17 and I descend and word with you there: and I set aside of the spirit on you and put it on them to bear the burden of the people with you, that you not bear it yourself alone:
18 and say to the people, hallow youselves by the morrow, and eat flesh: for you wept in the ears of Yah Veh, saying, Who feeds us flesh? For it was good with us in Misrayim! And Yah Veh gave you flesh and you ate
19 - you ate, neither one day nor two days nor five days nor ten days nor twenty days
20 - but a month of days, until it came out your nostrils and became strange to you - because you spurned Yah Veh who is among you and wept at his face, saying, Why came we from Misrayim?
21 And Mosheh says, The people - six hundred thousand on foot in my midst; and you say, Give them flesh to eat a month of days.
22 Slaughter you flocks and oxen for them and find for them? Or gather all the fish of the sea for them and find for them?
23 And Yah Veh says to Mosheh, Is the hand of Yah Veh curtailed? See now whether my word befalls you or not.
24 And Mosheh goes out and words the words of Yah Veh to the people; and gathers the seventy men of the elders of the people and stands them all around the tent.
25 And Yah Veh descends in a cloud and words to him and sets aside of the spirit on him and gives it to the seventy men - elders: and so be it, when the spirit rests on them, they prophesy, but never again.
