Numbers 11:16-24

16And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, GatherH622 unto me seventyH7657 menH376 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, whom thou knowestH3045 to be the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and officersH7860 over them; and bringH3947 them unto the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, that they may standH3320 there with thee. 17And I will come downH3381 and talkH1696 with thee there: and I will takeH680 of the spiritH7307 which is upon thee, and will putH7760 it upon them; and they shall bearH5375 the burdenH4853 of the peopleH5971 with thee, that thou bearH5375 it not thyself alone. 18And sayH559 thou unto the peopleH5971, SanctifyH6942 yourselves against to morrowH4279, and ye shall eatH398 fleshH1320: for ye have weptH1058 in the earsH241 of YhwhH3068, sayingH559, Who shall give us fleshH1320 to eatH398? for it was wellH2895 with us in EgyptH4714: Therefore YhwhH3068 will giveH5414 you fleshH1320, and ye shall eatH398. 19Ye shall not eatH398 oneH259 dayH3117, nor two daysH3117, nor fiveH2568 daysH3117, neither tenH6235 daysH3117, nor twentyH6242 daysH3117; 20But even a whole monthH3117H2320, until it come outH3318 at your nostrilsH639, and it be loathsomeH2214 unto you: becauseH3282 that ye have despisedH3988 YhwhH3068 which is amongH7130 you, and have weptH1058 beforeH6440 him, sayingH559, Why came we forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714?1 21And MosesH4872 saidH559, The peopleH5971, amongH7130 whom I am, are sixH8337 hundredH3967 thousandH505 footmenH7273; and thou hast saidH559, I will giveH5414 them fleshH1320, that they may eatH398 a wholeH3117 monthH2320. 22Shall the flocksH6629 and the herdsH1241 be slainH7819 for them, to sufficeH4672 them? or shall all the fishH1709 of the seaH3220 be gathered togetherH622 for them, to sufficeH4672 them? 23And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Is Yhwh'sH3068 handH3027 waxed shortH7114? thou shalt seeH7200 now whether my wordH1697 shall come to passH7136 unto thee or not.

24And MosesH4872 went outH3318, and toldH1696 the peopleH5971 the wordsH1697 of YhwhH3068, and gatheredH622 the seventyH7657 menH376 of the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and setH5975 them round aboutH5439 the tabernacleH168.
