25. Then the Lord descended in the cloud and spoke to him. He took some of the Spirit that was on Moses and placed the Spirit on the 70 elders. As the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they never did it again.
26. Two men had remained in the camp, one named Eldad and the other Medad; the Spirit rested on them — they were among those listed, but had not gone out to the tent — and they prophesied in the camp.
27. A young man ran and reported to Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”
28. Joshua son of Nun, assistant to Moses since his youth, responded, “Moses, my lord, stop them! ”
29. But Moses asked him, “Are you jealous on my account? If only all the Lord’s people were prophets and the Lord would place His Spirit on them!”
30. Then Moses returned to the camp along with the elders of Israel.
31. A wind sent by the Lord came up and blew quail in from the sea; it dropped them at the camp all around, three feet off the ground, about a day’s journey in every direction.
