Numbers 11:1-10

1And the people were as murmurers, speaking evil in the ears of the LORD: and when the LORD heard it, his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and devoured in the uttermost part of the camp.

2And the people cried unto Moses; and Moses prayed unto the LORD, and the fire abated.

3And the name of that place was called Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt among them.

4And the mixed 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?

5We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt for nought; 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: we have nought save this manna to look to.

7And the manna was like coriander seed, and the appearance thereof as the appearance of bdellium.

8The people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and seethed it in pots, 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.

10And Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; and Moses was displeased.
