Quail And A Plague
32 The people stayed up all that day, all that night, and all through the next day, gathering quails. The one who gathered least gathered enough to fill ten omers, as they spread out all around the camp. 33 But even as they were chewing the meat and before they had swallowed it, the LORD became very angry with the people and struck them with a disastrous plague. 34 That's why the place was named Kibroth-hattaavah, because they buried the people there who had an insatiable appetite for meat.
