The Message
Numbers 11:8-10
The Message
7-9 Manna was a seedlike substance with a shiny appearance like resin. The people went around collecting it and ground it between stones or pounded it fine in a mortar. Then they boiled it in a pot and shaped it into cakes. It tasted like a delicacy cooked in olive oil. When the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna was right there with it.
10 Moses heard the whining, all those families whining in front of their tents. God’s anger blazed up. Moses saw that things were in a bad way.

Numbers 11:8-10
New International Version
8 The people went around gathering it,(A) and then ground it in a hand mill or crushed it in a mortar. They cooked it in a pot or made it into loaves. And it tasted like something made with olive oil. 9 When the dew(B) settled on the camp at night, the manna also came down.
10 Moses heard the people of every family wailing(C) at the entrance to their tents. The Lord became exceedingly angry, and Moses was troubled.
