Numbers 11:21-23
Living Bible
21 But Moses said, “There are 600,000 men alone besides all the women and children,[a] and yet you promise them meat for a whole month! 22 If we butcher all our flocks and herds it won’t be enough! We would have to catch every fish in the ocean to fulfill your promise!”
23 Then the Lord said to Moses, “When did I become weak? Now you shall see whether my word comes true or not!”

New International Version
21 But Moses said, “Here I am among six hundred thousand men(A) on foot, and you say, ‘I will give them meat to eat for a whole month!’ 22 Would they have enough if flocks and herds were slaughtered for them? Would they have enough if all the fish in the sea were caught for them?”(B)
23 The Lord answered Moses, “Is the Lord’s arm too short?(C) Now you will see whether or not what I say will come true for you.(D)”
