Bible Verses About Intercessory Prayer: Those who murmur against God

But the people began complaining about their hardships to ADONAI. When ADONAI heard it, his anger flared up, so that fire from ADONAI broke out against them and consumed the outskirts of the camp.

Then the people cried to Moshe, Moshe prayed to ADONAI, and the fire abated.

However, Moshe replied to ADONAI, "When the Egyptians hear about this -[and they will,] because it was from among them that you, by your strength, brought this people up -

Please! Forgive the offense of this people according to the greatness of your grace, just as you have borne with this people from Egypt until now."
