Numbers 20:3 in Context — Numbers 20
1 Toute l’assemblée des enfants d’Israël arriva dans le désert de Tsin le premier mois, et le peuple s’arrêta à Kadès. C’est là que mourut Marie, et qu’elle fut enterrée.
2 Il n’y avait point d’eau pour l’assemblée; et l’on se souleva contre Moïse et Aaron.
3 Le peuple chercha querelle à Moïse. Ils dirent: Que n’avons-nous expiré, quand nos frères expirèrent devant l’Éternel?
4 Pourquoi avez-vous fait venir l’assemblée de l’Éternel dans ce désert, pour que nous y mourions, nous et notre bétail?
5 Pourquoi nous avez-vous fait monter hors d’Égypte, pour nous amener dans ce méchant lieu? Ce n’est pas un lieu où l’on puisse semer, et il n’y a ni figuier, ni vigne, ni grenadier, ni d’eau à boire.
