Numbers 14:40-45). Verse 41. - We have sinned; in Numbers it is simply said that "the people mourned greatly" (bemoaned themselves, יִתְאַבְּלוּ); but this is not incompatible with the statement here that they confessed their sins; the one would naturally accompany the ether.

The Rabbins compare it with the הננו, lo we! here we be! of the people in Numbers 14:40.

None of the ancient versions, however, give this meaning.
