New American Standard Bible 1995
Numbers 11:31-34
311Now there went forth a wind from the Lord and it brought quail from the sea, and let them fall beside the camp, about a day’s journey on this side and a day’s journey on the other side, all around the camp and 2about two 3cubits deep on the surface of the ground.
32The people 4spent all day and all night and all the next day, and gathered the quail (he who gathered least gathered ten 56homers) and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp.
337While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the anger of the Lord was kindled against the people, and the Lord struck the people with a very severe plague.
34So the name of that place was called 89Kibroth-hattaavah, because there they buried the people who had been greedy.
