As the Egyptian army comes into sight, the Israelites become terrified and cry out to Moses: “Is it because there are no burial places at all in Egypt that you have taken us here to die in the wilderness? ”
وَعِنْدَمَا صَارَ ٱلْجَيْشُ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّ عَلَى مَرْأًى مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ ،‏ ٱرْتَعَبَ ٱلْإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ وَصَرَخُوا إِلَى مُوسَى قَائِلِينَ :‏ « هَلْ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَتْ قُبُورٌ فِي مِصْرَ أَخَذْتَنَا لِنَمُوتَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ ؟‏ » .‏
