Numbers 11:26-30

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

²⁶ Two men had remained in the camp, one named Eldad and the other Medad; the Spirit rested on them – they were among those listed, but had not gone out to the tent – and they prophesied in the camp. ²⁷ A young man ran and reported to Moses, ‘Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.’

²⁸ Joshua son of Nun, assistant to Moses since his youth,^[a] responded, ‘Moses, my lord, stop them! ’

²⁹ But Moses asked him, ‘Are you jealous on my account?^(A) If only all the Lord’s people were prophets and the Lord would place his Spirit on them! ’ ³⁰ Then Moses returned to the camp along with the elders of Israel.
