16 And the LORD said to Moses, Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them to the tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with thee.

19 Ye shall not eat one day, nor two days, nor five days, neither ten days, nor twenty days;
