Numbers 11:17-23 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

17. Then I will come down and speak with you there, and, I will take some of the Ruach that is on you and will place it on them. They will carry with you the burden of the people, so you will not be carrying it alone.”

18. “Now to the people say: Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, because you will eat meat, for you wailed in Adonai’s ears saying, ‘If only we could eat meat! It was better for us in Egypt!’ Now Adonai will give you meat and you will eat!

19. You will eat—not for one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days, or twenty days,

20. but for an entire month—until it is coming out of your nostrils and it becomes loathsome to you! For you rejected Adonai who is among you, and you wailed to His face saying, ‘Why did we ever leave Egypt?”

21. Moses then said, “600,000 foot soldiers—the people I am in the middle of---yet You say, ‘I am going to give them meat to eat for an entire month?’

22. If flocks and herds were slaughtered, would they have enough? Or if all the fish in the sea were caught, would they have enough?”

23. Adonai said to Moses, “Is Adonai’s arm too short? Now you will see whether My word will come true for you or not.”
