Numbers 11:25-29

25Then the LORDH3068 came downH3381 in the cloudH6051 and spokeH1696 to himH413, and He tookH680 some ofH4480 the SpiritH7307 thatH834 was onH5921 Moses and placedH5414 that Spirit onH5921 the seventyH7657H376 eldersH2205H1961. As the SpiritH7307 restedH5117 on themH5921, they prophesiedH5012—but they neverH3808 did so againH3254.

26TwoH8147 menH582, however, had remainedH7604 in the campH4264—oneH259 namedH8034 EldadH419H8034 and the otherH8145 MedadH4312—and the SpiritH7307 restedH5117 on themH5921. TheyH1992 were among those listedH3789, but they had notH3808 gone outH3318 to the tentH168, and they prophesiedH5012 in the campH4264. 27A young manH5288 ranH7323 and reportedH5046 to MosesH4872H559, “EldadH419 and MedadH4312 are prophesyingH5012 in the campH4264.”

28JoshuaH3091 sonH1121 of NunH5126, the attendantH8334 to MosesH4872 since youthH979, spoke upH6030 and saidH559, “MosesH4872, my lordH113, stop themH3607!”

29But MosesH4872 repliedH559, “Are youH859 jealousH7065 on my accountH4310? I wish thatH5414 allH3605 the LORD’sH3068 peopleH5971 were prophetsH5030 and thatH3588 the LORDH3068 would placeH5414 His SpiritH7307 on themH5921!”
