Numbers 11:12-14

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹² Did I conceive all this people? Did I give birth to them, that you should say to me, ‘Carry them in your bosom as a wet nurse carries a nursing child, to the land that you promised on oath to their ancestors’?^{(A) 13} Where am I to get meat to give to all this people? For they come weeping to me, saying, ‘Give us meat to eat!’^{(B) 14} I am not able to carry all this people alone, for they are too heavy for me.^(C)
