The Israelites said to them,“ We wish the Lord had put us to death in Egypt. There we sat around pots of meat. We ate all the food we wanted. But you have brought us out into this desert. You must want this entire community to die of hunger.”

他们中间的闲杂人起了贪欲，甚至连以色列人也哭着说：“谁给我们肉吃呢？我们记得在埃及的时候，可以不花钱吃鱼，还有黄瓜、西瓜、韭菜、葱和蒜。

那些死于刀下的比饿死的还好；饿死的因缺乏田间的出产，就日渐消瘦而死亡。

人民在那里渴望得水喝，就向摩西发怨言，说：“你为什么把我们从埃及领上来，使我们和我们的儿女，以及我们的牲畜都渴死呢？”

人民与摩西争闹，说：“但愿我们的兄弟在耶和华面前死去的时候，我们也一同死去！你们为什么把耶和华的会众领到这旷野来，使我们和我们的牲畜都死在这里呢？你们为什么使我们出埃及，领我们到这坏地方来呢？这里不能撒种，没有无花果树、葡萄树、石榴树，也没有水喝。”
