11 Then Moses said to Jehovah: “Why have you caused evil to your servant,* and why have I not found favor in your eyes, in placing the load of all this people upon me?+

3 And the people went quarreling+ with Moses* and saying: “If only we had expired when our brothers expired before Jehovah!+

14 inasmuch as YOU men rebelled against my order in the wilderness of Zin at the quarreling of the assembly,+ in relation to sanctifying+ me* by the waters before their eyes. These are the waters of Merʹi·bah+ at Kaʹdesh+ in the wilderness of Zin.”+
