Numbers 11:4-9
New American Standard Bible
4 Now the (A)rabble who were among them [a]had greedy cravings; and the sons of Israel also wept again and said, “(B)Who will give us [b]meat to eat? 5 (C)We remember the fish which we used to eat for free in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic; 6 but now (D)our [c]appetite is gone. There is nothing at all [d]to look at except this manna!”
7 (E)Now the manna was like coriander seed, and its appearance like that of [e](F)bdellium. 8 The people would roam about and gather it and grind it [f]between two millstones, or pound it in the mortar, and boil it in the pot and make loaves with it; and its taste was like the taste of [g]cake baked with oil. 9 (G)When the dew came down on the camp at night, the manna would come down [h]with it.
