فَأَتَى الشَّعْبُ إِلَى مُوسَى وَقَالُوا: «قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا إِذْ تَكَلَّمْنَا عَلَى الرَّبِّ وَعَلَيْكَ، فَصَلِّ إِلَى الرَّبِّ لِيَرْفَعَ عَنَّا الْحَيَّاتِ». فَصَلَّى مُوسَى لأَجْلِ الشَّعْبِ.
Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD, and against thee; pray unto the LORD, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
