And when the people
complained,
it displeased
the LORD:
and the LORD
heard
it; and his anger
was kindled;
and the fire
of the LORD
burnt
among them, and consumed
them that were in the uttermost parts
of the camp.
And the people
cried
unto Moses;
and when Moses
prayed
unto the LORD,
the fire
was quenched.
And he called
the name
of the
place
Taberah:
because the fire
of the LORD
burnt
among them.
And the mixt multitude
that was among
them fell a lusting:
and the children
of Israel
also wept
again,
and said,
Who shall give us flesh
to eat?
We remember
the fish,
which we did eat
in Egypt
freely;
the cucumbers,
and the melons,
and the leeks,
and the onions,
and the garlick:

But now our soul
is dried away:
there is nothing at all, beside
this manna,
before our eyes.
And the manna
was as coriander
seed,
and the colour
thereof as the colour
of bdellium.
And the people
went about,
and gathered
it, and ground
it in mills,
or beat
it in a mortar,
and baked
it in pans,
and made
cakes
of it: and the taste
of it was as the taste
of fresh
oil.

And when the dew
fell
upon the camp
in the night,
the manna
fell
upon it.
Then Moses
heard
the people
weep
throughout their families,
every man
in the door
of his tent:
and the anger
of the LORD
was kindled
greatly;
Moses
also was displeased.
And Moses
said
unto the LORD,
Wherefore hast thou afflicted
thy servant?
and wherefore have I not found
favour
in thy sight,
that thou layest
the burden
of all this people
upon me?
say
Have I conceived
all this people?
have I begotten
them, that thou shouldest say
unto me, Carry
them in thy bosom,
as a nursing father
beareth
the sucking child,
unto the land
which thou swarest
unto their fathers?

Whence
should I have flesh
to give
unto all this people?
for they weep
unto me, saying,
Give
us flesh,
that we may eat.
I am not able
to bear
all this people
alone,
because it is too heavy
for me.
And if thou deal
thus with me, kill
me, I pray thee, out of hand,
if I have found
favour
in thy sight;
and let me not see
my wretchedness.
And the LORD
said
unto Moses,
Gather
unto me seventy
men
of the elders
of Israel,
whom thou knowest
to be the elders
of the people,
and officers
over them; and bring
them unto the tabernacle
of the congregation,
that they may stand
there with thee.

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, that thou bear
it not thyself alone.
And say
thou unto the people,
Sanctify
yourselves against to morrow,
and ye shall eat
flesh:
for ye have wept
in the ears
of the LORD,
saying,
Who shall give us flesh
to eat?
for it was well
with us in Egypt:
therefore the LORD
will give
you flesh,
and ye shall eat.
Ye shall not eat
one
day,
nor two days,
nor five
days,
neither ten
days,
nor twenty
days;
But even a whole month,
until it come out
at your nostrils,
and it be loathsome
unto you: because
that ye have despised
the LORD
which is among
you, and have wept
before
him, saying,
Why came we forth
out of Egypt?

And the LORD
said
unto Moses,
Is the LORD'S
hand
waxed short?
thou shalt see
now whether my word
shall come to pass
unto thee or not.
And Moses
went out,
and told
the people
the words
of the LORD,
and gathered
the seventy
men
of the elders
of the people,
and set
them round about
the tabernacle.
And the LORD
came down
in a cloud,
and spake
unto him, and took
of the spirit
that was upon him, and gave
it unto the seventy
elders:
and it came to pass, that, when the spirit
rested
upon them, they prophesied,
and did not cease.

But there remained
two
of the men
in the camp,
the name
of the one
was Eldad,
and the name
of the other
Medad:
and the spirit
rested
upon them; and they were of them that were written,
but went not out
unto the tabernacle:
and they prophesied
in the camp.

And Joshua
the son

the servant
of Moses,
one of his young men,
answered
and said,
My lord
Moses,
forbid
them.
And Moses
said
unto him, Enviest
thou for my sake? would God that all the
LORD'S
people
were prophets,
and that the LORD
would put
his spirit
upon them!
And Moses
gat
him into the camp,
he and the elders
of Israel.
And there went forth
a wind
from the LORD,
and brought
quails
from the sea,
and let them fall
by the camp,
as it were a day's
journey
on this side,
and as it were a day's
journey
on the other side,
round about
the camp,
and as it were two cubits
high upon the face

And while the flesh
was yet
between their teeth,
ere it was chewed,
the wrath
of the LORD
was kindled
against the people,
and the LORD
smote
the people
with a very
great
plague.
And he called
the name
of that place
Kibrothhattaavah:
because there they buried
the people
that lusted.
And the people
journeyed
from Kibrothhattaavah
unto Hazeroth;
and abode at Hazeroth.
