Numbers 11:13-22
13WhereH4480H370 am I to get meatH1320 to giveH5414 to 1allH3605 thisH2088 peopleH5971? For they weepH1058 beforeH5921 me, sayingH559, ‘GiveH5414 us meatH1320 that we may eatH398!’ 142I aloneH905 am not ableH3201 to carryH5375 allH3605 thisH2088 peopleH5971, becauseH3588 it is tooH4480 3burdensomeH3515 for me. 154So ifH518 You are going to dealH6213 thusH3602 with me, pleaseH4994 killH2026 me at onceH2026, ifH518 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in Your sightH5869, and do not let me seeH7200 my wretchednessH7463.”
16The LordH3068 therefore saidH559 to MosesH4872, “GatherH622 for Me 5seventyH7657 menH376 from the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, 6whomH834 you knowH3045 to be the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971 and their officersH7860 and bringH3947 them to the tentH168 of meetingH4150, and let them takeH3320 their standH3320 thereH8033 with you. 177Then I will comeH3381 downH3381 and speakH1696 with you thereH8033, and I will takeH680 of 8the SpiritH7307 whoH834 is upon you, and will putH7760 Him upon them; and they shall bearH5375 the burdenH4853 of the peopleH5971 with you, so that you will not bearH5375 it all aloneH905. 18SayH559 to the peopleH5971, ‘9ConsecrateH6942 yourselves for tomorrowH4279, and you shall eatH398 meatH1320; for you have weptH1058 10in the earsH241 of the LordH3068, sayingH559, “OhH4310 that someoneH4310 would give us meatH1320 to eatH398! For we were well-offH2895 in EgyptH4714.” Therefore the LordH3068 will giveH5414 you meatH1320 and you shall eatH398. 19You shall eatH398, not oneH259 dayH3117, norH3808 two daysH3117, norH3808 fiveH2568 daysH3117, norH3808 tenH6235 daysH3117, norH3808 twentyH6242 daysH3117, 2011but a wholeH3117 monthH2320, untilH5704H834 it comesH3318 out of your nostrilsH639 and becomesH1961 loathsomeH2214 to you; becauseH3282H3588 12you have rejectedH3988 the LordH3068 whoH834 is amongH7130 you and have weptH1058 beforeH6440 Him, sayingH559, “WhyH4100 did we everH2088 leaveH3318H4480 EgyptH4714?”’” 21But MosesH4872 saidH559, “The peopleH5971, amongH7130 whomH834 I am, are 600,000H8337H3967H505 on footH7273; yet You have saidH559, ‘I will giveH5414 them meatH1320, so that they may eatH398 for a wholeH3117 monthH2320.’ 22Should flocksH6629 and herdsH1241 be slaughteredH7819 for them, to be sufficientH4672 for them? OrH518 should allH3605 the fishH1709 of the seaH3220 be gatheredH622 together for them, to be sufficientH4672 for them?”
