10 Moses heard the people, family after family, weeping at the entrance of their tents. The Lord was very angry;a Moses was also provoked.A 11 So Moses asked the Lord, “Why have you brought such trouble on your servant? Why are you angry with me,B and why do you burden me with all these people?b 12 Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth so you should tell me, ‘Carry them at your breast, as a nursing mother carries a baby,’c to the land that you swore to give their ancestors?d 13 Where can I get meat to give all these people? For they are weeping to me, ‘Give us meat to eat!’ 14 I can’t carry all these people by myself. They are too much for me. 15 If you are going to treat me like this, please kill me right nowe if I have found favor with you, andf don’t let me see my miseryC anymore.”
