Numbers 11:3-13

³And Mosheh called the name of that place Enkindlement; because the fire had been kindled against them from before the Lord.

⁴And the mixed multitude who were among them demanded with demand; and the children of Israel also turned, and wept, and said: Who will feed us with flesh?

⁵We remember the fish which we ate in Mizraim freely, the cucumbers and melons, the cresses and onions and garlick.

⁶But now our soul longeth, yet there is nothing before our eyes but manna.

⁷Now the manna was like the seed of coriander, and its appearance as the appearance of bedilcha.

⁸And the people went about and gathered; and he who would ground it in mills, or he who would beat it in the mortar, and they dressed it in the pan, and made cakes of it, and its taste was like the taste of a confection of oil.

⁹And when the dew came down upon the camp at night, the manna descended upon it.

¹⁰And Mosheh heard the people lamenting with their families, a man at the door of his tent. And the displeasure of the Lord grew very strong, as in the eyes of Mosheh it was evil.

¹¹And Mosheh said before the Lord, Wherefore hast Thou done painfully to Thy servant, and why have I not found mercy before Thee, that Thou hast put the burden of all this people upon me?

¹²Am I father to all this people, or are they my children, that Thou hast said to me, Carry them in thy strength, as the nurse carrieth the suckling, unto the land which Thou hast covenanted to their fathers?

¹³Whence shall I have flesh to give to all this people? For they lament to me, saying: Give us flesh to eat.
