Numbers 11:16-18

16The Lord therefore said to Moses, “Gather for Me 1seventy men from the elders of Israel, 2whom you know to be the elders of the people and their officers and bring them to the tent of meeting, and let them take their stand there with you.

173Then I will come down and speak with you there, and I will take of 4the Spirit who is upon you, and will put Him upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, so that you will not bear it all alone.

18Say to the people, ‘5Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat; for you have wept 6in the ears of the Lord, saying, “Oh that someone would give us meat to eat! For we were well-off in Egypt.” Therefore the Lord will give you meat and you shall eat.
