71 : Basic English : Numbers 14; Psalms 52,53,54 1. Then all the people gave load cries of grief, and all that night they gave themselves up to weeping.

2. And all the children of Israel, crying out against Moses and Aaron, said, If only we had come to our death in the land of Egypt, or even in this waste land!

3. Why is the Lord taking us into this land to come to our death by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will get into strange hands: would it not be better for us to go back to Egypt?

4. And they said to one another, Let us make a captain over us, and go back to Egypt.

5. Then Moses and Aaron went down on their faces before the meeting of the people.
