Thou hast led as a flock Thy people, By the hand of Moses and Aaron!

A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, a habitation Thou -- Thou hast been, To us -- in generation and generation,

Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His name. They are calling unto Jehovah, And He doth answer them.

He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel His acts.

He hath sent Moses His servant, Aaron whom He had fixed on.

And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron, Jehovah's holy one.

And He saith to destroy them, Unless Moses, His chosen one, Had stood in the breach before Him, To turn back His wrath from destroying.

And they cause wrath by the waters of Meribah, And it is evil to Moses for their sakes,
