2. When the people cried out to Moses, he prayed to the Lord and the fire died down.
3. So that place was called Taberah, because fire from the Lord had burned among them.
4. The rabble with them began to crave other food, and again the Israelites started wailing and said, “If only we had meat to eat!
5. We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost—also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic.
6. But now we have lost our appetite; we never see anything but this manna!”
7. The manna was like coriander seed and looked like resin.
8. The people went around gathering it, and then ground it in a hand mill or crushed it in a mortar. They cooked it in a pot or made it into loaves. And it tasted like something made with olive oil.
9. When the dew settled on the camp at night, the manna also came down.
10. Moses heard the people of every family wailing at the entrance to their tents. The Lord became exceedingly angry, and Moses was troubled.
