Numbers 11:1-9
The Complaints of the People

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.

1:

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

2:

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

3:

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?

4:

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:

5:

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

6:

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

7:

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.

8:

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

9:
