Numbers 11:24–30

²⁴So Moses went out and ^atold the people the words of Yahweh. Also, he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people and had them stand around the tent.

^25aThen Yahweh came down in the cloud and spoke to him; and He took of the Spirit who was upon him and placed Him upon the seventy elders. And when the Spirit rested upon them, they prophesied. But they did not do it again.

²⁶But two men had remained in the camp; the name of one was Eldad and the name of the ¹other Medad. And ^athe Spirit rested upon them (now they were among those who had been registered, but had not gone out to the tent), and they prophesied in the camp.

²⁷So a young man ran and told Moses and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”

²⁸Then ^aJoshua the son of Nun, the attendant of Moses from his youth, said, “^bMoses, my lord, restrain them.”

²⁹But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? ^aWould that all the people of Yahweh were prophets, that Yahweh would put His Spirit upon them!”

³⁰Then Moses ¹returned to the camp, both he and the elders of Israel.
