1 Vvhen the people became murmurers, it displeased the Lorde: and the Lorde heard it, therefore his wrath was kindled, and the fire of the Lorde burnt among them, and consumed the vtmost parte of the hoste.

2 Then the people cryed vnto Moses: and when Moses praied vnto the Lorde, the fire was quenched.

3 And he called the name of that place Taberah, because the fire of the Lorde burnt among them.

4 And a nomber of people that was amog them, fell a lusting, and turned away, and the children of Israel also wept, and saide, Who shall giue vs flesh to eate?

5 We remember the fish which we did eat in Egypt for nought, the cucumbers, & the pepons, and the leekes, and the onions, and the garleke.

6 But now our soule is dryed away, we can see nothing but this Man.

7 (The Man also was as coriander seede, and his colour like the colour of bdelium.

8 The people went about and gathered it, and ground it in milles, or beat it in morters, and baked it in a cauldron, and made cakes of it, and the taste of it was like vnto the taste of fresh oyle.

9 And when the dewe fell downe vpon the hoste in the night, the Man fell with it)
