Numbers 11:10-15
Christian Standard Bible
10 Moses heard the people, family after family, weeping at the entrance of their tents. The Lord was very angry;(A) Moses was also provoked.[a] 11 So Moses asked the Lord, “Why have you brought such trouble on your servant? Why are you angry with me,[b] and why do you burden me with all these people?(B) 12 Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth so you should tell me, ‘Carry them at your breast, as a nursing mother carries a baby,’(C) to the land that you swore to give their ancestors?(D) 13 Where can I get meat to give all these people? For they are weeping to me, ‘Give us meat to eat!’ 14 I can’t carry all these people by myself. They are too much for me. 15 If you are going to treat me like this, please kill me right now(E) if I have found favor with you, and(F) don’t let me see my misery[c] anymore.”
