Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh that we may eat!

I am not able to bear all this people alone, for it is too heavy for me.

and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land, who have heard that thou, Jehovah, art in the midst of this people, that thou, Jehovah, lettest thyself be seen eye to eye, and that thy cloud standeth over them, and that thou goest before them, in a pillar of cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night;
