Numbers 11:9

Read in context

Numbers 11:7–11 · Berean Standard Bible

7 Now the manna resembled coriander seed, and its appearance was like that of gum resin.

8 The people walked around and gathered it, ground it on a handmill or crushed it in a mortar, then boiled it in a cooking pot or shaped it into cakes. It tasted like pastry baked with fine oil.

9 When the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna would fall with it.

10 Then Moses heard the people of family after family weeping at the entrances to their tents, and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly, and Moses was also displeased.

11 So Moses asked the LORD, “Why have You brought this trouble on Your servant? Why have I not found favor in Your sight, that You have laid upon me the burden of all these people?
