King James Version
Numbers 11:4-15
4And the mixt multitudeH628 that was amongH7130 them fell a lustingH8378H183: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 also weptH1058 againH7725, and saidH559, Who shall give us fleshH1320 to eatH398?12 5We rememberH2142 the fishH1710, which we did eatH398 in EgyptH4714 freelyH2600; the cucumbersH7180, and the melonsH20, and the leeksH2682, and the onionsH1211, and the garlickH7762: 6But now our soulH5315 is dried awayH3002: there is nothing at all, besideH1115 this mannaH4478, before our eyesH5869. 7And the mannaH4478 was as corianderH1407 seedH2233, and the colourH5869 thereof as the colourH5869 of bdelliumH916.3 8And the peopleH5971 went aboutH7751, and gatheredH3950 it, and groundH2912 it in millsH7347, or beatH1743 it in a mortarH4085, and bakedH1310 it in pansH6517, and madeH6213 cakesH5692 of it: and the tasteH2940 of it was as the tasteH2940 of freshH3955 oilH8081. 9And when the dewH2919 fellH3381 upon the campH4264 in the nightH3915, the mannaH4478 fellH3381 upon it.
10Then MosesH4872 heardH8085 the peopleH5971 weepH1058 throughout their familiesH4940, every manH376 in the doorH6607 of his tentH168: and the angerH639 of the LordH3068 was kindledH2734 greatlyH3966; MosesH4872 also was displeasedH5869H7489. 11And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto the LordH3068, Wherefore hast thou afflictedH7489 thy servantH5650? and wherefore have I not foundH4672 favourH2580 in thy sightH5869, that thou layestH7760 the burdenH4853 of all this peopleH5971 upon me? 12Have I conceivedH2029 all this peopleH5971? have I begottenH3205 them, that thou shouldest sayH559 unto me, CarryH5375 them in thy bosomH2436, as a nursing fatherH539 bearethH5375 the sucking childH3243, unto the landH127 which thou swarestH7650 unto their fathersH1? 13WhenceH370 should I have fleshH1320 to giveH5414 unto all this peopleH5971? for they weepH1058 unto me, sayingH559, GiveH5414 us fleshH1320, that we may eatH398. 14I am not ableH3201 to bearH5375 all this peopleH5971 aloneH905, because it is too heavyH3515 for me. 15And if thou dealH6213 thus with me, killH2026 me, I pray thee, out of handH2026, if I have foundH4672 favourH2580 in thy sightH5869; and let me not seeH7200 my wretchednessH7451.
