Bamidbar 20:2-4

Orthodox Jewish Bible

² And there was no mayim for the Edah; and they gathered themselves together against Moshe and against Aharon.

³ And the people contended with Moshe, and spoke, saying, If only we had died when our brethren died before Hashem!

⁴ And why have ye brought up the Kahal Hashem into this midbar, that we and our livestock should die here?
