¹ Now the people became like those who complain of adversity in the hearing of the LORD; and when the LORD heard it, His anger was kindled, and the fire of the LORD burned among them and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp. ² The people therefore cried out to Moses, and Moses prayed to the LORD and the fire^a Lit sank downdied out. ³ So the name of that place was called^b I.e. burningTaberah, because the fire of the LORD burned among them.	1 Num 14:2 Num 16:11 Num 17:5 Num 11:18 Num 14:28 2 Num 12:11 Num 12:13 Num 21:7 3 Deu 9:22
⁴ The rabble who were among them^c Lit desired a desirehad greedy desires; and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, “Who will give us^d Lit flesh, and so throughout the chmeat to eat? ⁵ We remember the fish which we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic, ⁶ but now our^e Lit soul is dried upappetite is gone. There is nothing at all^f Lit for our eyesto look at except this manna.”	4 Exo 12:38 Co1 10:6 Psa 78:20 5 Exo 16:3 6 Num 21:5
⁷ Now the manna was like coriander seed, and its appearance like that of bdellium. ⁸ The people would go about and gather it and grind it^g Lit withbetween two millstones or beat it in the mortar, and boil it in the pot and make cakes with it; and its taste was as the taste of^h Lit juice of oilcakes baked with oil. ⁹ When the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna would fallⁱ Lit onwith it.	7 Exo 16:31 Gen 2:12 9 Exo 16:13 Exo 16:14
¹⁰ Now Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, each man at the doorway of his tent; and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly, and^j Lit it was evil in Moses’ sightMoses was displeased. ¹¹ So Moses said to the LORD, “Why have You^k Lit dealt ill withbeen so hard on Your servant? And why have I not found favor in Your sight, that You have laid the burden of all this people on me? ¹² Was it I who conceived all this people? Was it I who brought them forth, that You should say to me, ‘Carry them in your bosom as a^l Or foster-fathernurse carries a nursing infant, to the land which You swore to their fathers’? ¹³ Where am I to get meat to give to all this people? For they weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat that we may eat!’ ¹⁴ I alone am not able to carry all this people, because it is too^m Lit heavyburdensome for me. ¹⁵ So if You are going to deal thus with me, please kill me at once, if I have found favor in Your sight, and do not let me see my wretchedness.”	11 Exo 5:22 Deu 1:12 12 Ki2 10:1 Ki2 10:5 Isa 49:23 Gen 24:7 Exo 13:5 Exo 13:11 Exo 33:1 13 Num 11:21 Num 11:22 Joh 6:5-9 14 Exo 18:18 Deu 1:12 15 Exo 32:32
¹⁶ The LORD therefore said to Moses, “Gather for Me seventy men from the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and their officers and bring them to the tent of meeting, and let them take their stand there with you. ¹⁷ Then I will come down and speak with you there, and I will take of the Spirit who is upon you, and will put Him upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, so that you will not bear it all alone. ¹⁸ Say to the people, ‘Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, “Oh that someone would give us meat to eat! For we were well-off in Egypt.” Therefore the LORD will give you meat and you shall eat. ¹⁹ You shall eat, not one day, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days, ²⁰ ⁿ Lit untilbut a whole month, until it comes out of your nostrils and becomes loathsome to you; because you have rejected the LORD who is among you and have wept before Him, saying, “Why did we ever leave Egypt?”’” ²¹ But Moses said, “The people, among whom I am, are 600,000 on foot; yet You have said, ‘I will give them meat, so that they may eat for a whole month.’ ²² Should flocks and herds be slaughtered for them, to be sufficient for them? Or should all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to be sufficient for them?” ²³ The LORD said to Moses, “Is the LORD’S^o Lit hand shortpower limited? Now you shall see whether My word will^p Lit befall youcome true for you or not.”	16 Exo 24:1 Exo 24:9 Exo 18:25 17 Num 11:25 Sa1 10:6 Joe 2:28 18 Exo 19:10 Exo 19:22 Num 11:1 20 Jos 24:27 Sa1 10:19 23 Isa 50:2 Isa 59:1 Eze 12:25 Eze 24:14
²⁴ So Moses went out and told the people the words of the LORD. Also, he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and stationed them around the tent. ²⁵ Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke to him; and He took of the Spirit who was upon him and placed Him upon the seventy elders. And when the Spirit rested upon them, they prophesied. But they did not do it again.	24 Num 11:16 25 Num 11:17 Num 12:5
²⁶ But two men had remained in the camp; the name of one was Eldad and the name of the^q Lit secondother Medad. And the Spirit rested upon them (now they were among those who had been registered, but had not gone out to the tent), and they prophesied in the camp. ²⁷ So a young man ran and told Moses and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.” ²⁸ Then Joshua the son of Nun, the attendant of Moses from his youth, said, “Moses, my lord, restrain them.” ²⁹ But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the LORD’S people were prophets, that the LORD would put His Spirit upon them!” ³⁰ Then Moses^r Lit removed himselfreturned to the camp, both he and the elders of Israel.	26 Num 24:2 Sa1 10:6 Ch2 15:1 Neh 9:30 28 Exo 33:11 Jos 1:1 Mar 9:38-40 29 Co1 14:5
³¹ Now there went forth a wind from the LORD and it brought quail from the sea, and let them fall beside the camp, about a day’s journey on this side and a day’s journey on the other side, all around the camp and^s Or from about two cubits aboveabout two^t I.e. One cubit equals approx 18 in.cubits deep on the surface of the ground. ³² The people^u Lit rosespent all day and all night and all the next day, and gathered the quail (he who gathered least gathered ten^v I.e. One homer equals approx 11 buhomers) and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp. ³³ While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the anger of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD struck the people with a very severe plague. ³⁴ So the name of that place was called^w I.e. the graves of greedinessKibroth-hattaavah, because there they buried the people who had been greedy. ³⁵ From Kibroth-hattaavah the people set out for Hazeroth, and they^x Lit wereremained at Hazeroth.	31 Exo 16:13 Psa 78:26-28 Psa 105:40 32 Eze 45:11 33 Psa 78:29-31 Psa 106:15 34 Deu 9:22 35 Num 33:17
