Numbers 11:32-34
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
32 (A)So all that day, all night, and all the next day the people set about to gather in the quail. Even the one who got the least gathered ten homers[a] of them. Then they spread them out all around the camp. 33 But while the meat was still between their teeth, before it could be chewed, the Lord’s wrath flared up against the people, and the Lord struck them with a very great plague. 34 So that place was named Kibroth-hattaavah,[b] because it was there that the greedy people were buried.
