Numbers 11:16 in Context — Numbers 11
14 Je ne puis pas, à moi seul, porter tout ce peuple, car il est trop pesant pour moi.
15 Plutôt que de me traiter ainsi, tue-moi, je te prie, si j’ai trouvé grâce à tes yeux, et que je ne voie pas mon malheur.
16 L’Éternel dit à Moïse: Assemble auprès de moi soixante-dix hommes des anciens d’Israël, de ceux que tu connais comme anciens du peuple et ayant autorité sur lui; amène-les à la tente d’assignation, et qu’ils s’y présentent avec toi.
17 Je descendrai, et là je te parlerai; je prendrai de l’esprit qui est sur toi, et je le mettrai sur eux, afin qu’ils portent avec toi la charge du peuple, et que tu ne la portes pas à toi seul.
18 Tu diras au peuple: Sanctifiez-vous pour demain, et vous mangerez de la viande, puisque vous avez pleuré aux oreilles de l’Éternel, en disant: Qui nous fera manger de la viande? Car nous étions bien en Égypte. L’Éternel vous donnera de la viande, et vous en mangerez.
