Numbers 11:1-10
1And when the people complained, it displeased Yhwh: And Yhwh heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of Yhwh burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp.12 2And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto Yhwh, the fire was quenched.3 3And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of Yhwh burnt among them.4
4And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?56 5We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick: 6But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes. 7And the manna was as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as the colour of bdellium.7 8And the people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in a mortar, and baked it in pans, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil. 9And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.
10Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of Yhwh was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased.
