Numbers 11
New International Version (1984) Help
11Now the people complained about their hardships in the hearing of the LORD, and when he heard them his anger was aroused. Then fire from the LORD burned among them and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.H5971H596H7451H241H3068H3068H8085H639H2734H784H3068H1197H398H7097H4264
2When the people cried out to Moses, he prayed to the LORD and the fire died down.H5971H6817H4872H4872H6419H3068H784H8257
3So that place was called Taberah, because fire from the LORD had burned among them.H7121H8034H1931H4725H8404H784H3068H1197
4The rabble with them began to crave other food, and again the Israelites started wailing and said, "If only we had meat to eat!H628H7130H183H8378H1121H3478H1058H7725H559H1320H398
5We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost--also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic.H2142H1710H398H4714H2600H7180H20H2682H1211H7762
6But now we have lost our appetite; we never see anything but this manna!"H5315H3002H1115H4478H5869
7The manna was like coriander seed and looked like resin.H4478H1407H2233H5869H5869H916
8The people went around gathering it, and then ground it in a handmill or crushed it in a mortar. They cooked it in a pot or made it into cakes. And it tasted like something made with olive oil.H5971H7751H3950H2912H7347H1743H4085H1310H6517H6213H5692H2940H2940H3955H8081
9When the dew settled on the camp at night, the manna also came down.H2919H3381H4264H3915H4478H3381
10Moses heard the people of every family wailing, each at the entrance to his tent. The LORD became exceedingly angry, and Moses was troubled.H4872H8085H5971H1058H4940H376H6607H168H639H3068H2734H3966H4872H7489H5869
11He asked the LORD, "Why have you brought this trouble on your servant? What have I done to displease you that you put the burden of all these people on me?H4872H559H3068H7489H5650H4672H2580H5869H7760H4853H5971
12Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth? Why do you tell me to carry them in my arms, as a nurse carries an infant, to the land you promised on oath to their forefathers?H2029H5971H3205H559H5375H2436H539H5375H3243H127H7650H1
13Where can I get meat for all these people? They keep wailing to me, 'Give us meat to eat!'H370H1320H5414H5971H1058H559H5414H1320H398
14I cannot carry all these people by myself; the burden is too heavy for me.H3201H5375H5971H905H3515
15If this is how you are going to treat me, put me to death right now--if I have found favor in your eyes--and do not let me face my own ruin."H6213H2026H2026H4672H2580H5869H7200H7451
16The LORD said to Moses: "Bring me seventy of Israel's elders who are known to you as leaders and officials among the people. Have them come to the Tent of Meeting, that they may stand there with you.H3068H559H4872H622H7657H376H2205H3478H3045H2205H5971H7860H3947H168H4150H3320
17I will come down and speak with you there, and I will take of the Spirit that is on you and put the Spirit on them. They will help you carry the burden of the people so that you will not have to carry it alone.H3381H1696H680H7307H7760H5375H4853H5971H5375
18"Tell the people: 'Consecrate yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, when you will eat meat. The LORD heard you when you wailed, "If only we had meat to eat! We were better off in Egypt!" Now the LORD will give you meat, and you will eat it.H559H5971H6942H4279H398H1320H1058H241H3068H559H1320H398H2895H4714H3068H5414H1320H398
19You will not eat it for just one day, or two days, or five, ten or twenty days,H398H259H3117H3117H2568H3117H6235H3117H6242H3117
20but for a whole month--until it comes out of your nostrils and you loathe it--because you have rejected the LORD, who is among you, and have wailed before him, saying, "Why did we ever leave Egypt?" '"H2320H3117H3318H639H2214H3282H3988H3068H7130H1058H6440H559H3318H4714
21But Moses said, "Here I am among six hundred thousand men on foot, and you say, 'I will give them meat to eat for a whole month!'H4872H559H5971H7130H8337H3967H505H7273H559H5414H1320H398H3117H2320
22Would they have enough if flocks and herds were slaughtered for them? Would they have enough if all the fish in the sea were caught for them?"H6629H1241H7819H4672H1709H3220H622H4672
23The LORD answered Moses, "Is the LORD'S arm too short? You will now see whether or not what I say will come true for you."H3068H559H4872H3068H3027H7114H7200H1697H7136
24So Moses went out and told the people what the LORD had said. He brought together seventy of their elders and had them stand around the Tent.H4872H3318H1696H5971H1697H3068H622H7657H376H2205H5971H5975H5439H168
25Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke with him, and he took of the Spirit that was on him and put the Spirit on the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did not do so again.H3068H3381H6051H1696H680H7307H5414H7657H2205H376H7307H5117H5012H3254
26However, two men, whose names were Eldad and Medad, had remained in the camp. They were listed among the elders, but did not go out to the Tent. Yet the Spirit also rested on them, and they prophesied in the camp.H7604H8147H582H4264H8034H259H419H8034H8145H4312H7307H5117H3789H3318H168H5012H4264
27A young man ran and told Moses, "Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp."H7323H5288H5046H4872H559H419H4312H5012H4264
28Joshua son of Nun, who had been Moses' aide since youth, spoke up and said, "Moses, my lord, stop them!"H3091H1121H5126H8334H4872H979H6030H559H113H4872H3607
29But Moses replied, "Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD'S people were prophets and that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!"H4872H559H7065H5414H3068H5971H5030H3068H5414H7307
30Then Moses and the elders of Israel returned to the camp.H4872H622H4264H2205H3478
31Now a wind went out from the LORD and drove quail in from the sea. It brought them down all around the camp to about three feet above the ground, as far as a day's walk in any direction.H5265H7307H3068H1468H7958H3220H5203H4264H3117H1870H3541H3117H1870H3541H5439H4264H520H6440H776
32All that day and night and all the next day the people went out and gathered quail. No one gathered less than ten homers. Then they spread them out all around the camp.H5971H6965H3117H3915H4283H3117H622H7958H4591H622H6235H2563H7849H7849H5439H4264
33But while the meat was still between their teeth and before it could be consumed, the anger of the LORD burned against the people, and he struck them with a severe plague.H1320H2962H8127H3772H639H3068H2734H5971H3068H5221H5971H3966H7227H4347
34Therefore the place was named Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who had craved other food.H7121H8034H4725H6914H6912H5971H183
35From Kibroth Hattaavah the people traveled to Hazeroth and stayed there.H5971H5265H6914H2698H2698
