and the children of Israel said unto them, Would that we had died by the hand of Jehovah in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-pots, when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.

And the children of Israel said to them, It would have been better for the Lord to have put us to death in the land of Egypt, where we were seated by the flesh-pots and had bread enough for our needs; for you have taken us out to this waste of sand, to put all this people to death through need of food.

Και ειπον προς αυτους οι υιοι Ισραηλ, Ειθε να απεθνησκομεν υπο της χειρος του Κυριου εν τη γη της Αιγυπτου, οτε εκαθημεθα πλησιον των λεβητων του κρεατος και οτε ετρωγομεν αρτον εις χορτασμον· διοτι εξηγαγετε ημας εις την ερημον ταυτην, δια να θανατωσητε με την πειναν πασαν την συναγωγην ταυτην.

And the children of Israel said unto them, Would to God we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots, and when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.
