Numbers 11:26-30
New American Standard Bible
26 But two men had remained in the camp; the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the [a]other, Medad. And (A)the Spirit rested upon them (and they were among those who had been registered, but had not gone out to the tent), and they prophesied in the camp. 27 So a young man ran and informed Moses, and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.” 28 Then (B)Joshua the son of Nun, the personal servant of Moses from his youth, responded and said, “(C)My lord Moses, restrain them!” 29 But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? (D)If only all the Lord’s people were prophets, that the Lord would put His Spirit upon them!” 30 Then Moses [b]returned to the camp, both he and the elders of Israel.

26 But two men were left in the camp; the name of one was Eldad, and the name of the second was Medad, and the spirit rested on them; they were among those who were written down, but they did not go out to the tent, so they prophesied in the camp. 27 So a boy[a] ran and told Moses and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.” 28 And Joshua son of Nun, the assistant of Moses from time of his youth, answered, “Moses, my lord, stop them.” 29 But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? Would that he[b] give all Yahweh’s people prophets, that Yahweh put his spirit on them!” 30 Then Moses and the elders of Israel were gathered to the camp.
