Numbers 11:1-3

New International Reader's Version

The Lord Sends Fire Among the People

11 The people weren’t happy about the hard times they were having. The Lord heard what they were saying. It made him very angry. Then the Lord sent fire on them. It blazed out among the people. It burned up some of the outer edges of the camp. ² The people cried out to Moses. Then he prayed to the Lord. And the fire died down. ³ So that place was named Taberah. That’s because fire from the Lord had blazed out among them there.
