Exodus 16:2-9

2And the whole congregationH5712 of the children of IsraelH3478 murmured against MosesH4872 and against AaronH175 in the wildernessH4057: 3and the children of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto them, Would that we had diedH4191 by the handH3027 of Jehovah in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, when we satH3427 by the flesh-pots, when we did eatH398 breadH3899 to the full; for ye have broughtH3318 us forthH3318 into this wildernessH4057, to killH4191 this whole assemblyH6951 with hungerH7458.

4Then saidH559 Jehovah unto MosesH4872, Behold, I will rainH4305 breadH3899 from heavenH8064 for you; and the peopleH5971 shall goH3318 out and gatherH3950 a day’sH3117 portion every dayH3117, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my lawH8451, or not. 5And it shall comeH935 to pass on the sixthH8345 dayH3117, that they shall prepareH3559 that which they bringH935 in, and it shall beH1961 twice as much as they gatherH3950 daily. 6And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 saidH559 unto all the children of IsraelH3478, At even, then ye shall knowH3045 that Jehovah hath broughtH3318 you out from the landH776 of EgyptH4714; 7and in the morningH1242, then ye shall seeH7200 the gloryH3519 of Jehovah; for that he heareth your murmurings against Jehovah: and what are we, that ye murmur against us? 8And MosesH4872 saidH559, This shall be, when Jehovah shall giveH5414 you in the eveningH6153 fleshH1320 to eatH398, and in the morningH1242 breadH3899 to the full; for that Jehovah heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against him: and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against Jehovah. 9And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto AaronH175, SayH559 unto all the congregationH5712 of the children of IsraelH3478, Come near before Jehovah; for he hath heardH8085 your murmurings.
