## Numbers 14:4-6 in Context (Verses 1–9 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/numbers/14/1) And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
 
 [2 ](/kjv/numbers/14/2) And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would God we had died in this wilderness!
 
 [3 ](/kjv/numbers/14/3) And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land, to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?
 
 [4 ](/kjv/numbers/14/4) And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/numbers/14/5) Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/numbers/14/6) ¶ And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, *which were* of them that searched the land, rent their clothes:
 
 [7 ](/kjv/numbers/14/7) And they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search it, *is* an exceeding good land.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/numbers/14/8) If the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/numbers/14/9) Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they *are* bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the LORD *is* with us: fear them not.*
