Exodus 16:16-18

16ThisH2088H1697 is whatH834 the LORDH3068 has commandedH6680: ‘Each oneH376 is to gatherH3950 as muchH4480 asH6310 he needsH400. You may takeH3947 an omerH60161 for eachH1538H4557 personH5315H376 in your tentH168.’”

17So the IsraelitesH1121H3478 didH6213 thisH3651. Some gatheredH3950 moreH7235, and some lessH4591. 18When they measured itH4058 by the omerH6016, he who gathered muchH7235 had noH3808 excessH5736, and he who gathered littleH4591 had noH3808 shortfallH2637.2 Each oneH376 gatheredH3950 asH6310 much as he needed to eatH400.
