<t /><n id="1" /><p class="bodytext">Then all the community raised a loud cry,<n id="2" /> and the people wept<n id="3" /> that night.

All the Israelites<n id="1" /> who were around them fled at their cry,<n id="2" /> for they said, &#8220;What if<n id="3" /> the earth swallows us too?&#8221;

So when we cried to the <sc>Lordsc>, he heard our voice and sent a messenger,<n id="1" /> and has brought us up out of Egypt. Now<n id="2" /> we are here in Kadesh, a town on the edge of your country.<n id="3" />

The <sc>Lordsc> listened to the voice of Israel and delivered up the Canaanites,<n id="1" /> and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. So the name of the place was called<n id="2" /> Hormah.p>

<p class="bodytext">Now when Moses went into<n id="1" /> the tent of meeting to speak with the <sc>Lordsc>,<n id="2" /> he heard the voice speaking to him from above the atonement lid<n id="3" /> that was on the ark of the testimony, from between the two cherubim.<n id="4" /> Thus he spoke to him.p>

For all the people have seen my glory and my signs that I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and yet have tempted<n id="1" /> me now these ten times,<n id="2" /> and have not obeyed me,<n id="3" />
