Numbers 11:18-35

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. 25And YhwhH3068 came downH3381 in a cloudH6051, and spakeH1696 unto him, and tookH680 of the spiritH7307 that was upon him, and gaveH5414 it unto the seventyH7657 eldersH376H2205: and it came to pass, that, when the spiritH7307 restedH5117 upon them, they prophesiedH5012, and did not ceaseH3254. 26But there remainedH7604 twoH8147 of the menH582 in the campH4264, the nameH8034 of the oneH259 was EldadH419, and the nameH8034 of the otherH8145 MedadH4312: and the spiritH7307 restedH5117 upon them; and they were of them that were writtenH3789, but went not outH3318 unto the tabernacleH168: and they prophesiedH5012 in the campH4264. 27And there ranH7323 a young manH5288, and toldH5046 MosesH4872, and saidH559, EldadH419 and MedadH4312 do prophesyH5012 in the campH4264. 28And JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, the servantH8334 of MosesH4872, one of his young menH979, answeredH6030 and saidH559, My lordH113 MosesH4872, forbidH3607 them. 29And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto him, EnviestH7065 thou for my sake? would God that allH5414 Yhwh'sH3068 peopleH5971 were prophetsH5030, and that YhwhH3068 would putH5414 his spiritH7307 upon them! 30And MosesH4872 gatH622 him into the campH4264, he and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478.

31And there went forthH5265 a windH7307 from YhwhH3068, and broughtH1468 quailsH7958 from the seaH3220, and let them fallH5203 by the campH4264, as it were a day’sH3117 journeyH1870 on this sideH3541, and as it were a day’sH3117 journeyH1870 on the other sideH3541, round aboutH5439 the campH4264, and as it were two cubitsH520 high upon the faceH6440 of the earthH776.2 32And the peopleH5971 stood upH6965 all that dayH3117, and all that nightH3915, and all the nextH4283 dayH3117, and they gatheredH622 the quailsH7958: he that gathered leastH4591 gatheredH622 tenH6235 homersH2563: and they spreadH7849 them all abroadH7849 for themselves round aboutH5439 the campH4264. 33And while the fleshH1320 was yetH2962 between their teethH8127, ere it was chewedH3772, the wrathH639 of YhwhH3068 was kindledH2734 against the peopleH5971, And YhwhH3068 smoteH5221 the peopleH5971 with a veryH3966 greatH7227 plagueH4347. 34And he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 Kibroth–hattaavahH6914: because there they buriedH6912 the peopleH5971 that lustedH183.3 35And the peopleH5971 journeyedH5265 from Kibroth–hattaavahH6914 unto HazerothH2698; and abode at HazerothH2698.4
