Numbers 11:26-30
Holman Christian Standard Bible
26 Two men had remained in the camp, one named Eldad and the other Medad; the Spirit rested on them—they were among those listed, but had not gone out to the tent—and they prophesied in the camp. 27 A young man ran and reported to Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”
28 Joshua son of Nun, assistant to Moses since his youth,[a] responded, “Moses, my lord, stop them!”
29 But Moses asked him, “Are you jealous on my account?(A) If only all the Lord’s people were prophets and the Lord would place His Spirit on them!” 30 Then Moses returned to the camp along with the elders of Israel.

New International Version
26 However, two men, whose names were Eldad and Medad, had remained in the camp. They were listed among the elders, but did not go out to the tent. Yet the Spirit also rested on them,(A) and they prophesied in the camp. 27 A young man ran and told Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”
28 Joshua son of Nun,(B) who had been Moses’ aide(C) since youth, spoke up and said, “Moses, my lord, stop them!”(D)
29 But Moses replied, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the Lord’s people were prophets(E) and that the Lord would put his Spirit(F) on them!”(G) 30 Then Moses and the elders of Israel returned to the camp.
