Dixeruntque filii Israël ad eos: Utinam mortui essemus per manum Domini in terra Ægypti, quando sedebamus super ollas carnium, et comedebamus panem in saturitate: cur eduxistis nos in desertum istud, ut occideretis omnem multitudinem fame?
And the children of Israel said to them: Would to God we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat over the fleshpots, and ate bread to the full: Why have you brought us into this desert, that you might destroy all the multitude with famine?
Et filios Israële dic ad illos: utinam more es per manu de Domino in terra de Aegypto, quando sede super ollas de carnios, et comede pane in saturitate: quare educe nos in deserto isto, ut occide omni multitudine fame?
