BRAGADAYJAH
535
‘Not
only that,” Moses continued, “at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-Hattavah,
you provoked the Lord to wrath. Also when
the Lord sent you from Kadesh-Barnea and told you go up and possess the land
which He have given you, you rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your
God, and you believed Him not, nor hearkened to His voice. And you have been rebellious against the Lord
from the first day I met you.” “Accordingly I fell down before the Lord forty
days and forty nights as I did at the first because the Lord said He would
destroy you. I prayed unto the Lord and said, O Lord God destroy not your
people and your inheritance whom you have redeemed through your greatness, when
you brought them out of Egypt with a mighty hand. Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob; look not at the stubbornness of this people, nor to their wickedness nor
their sin, lest the land from which you brought us out say, because the Lord
was not able to bring them into the land which He promised them, and because He
hated them, He has brought them out to slay them in the wilderness.” “Yet they
are your people and your inheritance whom you brought out of Egypt with a
mighty hand, and an outstretched arm.
