6 “I have cut off nations,
Their fortresses are devastated;
I have made their streets desolate,
With none passing by.

You will receive instruction’—
So that her dwelling would not be cut off,
Despite everything for which I punished her.

The Lord Sends Quail
31 Now a (A)wind went out from the Lord, and it brought quail from the sea and left them fluttering near the camp, about a day’s journey on this side and about a day’s journey on the other side, all around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the ground. 32 And the people stayed up all that day, all night, and all the next day, and gathered the quail (he who gathered least gathered ten (B)homers); and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp. 33 But while the (C)meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the wrath of the Lord was aroused against the people, and the Lord struck the people with a very great plague. 34 So he called the name of that place [a]Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who had yielded to craving.

Feathered fowl like the sand of the seas;
28 And He let them fall in the midst of their camp,
All around their dwellings.
29 (A)So they ate and were well filled,
For He gave them their own desire.
30 They were not [a]deprived of their craving;
But (B)while their food was still in their mouths,
31 The wrath of God came against them,
And slew the stoutest of them,
And struck down the choice men of Israel.
