Numbers 11:1-6

The People Complain

11 Now the people became like ^(A)those who complain of calamity ^(B)in the ears of Yahweh. And Yahweh heard it and His anger was kindled, and the fire of Yahweh burned among them and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp. ^2 (C)The people therefore cried out to Moses, and Moses prayed to Yahweh, and the fire ^[a]died out. ³ So the name of that place was called ^[b](D)Taberah because the fire of Yahweh burned among them.

⁴ And the ^(E)rabble who were among them ^[c]had greedy desires; and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, “^(F)Who will give us ^[d]meat to eat? ^5 (G)We remember the fish which we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic, ⁶ but now ^(H)our ^[e]appetite is dried up. There is nothing at all ^[f]to look at except this manna.”
