Exodus 16:23-29

23he said to them, "This is what the Lord has commanded: 'Tomorrow is a day of solemn rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord; bake what you will bake and boil what you will boil, and all that is left over lay aside to be kept till the morning.'"

24So they laid it aside till the morning, as Moses commanded them, and it did not stink, and there were no worms in it.

25Moses said, "Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath to the Lord; today you will not find it in the field.

26Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, which is a Sabbath, there will be none."

27On the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they found none.

28And the Lord said to Moses, "How long will you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws?

29See! The Lord has given you the Sabbath; therefore on the sixth day he gives you bread for two days. Remain each of you in his place; let no one go out of his place on the seventh day."
