Numbers 11:18-23

18And you shall say to the people, ‘1Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat; for you have wept 2in the ears of the Lord, saying, “3Oh 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. 19You shall eat, not one day, nor two days, nor five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days, 204but for a whole month, until it comes out of your nose and 5makes you nauseated; because 6you have rejected the Lord who is among you and have wept before Him, saying, “Why did we ever leave Egypt?”’” 21But Moses said, “The people, among whom I am included, are six hundred thousand on foot! Yet You have said, ‘I will give them meat, so that they may eat for a whole month.’ 22Are flocks and herds to be slaughtered for them, so that it will be sufficient for them? Or are all the fish of the sea to be 7caught for them, so that it will be sufficient for them?” 23Then the Lord said to Moses, “Is 8the Lord’s 9power too little? Now you shall see whether 10My word will 11come true for you or not.”
