Exodus 16:23-29

23He told them, “This is what the Lord has said: ‘Tomorrow is a day of complete rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord. Bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil, and set aside everything left over to be kept until morning.’”

24So they set it aside until morning as Moses commanded, and it didn’t stink or have maggots in it.

25“Eat it today,” Moses said, “because today is a Sabbath to the Lord. Today you won’t find any in the field.

26For six days you will gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will be none.”

27Yet on the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they did not find any.

28Then the Lord said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to keep my commands and instructions?

29Understand that the Lord has given you the Sabbath; therefore on the sixth day he will give you two days’ worth of bread. Each of you stay where you are; no one is to leave his place on the seventh day.”
