Complaints about Food
4 Contemptible people[a] among them(A) had a strong craving(B) for other food. The Israelites cried again and said, “Who will feed us meat? 5 We remember the free fish we ate in Egypt,(C) along with the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic. 6 But now our appetite is gone;[b] there’s nothing to look at but this manna!”

Quail From the Lord
4 The rabble with them began to crave other food,(A) and again the Israelites started wailing(B) and said, “If only we had meat to eat! 5 We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost—also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic.(C) 6 But now we have lost our appetite; we never see anything but this manna!(D)”
