27 A boy ran to Moses and told him about Eldad and Medad.
28 Joshua was there helping Moses, as he had done since he was young. And he said to Moses, “Sir, you must stop them!”
29 But Moses replied, “Are you concerned what this might do to me? I wish the Lord would give his Spirit to all his people so everyone could be a prophet.”
30 Then Moses and the seventy leaders went back to camp.
31 Some time later the Lord sent a strong wind that blew quails in from the sea until Israel's camp was completely surrounded with birds, piled up about a metre high for miles in every direction.
32 The people picked up quails for two days—each person collected at least a thousand kilogrammes. Then they spread them out to dry.
33 But before the meat could be eaten, the Lord became angry and sent a disease through the camp.
