Numbers 14:2-11

2And all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 murmuredH3885 against MosesH4872 and against AaronH175: and the whole congregationH5712 saidH559 unto them, Would GodH3863 that we had diedH4191 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714! or would GodH3863 we had diedH4191 in this wildernessH4057! 3And wherefore hath YhwhH3068 broughtH935 us unto this landH776, to fallH5307 by the swordH2719, that our wivesH802 and our childrenH2945 should be a preyH957? were it not betterH2896 for us to returnH7725 into EgyptH4714? 4And they saidH559 oneH376 to anotherH251, Let us makeH5414 a captainH7218, and let us returnH7725 into EgyptH4714. 5Then MosesH4872 and AaronH175 fellH5307 on their facesH6440 beforeH6440 all the assemblyH6951 of the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.

6And JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, and CalebH3612 the sonH1121 of JephunnehH3312, which were of them that searchedH8446 the landH776, rentH7167 their clothesH899: 7And they spakeH559 unto all the companyH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, The landH776, which we passedH5674 through to searchH8446 it, is an exceedingH3966 goodH2896 landH776. 8If YhwhH3068 delightH2654 in us, then he will bringH935 us into this landH776, and giveH5414 it us; a landH776 which flowethH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706. 9Only rebelH4775 not ye against YhwhH3068, neither fearH3372 ye the peopleH5971 of the landH776; for they are breadH3899 for us: their defenceH6738 is departedH5493 from them, and YhwhH3068 is with us: fearH3372 them not.1 10But all the congregationH5712 badeH559 stoneH7275 them with stonesH68. And the gloryH3519 of YhwhH3068 appearedH7200 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150 before all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.

11And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, How long will this peopleH5971 provokeH5006 me? and how long will it be ereH3808 they believeH539 me, for all the signsH226 which I have shewedH6213 amongH7130 them?
