Exodus 16:16-18

16This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Each one is to gather as much as he needs. You may take an omer1 for each person in your tent.’”

17So the Israelites did this. Some gathered more, and some less. 18When they measured it by the omer, he who gathered much had no excess, and he who gathered little had no shortfall.2 Each one gathered as much as he needed to eat.
