And when the people{H5971} complained{H596}{(H8693)}, it displeased{H7451}{H241} the LORD{H3068}: and the LORD{H3068} heard{H8085}{(H8799)} it; and his anger{H639} was kindled{H2734}{(H8799)}; and the fire{H784} of the LORD{H3068} burnt{H1197}{(H8799)} among them, and consumed{H398}{(H8799)} them that were in the uttermost parts{H7097} of the camp{H4264}.

And the people{H5971} cried{H6817}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}; and when Moses{H4872} prayed{H6419}{(H8691)} unto the LORD{H3068}, the fire{H784} was quenched{H8257}{(H8799)}.

And he called{H7121}{(H8799)} the name{H8034} of the{H1931} place{H4725} Taberah{H8404}: because the fire{H784} of the LORD{H3068} burnt{H1197}{(H8804)} among them.

And the mixt multitude{H628} that was among{H7130} them fell a lusting{H183}{(H8694)}{H8378}: and the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} also wept{H1058}{(H8799)} again{H7725}{(H8799)}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Who shall give us flesh{H1320} to eat{H398}{(H8686)}?

We remember{H2142}{(H8804)} the fish{H1710}, which we did eat{H398}{(H8799)} in Egypt{H4714} freely{H2600}; the cucumbers{H7180}, and the melons{H20}, and the leeks{H2682}, and the onions{H1211}, and the garlick{H7762}:

But now our soul{H5315} is dried away{H3002}: there is nothing at all, beside{H1115} this manna{H4478}, before our eyes{H5869}.

And the manna{H4478} was as coriander{H1407} seed{H2233}, and the colour{H5869} thereof as the colour{H5869} of bdellium{H916}.

And the people{H5971} went about{H7751}{(H8804)}, and gathered{H3950}{(H8804)} it, and ground{H2912}{(H8804)} it in mills{H7347}, or beat{H1743}{(H8804)} it in a mortar{H4085}, and baked{H1310}{(H8765)} it in pans{H6517}, and made{H6213}{(H8804)} cakes{H5692} of it: and the taste{H2940} of it was as the taste{H2940} of fresh{H3955} oil{H8081}.

And when the dew{H2919} fell{H3381}{(H8800)} upon the camp{H4264} in the night{H3915}, the manna{H4478} fell{H3381}{(H8799)} upon it.

Then Moses{H4872} heard{H8085}{(H8799)} the people{H5971} weep{H1058}{(H8802)} throughout their families{H4940}, every man{H376} in the door{H6607} of his tent{H168}: and the anger{H639} of the LORD{H3068} was kindled{H2734}{(H8799)} greatly{H3966}; Moses{H4872} also was displeased{H7489}{(H8804)}{H5869}.

And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto the LORD{H3068}, Wherefore hast thou afflicted{H7489}{(H8689)} thy servant{H5650}? and wherefore have I not found{H4672}{(H8804)} favour{H2580} in thy sight{H5869}, that thou layest{H7760}{(H8800)} the burden{H4853} of all this people{H5971} upon me?

Have I conceived{H2029}{(H8804)} all this people{H5971}? have I begotten{H3205}{(H8804)} them, that thou shouldest say{H559}{(H8799)} unto me, Carry{H5375}{(H8798)} them in thy bosom{H2436}, as a nursing father{H539}{(H8802)} beareth{H5375}{(H8799)} the sucking child{H3243}{(H8802)}, unto the land{H127} which thou swarest{H7650}{(H8738)} unto their fathers{H1}?

Whence{H370} should I have flesh{H1320} to give{H5414}{(H8800)} unto all this people{H5971}? for they weep{H1058}{(H8799)} unto me, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Give{H5414}{(H8798)} us flesh{H1320}, that we may eat{H398}{(H8799)}.

I am not able{H3201}{(H8799)} to bear{H5375}{(H8800)} all this people{H5971} alone{H905}, because it is too heavy{H3515} for me.

And if thou deal{H6213}{(H8802)} thus with me, kill{H2026}{(H8798)} me, I pray thee, out of hand{H2026}{(H8800)}, if I have found{H4672}{(H8804)} favour{H2580} in thy sight{H5869}; and let me not see{H7200}{(H8799)} my wretchedness{H7451}.

And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}, Gather{H622}{(H8798)} unto me seventy{H7657} men{H376} of the elders{H2205} of Israel{H3478}, whom thou knowest{H3045}{(H8804)} to be the elders{H2205} of the people{H5971}, and officers{H7860}{(H8802)} over them; and bring{H3947}{(H8804)} them unto the tabernacle{H168} of the congregation{H4150}, that they may stand{H3320}{(H8694)} there with thee.

And I will come down{H3381}{(H8804)} and talk{H1696}{(H8765)} with thee there: and I will take{H680}{(H8804)} of the spirit{H7307} which is upon thee, and will put{H7760}{(H8804)} it upon them; and they shall bear{H5375}{(H8804)} the burden{H4853} of the people{H5971} with thee, that thou bear{H5375}{(H8799)} it not thyself alone.

And say{H559}{(H8799)} thou unto the people{H5971}, Sanctify{H6942}{(H8690)} yourselves against to morrow{H4279}, and ye shall eat{H398}{(H8804)} flesh{H1320}: for ye have wept{H1058}{(H8804)} in the ears{H241} of the LORD{H3068}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Who shall give us flesh{H1320} to eat{H398}{(H8686)}? for it was well{H2895}{(H8804)} with us in Egypt{H4714}: therefore the LORD{H3068} will give{H5414}{(H8804)} you flesh{H1320}, and ye shall eat{H398}{(H8804)}.

Ye shall not eat{H398}{(H8799)} one{H259} day{H3117}, nor two days{H3117}, nor five{H2568} days{H3117}, neither ten{H6235} days{H3117}, nor twenty{H6242} days{H3117};

But even a whole month{H2320}{H3117}, until it come out{H3318}{(H8799)} at your nostrils{H639}, and it be loathsome{H2214} unto you: because{H3282} that ye have despised{H3988}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} which is among{H7130} you, and have wept{H1058}{(H8799)} before{H6440} him, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Why came we forth{H3318}{(H8804)} out of Egypt{H4714}?

And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)}, The people{H5971}, among{H7130} whom I am, are six{H8337} hundred{H3967} thousand{H505} footmen{H7273}; and thou hast said{H559}{(H8804)}, I will give{H5414}{(H8799)} them flesh{H1320}, that they may eat{H398}{(H8804)} a whole{H3117} month{H2320}.

Shall the flocks{H6629} and the herds{H1241} be slain{H7819}{(H8735)} for them, to suffice{H4672}{(H8804)} them? or shall all the fish{H1709} of the sea{H3220} be gathered together{H622}{(H8735)} for them, to suffice{H4672}{(H8804)} them?

And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}, Is the LORD'S{H3068} hand{H3027} waxed short{H7114}{(H8799)}? thou shalt see{H7200}{(H8799)} now whether my word{H1697} shall come to pass{H7136}{(H8799)} unto thee or not.

And Moses{H4872} went out{H3318}{(H8799)}, and told{H1696}{(H8762)} the people{H5971} the words{H1697} of the LORD{H3068}, and gathered{H622}{(H8799)} the seventy{H7657} men{H376} of the elders{H2205} of the people{H5971}, and set{H5975}{(H8686)} them round about{H5439} the tabernacle{H168}.

And the LORD{H3068} came down{H3381}{(H8799)} in a cloud{H6051}, and spake{H1696}{(H8762)} unto him, and took{H680}{(H8686)} of the spirit{H7307} that was upon him, and gave{H5414}{(H8799)} it unto the seventy{H7657} elders{H2205}{H376}: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit{H7307} rested{H5117}{(H8800)} upon them, they prophesied{H5012}{(H8691)}, and did not cease{H3254}{(H8804)}.

But there remained{H7604}{(H8735)} two{H8147} of the men{H582} in the camp{H4264}, the name{H8034} of the one{H259} was Eldad{H419}, and the name{H8034} of the other{H8145} Medad{H4312}: and the spirit{H7307} rested{H5117}{(H8799)} upon them; and they were of them that were written{H3789}{(H8803)}, but went not out{H3318}{(H8804)} unto the tabernacle{H168}: and they prophesied{H5012}{(H8691)} in the camp{H4264}.

And there ran{H7323}{(H8799)} a young man{H5288}, and told{H5046}{(H8686)} Moses{H4872}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Eldad{H419} and Medad{H4312} do prophesy{H5012}{(H8693)} in the camp{H4264}.

And Joshua{H3091} the son{H1121} of Nun{H5126}, the servant{H8334}{(H8764)} of Moses{H4872}, one of his young men{H979}, answered{H6030}{(H8799)} and said{H559}{(H8799)}, My lord{H113} Moses{H4872}, forbid{H3607}{(H8798)} them.

And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Enviest{H7065}{(H8764)} thou for my sake? would God that all the{H5414}{(H8799)} LORD'S{H3068} people{H5971} were prophets{H5030}, and that the LORD{H3068} would put{H5414}{(H8799)} his spirit{H7307} upon them!

And Moses{H4872} gat{H622}{(H8735)} him into the camp{H4264}, he and the elders{H2205} of Israel{H3478}.

And there went forth{H5265}{(H8804)} a wind{H7307} from the LORD{H3068}, and brought{H1468}{(H8799)} quails{H7958} from the sea{H3220}, and let them fall{H5203}{(H8799)} by the camp{H4264}, as it were a day's{H3117} journey{H1870} on this side{H3541}, and as it were a day's{H3117} journey{H1870} on the other side{H3541}, round about{H5439} the camp{H4264}, and as it were two cubits{H520} high upon the face{H6440} of the earth{H776}.

And the people{H5971} stood up{H6965}{(H8799)} all that day{H3117}, and all that night{H3915}, and all the next{H4283} day{H3117}, and they gathered{H622}{(H8799)} the quails{H7958}: he that gathered least{H4591}{(H8688)} gathered{H622}{(H8804)} ten{H6235} homers{H2563}: and they spread{H7849}{(H8799)} them all abroad{H7849}{(H8800)} for themselves round about{H5439} the camp{H4264}.

And while the flesh{H1320} was yet{H2962} between their teeth{H8127}, ere it was chewed{H3772}{(H8735)}, the wrath{H639} of the LORD{H3068} was kindled{H2734}{(H8804)} against the people{H5971}, and the LORD{H3068} smote{H5221}{(H8686)} the people{H5971} with a very{H3966} great{H7227} plague{H4347}.

And he called{H7121}{(H8799)} the name{H8034} of that place{H4725} Kibrothhattaavah{H6914}: because there they buried{H6912}{(H8804)} the people{H5971} that lusted{H183}{(H8693)}.

And the people{H5971} journeyed{H5265}{(H8804)} from Kibrothhattaavah{H6914} unto Hazeroth{H2698}; and abode at Hazeroth{H2698}.
