3And he called the name of that place Burning (or And they called that place Taberah), for the fire of the Lord was kindled against them (there).

5We think upon the fish that we ate in Egypt freely (or We remember all the fish that we ate in Egypt); gourds, and melons, and leeks, and onions, and garlic come into our mind(s);
6our soul is dry; our eyes behold none other thing than manna. (but now our bodies be all dried up, and there is nothing to see but this manna!)
7Soothly manna was as the seed of coriander, of the colour of bdellium, which is white, and (as) bright as crystal.
8And the people went about, and gathered it, and brake it with a quernstone, either pounded it in a mortar, and seethed it in a pot (or and boiled it in a pot); and made thereof little cakes of the (same) savour as of bread made with oil.

(And he said to the Lord, Why hast thou so tormented thy servant? why do I not find grace before thee? and why hast thou put the burden of all of these people onto me?)
12whether I have conceived all this multitude, either have begotten it, that thou say to me, Bear thou them in thy bosom, as a nurse is wont to bear a little young child, and bear thou this people into the land for the which thou swore to their fathers? (have I conceived all this multitude, or have I begotten them, so that now thou can say to me, Carry thou them in thy bosom, like a nurse is wont to carry about a young child, and carry thou these people into the land for which thou swore to their fathers?)
13whereof be meats to me, that I feed so great a multitude? They weep before me, and say, Give us flesh, that we eat; (where shall I find enough meat, so that I can feed so great a multitude? They weep before me, and say to me, Give us flesh, so that we can eat it;)
