Numbers 11 RV1885 — Numbers 11

1 And 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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:1

2 And the people cried unto Moses; and Moses prayed unto the Lord, and the fire abated. RV1885 — Numbers 11:2

3 And the name of that place was called Taberah: because the fire of the Lord burnt among them. RV1885 — Numbers 11:3

4 And 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? RV1885 — Numbers 11:4

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 garlick: RV1885 — Numbers 11:5

6 but now our soul is dried away; there is nothing at all: we have nought save this manna to look to. RV1885 — Numbers 11:6

7 And the manna was like coriander seed, and the appearance thereof as the appearance of bdellium. RV1885 — Numbers 11:7

8 The 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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:8

9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it. RV1885 — Numbers 11:9

10 And 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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:10

11 And Moses said unto the Lord, Wherefore hast thou evil entreated thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? RV1885 — Numbers 11:11

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? RV1885 — Numbers 11:12

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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:13

14 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me. RV1885 — Numbers 11:14

15 And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness. RV1885 — Numbers 11:15

16 And the Lord 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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:16

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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:17

18 And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have wept in the ears of the Lord, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt: therefore the Lord will give you flesh, and ye shall eat. RV1885 — Numbers 11:18

19 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days; RV1885 — Numbers 11:19

20 but a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have rejected the Lord which is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt? RV1885 — Numbers 11:20

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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:21

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? RV1885 — Numbers 11:22

23 And the Lord said unto Moses, Is the Lord'S hand waxed short? now shalt thou see whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not. RV1885 — Numbers 11:23

24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the Lord: and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the Tent. RV1885 — Numbers 11:24

25 And the Lord 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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:25

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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:26

27 And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp. RV1885 — Numbers 11:27

28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the minister of Moses, one of his chosen men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. RV1885 — Numbers 11:28

29 And Moses said unto him, Art thou jealous for my sake? would God that all the Lord'S people were prophets, that the Lord would put his spirit upon them! RV1885 — Numbers 11:29

30 And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel. RV1885 — Numbers 11:30

31 And there went forth a wind from the Lord, 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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:31

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. RV1885 — Numbers 11:32

33 While the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the anger of the Lord was kindled against the people, and the Lord smote the people with a very great plague. RV1885 — Numbers 11:33

34 And the name of that place was called Kibroth-hattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted. RV1885 — Numbers 11:34

35 From Kibroth-hattaavah the people journeyed unto Hazeroth; and they abode at Hazeroth. RV1885 — Numbers 11:35
