16 1The Israelites come to the desert of Sin, and murmur against Moses and Aaron. 13 The Lord sendeth Quails and Manna. 23 The Sabbath is sanctified unto the Lord. 27 The seventh day Manna could not be found.  32 It is kept for a remembrance to the posterity.

And the whole Congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses, and against Aaron in the wilderness.

For the children of Israel said to them, Oh that we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh [b]pots, when we ate bread our bellies full: for ye have brought us out into this wilderness, to kill this whole company with famine.
