Numbers 11 - UPDV Updated Bible Version

^11:1 And the people were as murmurers, [speaking] evil in the ears of Yahweh: and when Yahweh heard it, his anger was kindled; and the fire of Yahweh burned among them, and devoured in the uttermost part of the camp.
^11:2 And the people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to Yahweh, and the fire abated.
^11:3 And the name of that place was called Taberah, because the fire of Yahweh burned among them.
^11:4 And the mixed multitude that was among them lusted exceedingly: and the sons of Israel also wept again, and said, Who will give us flesh to eat?
^11:5 We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic:
^11:6 but now our soul is dried away; there is nothing at all but this manna to look at.
^11:7 And the manna was like coriander seed, and its appearance as the appearance of bdellium.
^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.
^11:9 And when the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.
^11:10 And Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent: and the anger of Yahweh was kindled greatly; and Moses was displeased.
^11:11 And Moses said to Yahweh, Why have you dealt ill with your slave? And why haven't I found favor in your sight, that you lay the burden of all this people on me?
^11:12 Have I become pregnant with all this people? Have I given birth to them, that you should say to me, Carry them in your bosom, as a foster-father carries the nursing child, to the land which you swore to their fathers?
^11:13 From where should I have flesh to give to all this people? For they weep to me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.
^11:14 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
^11:15 And if you deal thus with me, kill me, I pray you, out of hand, if I have found favor in your sight; and don't let me see my wretchedness.
^11:16 And Yahweh said to Moses, Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them to the tent of meeting, that they may stand there with you.
^11:17 And I will come down and talk with you there: and I will take of the Spirit who is on you, and will put him on them; and they will bear the burden of the people with you, that you yourself don't bear it alone.
^11:18 And you say to the people, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow, and you⁺ will eat flesh; for you⁺ have wept in the ears of Yahweh, saying, Who will give us flesh to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt: therefore Yahweh will give you⁺ flesh, and you⁺ will eat.
^11:19 You⁺ will not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days,
^11:20 but a whole month, until it comes out at your⁺ nostrils, and it is loathsome to you⁺; because you⁺ have rejected Yahweh who is among you⁺, and have wept before him, saying, Why did we come forth out of Egypt?
^11:21 And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand footmen; and you have said, I will give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month.
^11:22 Will flocks and herds be slain for them, to suffice them? Or will all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them?
^11:23 And Yahweh said to Moses, Is Yahweh's hand waxed short? Now you will see whether my word will come to pass to you or not.
^11:24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of Yahweh: and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the Tent.
^11:25 And Yahweh came down in the cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was on him, and put it on the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did so no more.
^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 on them; and they were of those who were written, but had not gone out to the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
^11:27 And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.
^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.
^11:29 And Moses said to him, Are you jealous for my sake? Oh that all Yahweh's people were prophets, that Yahweh would put his Spirit on them!
^11:30 And Moses got himself into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
^11:31 And a wind went forth from Yahweh, 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.
^11:32 And the people rose up all that day, and all the night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails: he who gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp.
^11:33 While the flesh was yet between their teeth, before it was chewed, the anger of Yahweh was kindled against the people, and Yahweh struck the people with a very great plague.
^11:34 And the name of that place was called Kibrothhattaavah, because there they buried the people who lusted.
^11:35 From Kibrothhattaavah the people journeyed to Hazeroth; and they remained at Hazeroth.
