Numbers 11:1-10
1Now the peopleH5971 becameH1961 like 1those who complainH596 of adversityH7451 2in the earsH241 of the LordH3068; and the LordH3068 heardH8085 them and His angerH639 was kindledH2734, and the fireH784 of the LordH3068 burnedH1197 among them and consumedH398 some at the outskirtsH7097 of the campH4264. 23The peopleH5971 then criedH6817 outH6817 to MosesH4872; and MosesH4872 prayedH6419 to the LordH3068, and the fireH784 4diedH8257 outH8257. 3So that placeH4725 was namedH7121H8034 56TaberahH8404, becauseH3588 the fireH784 of the LordH3068 burnedH1197 among them.
4Now the 7rabbleH628 whoH834 were amongH7130 them 8hadH183 greedyH183 cravingsH8378; and the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 alsoH1571 weptH1058 againH7725 and saidH559, “9WhoH4310 will give us 10meatH1320 to eatH398? 511We rememberH2142 the fishH1710 whichH834 we used to eatH398 forH2600 freeH2600 in EgyptH4714, the cucumbersH7180, the melonsH20, the leeksH2682, the onionsH1211, and the garlicH7762; 6but nowH6258 12our 13appetiteH5315 is goneH3002. ThereH369 isH369 nothingH369 at allH3605 14to lookH5869 at exceptH1115 this mannaH4478!”
715Now the mannaH4478 was like corianderH1407 seedH2233, and its appearanceH5869 like that of 1617bdelliumH916. 8The peopleH5971 would roamH7751 aboutH7751 and gatherH3950 it and grindH2912 it 18between two millstonesH7347, orH176 poundH1743 it in the mortarH4085, and boilH1310 it in the potH6517 and makeH6213 loavesH5692 with it; and its tasteH2940 was like the tasteH2940 of 19cakeH3955 baked with oilH8081. 920When the dewH2919 cameH3381 downH3381 on the campH4264 at nightH3915, the mannaH4478 would comeH3381 downH3381 21with it.
10Now MosesH4872 heardH8085 the peopleH5971 weepingH1058 throughout their familiesH4940, eachH376 oneH376 at the entranceH6607 of his tentH168; and the angerH639 of the LordH3068 becameH2734 veryH3966 hotH2734, and 22MosesH4872 was displeasedH7489H5869.
