Numbers 20:1-5 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. In the first month all the people of Israel arrived at the Desert of Zin. They stayed at Kadesh. There Miriam died and was buried.

2. There was no water for the people. So they came together against Moses and Aaron.

3. They argued with Moses. They said, “We should have died in front of the Lord as our brothers did.

4. Why did you bring the Lord’s people into this desert? Are we and our animals to die here?

5. Why did you bring us from Egypt to this terrible place? It has no grain, figs or pomegranates. And there’s no water to drink!”
