Numbers 11:24–30

²⁴So Moses went out, and he spoke the words of Yahweh to the people, and he gathered together seventy men from the elders of the people, and he made them stand^r all around the tent. ²⁵Then Yahweh went down in the cloud and spoke to him, and he took away the spirit that was on him, and he put it^s on the seventy elders. And as soon as the spirit was resting on them they prophesied, but they did not do it again.

²⁶But two men were left in the camp; the name of one was Eldad, and the name of the second was Medad, and the spirit rested on them; they were among those who were written down, but they did not go out to the tent, so they prophesied in the camp. ²⁷So a boy^t ran and told Moses and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.” ²⁸And Joshua son of Nun, the assistant of Moses from time of his youth, answered, “Moses, my lord, stop them.” ²⁹But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? Would that he^u give all Yahweh’s people prophets, that Yahweh put his spirit on them!” ³⁰Then Moses and the elders of Israel were gathered to the camp.
