1 Then came the sons of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month; and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there and was buried there.
2 And there was no water for the congregation; and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
3 And the people contended with Moses and spoke, saying, Oh, that we had died when our brethren died before the Lord!
4 And why have ye caused the congregation of the Lord to come into this wilderness that we and our beasts should die here?
