Numbers 20:2 in context

The verses around it, from Numbers 20.

1 In the first month, the whole congregation of Israel entered the Wilderness of Zin and stayed in Kadesh. There Miriam died and was buried.

2 Now there was no water for the congregation, so they gathered against Moses and Aaron.

3 The people quarreled with Moses and said, “If only we had perished with our brothers before the LORD!

4 Why have you brought the LORD’s assembly into this wilderness for us and our livestock to die here?

5 Why have you led us up out of Egypt to bring us to this wretched place? It is not a place of grain, figs, vines, or pomegranates—and there is no water to drink!”

6 Then Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. They fell facedown, and the glory of the LORD appeared to them.
