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.”
24. So Moses went out and told the people Adonai’s words. He gathered 70 of the elders of the people and had them stand around the Tent.
25. Adonai descended in the cloud and spoke with him. He took some of the Ruach that was on him and placed it on each of the 70 elders. It so happened that when the Ruach first rested on them, they prophesied—but never again.
26. Two men, however, had remained in the camp. The name of one was Eldad and the name of the other was Medad. The Ruach rested on them. They were among those listed, but they had not gone out to the Tent. So they prophesied in the camp.
