Your grumbling is not iagainst us but against the Lord.”Numbers 11:1-6
The People Complain
1And jthe people complained in the hearing of the Lord about their misfortunes, and when the Lord heard it, khis anger was kindled, and lthe fire of the Lord burned among them and consumed some outlying parts of the camp. 2Then mthe people cried out to Moses, nand Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire died down. 3So the name of that place was called oTaberah, ▼▼ Taberah means burning
because the fire of the Lord burned among them. 4Now the qrabble that was among them had a strong craving. And the people of Israel also rwept again and said, s“Oh that we had meat to eat! 5 tWe remember the fish we ate in Egypt that cost nothing, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic. 6But now our strength is dried up, and there is nothing at all but this manna to look at.”

Would it not be better for us to go back to Egypt?” 4And they said to one another, y“Let us choose a leader and zgo back to Egypt.”Numbers 16:13-14
13Is it aaa small thing that you have brought us up out of aba land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, that you must also acmake yourself a prince over us? 14Moreover, you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards.
