New International Version

Numbers 27:14-17 New International Version (NIV)

14. for when the community rebelled at the waters in the Desert of Zin, both of you disobeyed my command to honor me as holy before their eyes.” (These were the waters of Meribah Kadesh, in the Desert of Zin.)

15. Moses said to the Lord,

16. “May the Lord, the God who gives breath to all living things, appoint someone over this community

17. to go out and come in before them, one who will lead them out and bring them in, so the Lord’s people will not be like sheep without a shepherd.”
