Numbers 11:31-33

Christian Standard Bible

Quail in the Camp

³¹ A wind sent by the Lord^(A) came up and blew quail in from the sea; it dropped them all around the camp. They were flying three feet^[a] off^[b] the ground for about a day’s journey in every direction.^{(B) 32} The people were up all that day and night and all the next day gathering the quail—the one who took the least gathered sixty bushels^[c]—and they spread them out all around the camp.^[d](C)

³³ While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the Lord’s anger burned^(D) against the people, and the Lord struck them with a very severe plague.^(E)
