Exodus 16:4-12
4Then the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, 1I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day’s portion every day, so that I may 2test them, whether or not they will walk in My 3instruction. 54On the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, it will be twice as much as they gather daily.” 6So Moses and Aaron said to all the sons of Israel, “At evening 56you will know that the Lord has brought you out of the land of Egypt; 7and in the morning 7you will see 8the glory of the Lord, for 9He hears your grumblings against the Lord; and 10what are we, that you grumble against us?” 8And Moses said, “This will happen when the Lord gives you meat to eat in the evening, and bread to the full in the morning; for the Lord hears your grumblings which you grumble against Him. And what are we? Your grumblings are 11not against us but against the Lord.”
9Then Moses said to Aaron, “Say to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, ‘12Come forward before the Lord, for He has heard your grumblings.’” 10And it came about, as Aaron spoke to the entire congregation of the sons of Israel, that they 13looked toward the wilderness, and behold, 14the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud. 11And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 12“15I have heard the grumblings of the sons of Israel; speak to them, saying, ‘16At twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread; and 17you shall know that I am the Lord your God.’”
