dby@Numbers:11:4 @ And the mixed multitude that was among them lusted; and the children of Israel also wept again and said, Who will give us flesh to eat?

dby@Numbers:11:5 @ We remember the fish that we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;

dby@Numbers:11:6 @ and now our soul is dried up: there is nothing at all but the manna before our eyes.

dby@Numbers:11:7 @ And the manna was as coriander seed, and its appearance as the appearance of bdellium.

dby@Numbers:11:8 @ The people went about, and gathered it, and ground it with hand-mills, or beat it in mortars, and boiled it in pots, and made cakes of it; and the taste of it was as the taste of oil-cakes.

dby@Numbers:11:9 @ And when the dew fell upon the camp by night, the manna fell upon it.

dby@Numbers:11:10 @ And Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every one at the entrance of his tent; and the anger of Jehovah was kindled greatly; it was also evil in the eyes of Moses.

dby@Numbers:11:11 @ And Moses said to Jehovah, Why hast thou done evil to thy servant, and why have I not found favour in thine eyes, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?

dby@Numbers:11:12 @ Have I conceived all this people, have I brought them forth, that thou sayest to me, Carry them in thy bosom, as the nursing-father beareth the suckling, unto the land which thou didst swear unto their fathers?

dby@Numbers:11:13 @ Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh that we may eat!

dby@Numbers:11:14 @ I am not able to bear all this people alone, for it is too heavy for me.

dby@Numbers:11:15 @ And if thou deal thus with me, slay me, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes, that I may not behold my wretchedness.

dby@Numbers:11:16 @ And Jehovah said to Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and their officers; and take them to the tent of meeting, and they shall stand there with thee.

dby@Numbers:11:17 @ And I will come down and talk with thee there; and I will take of the Spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, and thou shalt not bear it alone.

dby@Numbers:11:18 @ And unto the people shalt thou say, Hallow yourselves for to-morrow, and ye shall eat flesh; for ye have wept in the ears of Jehovah, saying, Who will give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt; and Jehovah will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.

dby@Numbers:11:19 @ Not one day shall ye eat, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;

dby@Numbers:11:20 @ [but] for a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it become loathsome unto you; because that ye have despised Jehovah who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?

dby@Numbers:11:21 @ And Moses said, The people in whose midst I am are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou sayest, I will give them flesh that they may eat a whole month.

dby@Numbers:11:22 @ Shall flocks and herds be slaughtered for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered for them, to suffice them?

dby@Numbers:11:23 @ And Jehovah said to Moses, Hath Jehovah's hand become short? Now shalt thou see whether my word will come to pass unto thee or not.

dby@Numbers:11:24 @ And Moses went out and told the people the words of Jehovah; and he gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tent.

dby@Numbers:11:25 @ And Jehovah came down in a cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy men, the elders; and it came to pass, that when the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did not repeat [it].

dby@Numbers:11:26 @ And two men remained in the camp, the name of the one, Eldad, and the name of the other, Medad; and the Spirit rested upon them (and they were among them that were written, but they had not gone out to the tent); and they prophesied in the camp.

dby@Numbers:11:27 @ And there ran a youth, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.

dby@Numbers:11:28 @ And Joshua the son of Nun, the attendant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them!

dby@Numbers:11:29 @ But Moses said to him, Enviest thou for my sake? would that all Jehovah's people were prophets, [and] that Jehovah would put his Spirit upon them!

dby@Numbers:11:30 @ And Moses withdrew into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.

dby@Numbers:11:31 @ And there went forth a wind from Jehovah, and drove quails from the sea, and cast them about the camp, about a day's journey on this side, and about a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and about two cubits above the earth.

dby@Numbers:11:32 @ And the people rose up all that day, and the whole night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered little gathered ten homers; and they spread them abroad for themselves round about the camp.

dby@Numbers:11:33 @ The flesh was yet between their teeth, before it was chewed, when the wrath of Jehovah was kindled against the people, and Jehovah smote the people with a very great plague.

dby@Numbers:11:34 @ And they called the name of that place Kibroth-hattaavah; because there they buried the people who lusted.

dby@Numbers:11:35 @ From Kibroth-hattaavah the people journeyed to Hazeroth; and they were at Hazeroth.
