Numbers 11:20-22
Contemporary English Version
Numbers 11:20-22
Contemporary English Version
19-20 In fact, they will have meat day after day for a whole month—not just a few days, or even 10 or 20. They turned against me and wanted to go back to Egypt. Now they will eat meat until they get sick of it.
21 Moses replied, “At least 600,000 grown men are here with me. How can you say there will be enough meat to feed them and their families for a whole month? 22 Even if we butchered all our sheep and cattle, or caught every fish in the sea, we wouldn't have enough to feed them.”

Numbers 11:20-22
New International Version
20 but for a whole month—until it comes out of your nostrils and you loathe it(A)—because you have rejected the Lord,(B) who is among you, and have wailed before him, saying, “Why did we ever leave Egypt?”’”(C)
21 But Moses said, “Here I am among six hundred thousand men(D) on foot, and you say, ‘I will give them meat to eat for a whole month!’ 22 Would they have enough if flocks and herds were slaughtered for them? Would they have enough if all the fish in the sea were caught for them?”(E)
