Exodus

And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt:

Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.

And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?

Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.

And all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night.
