Numbers 11:11-13
Lexham English Bible
11 And Moses said to Yahweh, “Why have you brought trouble to your servant? Why have I not found favor in your eyes, that the burdens of all these people have been placed on me? 12 Did I conceive all these people? If I have fathered them,[a] that you could say to me, ‘Carry them[b] in your lap, just as a foster-father carries the suckling on the land that you swore an oath to their ancestors?’[c] 13 From where do I have meat to give all these people? They weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat and let us eat!’

New International Version
11 He asked the Lord, “Why have you brought this trouble(A) on your servant? What have I done to displease you that you put the burden of all these people on me?(B) 12 Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth? Why do you tell me to carry them in my arms, as a nurse carries an infant,(C) to the land you promised on oath(D) to their ancestors?(E) 13 Where can I get meat for all these people?(F) They keep wailing to me, ‘Give us meat to eat!’
