Numbers 14:3-5

International Standard Version

³ What’s the point in the Lord bringing us to this land? To die by the sword so our wives and children would become war victims? Wouldn’t it be better for us to return to Egypt?”

⁴ Then they told each other, “Let’s assign a leader and go back to Egypt.”

⁵ Moses and Aaron fell on their faces in front of the entire assembly of the congregation of Israel.
