1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

10 Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your God.

1 And when the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp.

<>when the people complained, it displeased the LORD, <>when the people complained … the LORD heard, <>displeased … and … heard, <>his anger was kindled, <>the fire of the LORD … consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp, <>the fire of the LORD … consumed them

2 And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched.

<>Moses … Moses, <>when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched

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

4 And the mixt 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?

<>the mixt multitude that was among them, <>lusting, <>children, <>Israel, <>Who shall give us flesh to eat?

5 We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick:

<>we did eat … freely

6 But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes.

<>there is nothing at all, beside this manna, <>this manna, <>manna

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

8 And the people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in a mortar, and baked it in pans, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil.

<>beat it in a mortar, <>beat it, <>beat it … the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oil

9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.

<>the dew fell

10 Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased.

<>the people weep, <>families, <>the door, <>tent

11 And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me?

<>afflicted, <>thy servant, <>found favour, <>burden

12 Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers?

<>begotten, <>Carry them in thy bosom, <>bosom, <>as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, <>child, <>the land which thou swarest unto their fathers

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.

<>Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people?

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

<>I am not able to bear all this people alone

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.

<>out of hand, <>if I have found favour in thy sight

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 tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with thee.

<>v. 16, <>whom thou knowest to be the elders, <>congregation

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.

<>I will come, <>they shall bear the burden … with thee

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 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.

<>vv. 18,33, <>Sanctify yourselves, <>Sanctify, <>against to morrow

19 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;

20 But even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have despised the LORD which is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?

<>ye have despised the LORD, <>despised

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.

<>I will give

22 Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to suffice them?

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

<>Is the LORD'S hand waxed short?, <>waxed, <>my word shall come to pass

24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.

<>told the people the words of the LORD

25 And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.

<>the LORD came down in a cloud, <>when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, <>prophesied, and did not cease, <>prophesied, <>and did not cease

26 But there remained two of the 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 went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the camp.

<>vv. 26-29, <>them that were written

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

<>vv. 26-29, <>young man

28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them.

<>vv. 26-29, <>son, <>the servant, <>answered

29 And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD'S people were prophets, and that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!

<>vv. 26-29, <>Enviest thou, <>would God that all the LORD'S people were prophets, <>would God

30 And Moses gat him into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.

31 And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it were a day's journey on this side, and as it were a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two cubits high upon the face of the earth.

<>there went forth a wind from the LORD

32 And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp.

<>he that gathered least gathered ten homers

33 And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague.

<>vv. 18,33, <>ere

34 And he called the name of that place Kibroth-hattaavah: because there they buried the people that lusted.

<>they buried the people that lusted, <>buried

35 And the people journeyed from Kibroth-hattaavah unto Hazeroth; and abode at Hazeroth.
