Numbers 11:26-30
English Standard Version
26 Now two men remained in the camp, one named Eldad, and the other named Medad, and the Spirit rested on them. They were among those registered, but they (A)had not gone out to the tent, and so they prophesied in the camp. 27 And a young man ran and told Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.” 28 And (B)Joshua the son of Nun, the assistant of Moses from his youth, said, “My lord Moses, (C)stop them.” 29 But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? (D)Would that all the Lord's people were prophets, that the Lord would put his Spirit on them!” 30 And Moses and the elders of Israel returned to the camp.
