Numbers 11:1
|
|
And the people were as murmurers, speaking evil
in the ears of Jehovah: and when Jehovah heard it, his anger was kindled; and
the fire of Jehovah burnt among them, and devoured in the uttermost part of the
camp. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:2 |
|
And the people cried unto Moses; and Moses prayed
unto Jehovah, and the fire abated. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 11:3 |
|
And the name of that place was called Taberah,
because the fire of Jehovah burnt among them. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 11:4 |
|
And the mixed multitude that was among them
lusted exceedingly: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who
shall give us flesh to eat? |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 11:5 |
|
We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt
for nought; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and
the garlic: |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 11:6 |
|
but now our soul is dried away; there is nothing
at all save this manna to look upon. |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 11:7 |
|
And the manna was like coriander seed, and the
appearance thereof as the appearance of bdellium. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:8 |
|
The people went about, and gathered it, and
ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and boiled it in pots, and made cakes
of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:9 |
|
And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night,
the manna fell upon it. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:10 |
|
And Moses heard the people weeping throughout
their families, every man at the door of his tent: and the anger of Jehovah was
kindled greatly; and Moses was displeased. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:11 |
|
And Moses said unto Jehovah, Wherefore hast
thou dealt ill with thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favor in thy sight,
that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:12 |
|
Have I conceived all this people? have I brought
them forth, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing-father
carrieth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers?
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:13 |
|
Whence should I have flesh to give unto all
this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:14 |
|
I am not able to bear all this people alone,
because it is too heavy for me. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:15 |
|
And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray
thee, out of hand, if I have found favor in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:16 |
|
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Gather unto me
seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the
people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tent of meeting, that
they may stand there with thee. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:17 |
|
And I will come down and talk with thee there:
and I will take of the Spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and
they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself
alone. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:18 |
|
And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves
against to-morrow, and ye shall eat flesh; for ye have wept in the ears of Jehovah,
saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: therefore
Jehovah will give you flesh, and ye shall eat. |
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:19 |
|
Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor
five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days, |
| |
|
|
| Numbers 11:20 |
|
but a whole month, until it come out at your
nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you; because that ye have rejected Jehovah
who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?
|
| |
|
|
| Numbers 11:21 |
|
And Moses said, The people, among whom I am,
are six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh,
that they may eat a whole month. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:22 |
|
Shall flocks and herds be slain for them, to
suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them,
to suffice them? |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:23 |
|
And Jehovah said unto Moses, Is Jehovah's hand
waxed short? now shalt thou see whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or
not. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:24 |
|
And Moses went out, and told the people the
words of Jehovah: and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and
set them round about the Tent. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:25 |
|
And Jehovah came down in the cloud, and spake
unto him, and took of the Spirit that was upon him, and put it upon the seventy
elders: and it came to pass, that, when the Spirit rested upon them, they prophesied,
but they did so no more. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:26 |
|
But there remained two men in the camp, the
name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the Spirit rested
upon them; and they were of them that were written, but had not gone out unto
the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:27 |
|
And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and
said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:28 |
|
And Joshua the son of Nun, the minister of Moses,
one of his chosen men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:29 |
|
And Moses said unto him, Art thou jealous for
my sake? would that all Jehovah's people were prophets, that Jehovah would put
his Spirit upon them! |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:30 |
|
And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the
elders of Israel. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:31 |
|
And there went forth a wind from Jehovah, and
brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day's journey
on this side, and a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and
about two cubits above the face of the earth. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:32 |
|
And the people rose up all that day, and all
the night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails: he that gathered least
gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about
the camp. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:33 |
|
While the flesh was yet between their teeth,
ere it was chewed, the anger of Jehovah was kindled against the people, and Jehovah
smote the people with a very great plague. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:34 |
|
And the name of that place was called Kibrothhattaavah,
because there they buried the people that lusted. |
|
|
|
|
| Numbers 11:35 |
|
From Kibrothhattaavah the people journeyed unto
Hazeroth; and they abode at Hazeroth. |
