*
And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea ,
to compass the land of Edom :
and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way .
*
And the people spake against God ,
and against Moses ,
Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness ?
for there is no bread ,
neither is there any water ;
and our soul loatheth this light bread .
*
And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people ,
and they bit the people ;
and much people of Israel died .
*
Therefore the people came to Moses ,
and said ,
We have sinned ,
for we have spoken against the LORD ,
and against thee ;
pray unto the LORD ,
that he take away the serpents from us .
And Moses prayed for the people .
