2 Och Israels barns hela menighet knorrade emot Mose och Aron i öknen;

3 Israels barn sade till dem: »Ack att vi hade fått dö för HERRENS hand i Egyptens land, där vi sutto vid köttgrytorna och hade mat nog att äta! Men I haven fört oss hitut i öknen för att låta hela denna hop dö av hunger.»

2 And all the children of Israel were crying out against Moses and Aaron in the waste land:

3 And the children of Israel said to them, It would have been better for the Lord to have put us to death in the land of Egypt, where we were seated by the flesh-pots and had bread enough for our needs; for you have taken us out to this waste of sand, to put all this people to death through need of food.
