Numbers 11:11-15

¹¹And Moses saith unto Jehovah, 'Why hast Thou done evil to Thy servant? and why have I not found grace in Thine eyes — to put the burden of all this people upon me?

¹²I — have I conceived all this people? I — have I begotten it, that Thou sayest unto me, Carry it in thy bosom as the nursing father beareth the suckling, unto the ground which Thou hast sworn to its fathers?

¹³Whence have I flesh to give to all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give to us flesh, and we eat.

¹⁴I am not able — I alone — to bear all this people, for it is too heavy for me;

¹⁵and if thus Thou art doing to me — slay me, I pray Thee; slay, if I have found grace in thine eyes, and let me not look on mine affliction.'
