Numbers 11:1-10

1Now the people became like 1those who complain of adversity 2in the ears of the Lord; and the Lord heard them and His anger was kindled, and the fire of the Lord burned among them and consumed some at the outskirts of the camp. 23The people then cried out to Moses; and Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire 4died out. 3So that place was named 56Taberah, because the fire of the Lord burned among them.

4Now the 7rabble who were among them 8had greedy cravings; and the sons of Israel also wept again and said, “9Who will give us 10meat to eat? 511We remember the fish which we used to eat for free in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic; 6but now 12our 13appetite is gone. There is nothing at all 14to look at except this manna!”

715Now the manna was like coriander seed, and its appearance like that of 1617bdellium. 8The people would roam about and gather it and grind it 18between two millstones, or pound it in the mortar, and boil it in the pot and make loaves with it; and its taste was like the taste of 19cake baked with oil. 920When the dew came down on the camp at night, the manna would come down 21with it.

10Now Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, each one at the entrance of his tent; and the anger of the Lord became very hot, and 22Moses was displeased.
