04:011:012 Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that
           thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a
           nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which
           thou swarest unto their fathers?

04:011:013 Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for
           they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.

04:011:014 I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too
           heavy for me.

04:011:015 And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of
           hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see
           my wretchedness.

04:011:016 And the lord said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of
           the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of
           the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the
           tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with
           thee.

04:011:017 And I will come down and talk with thee there:  and I will take
           of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them;
           and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that
           thou bear it not thyself alone.

04:011:018 And say thou unto the people, Sanctify yourselves against to
           morrow, and ye shall eat flesh:  for ye have wept in the ears
           of the lord, saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it
           was well with us in Egypt:  therefore the lord will give you
           flesh, and ye shall eat.

04:011:019 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither
           ten days, nor twenty days;

04:011:020 But even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils,
           and it be loathsome unto you:  because that ye have despised
           the lord which is among you, and have wept before him, saying,
           Why came we forth out of Egypt?

04:011:021 And Moses said, The people, among whom I am, are six hundred
           thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will give them flesh,
           that they may eat a whole month.

04:011:022 Shall the flocks and the herds be slain for them, to suffice
           them? or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together
           for them, to suffice them?

04:011:023 And the lord said unto Moses, Is the LORD’s hand waxed short?
           thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto
           thee or not.

04:011:024 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the lord,
           and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and
           set them round about the tabernacle.

04:011:025 And the lord came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and
           took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the
           seventy elders:  and it came to pass, that, when the spirit
           rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.
