NVI 21 Moisés replicó:—Me encuentro en medio de un ejército de seiscientos mil hombres, ¿y tú hablas de darles carne todo un mes? NIV 21 But Moses said, “Here I am among six hundred thousand men on foot, and you say, ‘I will give them meat to eat for a whole month!’ NVI 22 Aunque se les degollaran rebaños y manadas completas, ¿les alcanzaría? Y aunque se les pescaran todos los peces del mar, ¿eso les bastaría? NIV 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?” NVI 23 El SEÑOR le respondió a Moisés:—¿Acaso el poder del SEÑOR es limitado? ¡Pues ahora verás si te cumplo o no mi palabra! NIV 23 The LORD answered Moses, “Is the LORD’s arm too short? Now you will see whether or not what I say will come true for you.” NVI 24 Moisés fue y le comunicó al pueblo lo que el SEÑOR le había dicho. Después juntó a setenta ancianos del pueblo, y se quedó esperando con ellos alrededor de la Tienda de reunión. NIV 24 So Moses went out and told the people what the LORD had said. He brought together seventy of their elders and had them stand around the tent. NVI 25 El SEÑOR descendió en la nube y habló con Moisés, y compartió con los setenta ancianos el Espíritu que estaba sobre él. Cuando el Espíritu descansó sobre ellos, se pusieron a profetizar. Pero esto no volvió a repetirse. NIV 25 Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke with him, and he took some of the power of the Spirit that was on him and put it on the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied—but did not do so again. NVI 26 Dos de los ancianos se habían quedado en el campamento. Uno se llamaba Eldad y el otro Medad. Aunque habían sido elegidos, no acudieron a la Tienda de reunión. Sin embargo, el Espíritu descansó sobre ellos y se pusieron a profetizar dentro del campamento. NIV 26 However, two men, whose names were Eldad and Medad, had remained in the camp. They were listed among the elders, but did not go out to the tent. Yet the Spirit also rested on them, and they prophesied in the camp. NVI 27 Entonces un muchacho corrió a contárselo a Moisés:—¡Eldad y Medad están profetizando dentro del campamento! NIV 27 A young man ran and told Moses, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.” NVI 28 Josué hijo de Nun, uno de los siervos escogidos de Moisés, exclamó:—¡Moisés, señor mío, deténlos! NIV 28 Joshua son of Nun, who had been Moses’ aide since youth, spoke up and said, “Moses, my lord, stop them!” NVI 29 Pero Moisés le respondió:—¿Estás celoso por mí? ¡Cómo quisiera que todo el pueblo del SEÑOR profetizara, y que el SEÑOR pusiera su Espíritu en todos ellos! NIV 29 But Moses replied, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD’s people were prophets and that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!” NVI 30 Entonces Moisés y los ancianos regresaron al campamento. NIV 30 Then Moses and the elders of Israel returned to the camp.
