Exodus 16:14-18
141When the layerH7902 of dewH2919 2evaporatedH5927, beholdH2009, on the 3surfaceH6440 of the wildernessH4057 4there was a fineH1851 flake-likeH2636 thingH2636, fineH1851 as the frostH3713 on the groundH776.
15When the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 sawH7200 it, they saidH559 to oneH376 anotherH251, “5WhatH4478 is it?” For they did not knowH3045 whatH4100 it was. And MosesH4872 saidH559 to them, “6It is the breadH3899 whichH834 the LordH3068 has givenH5414 you to eatH402.
16ThisH2088 is 7whatH1697H834 the LordH3068 has commandedH6680: ‘EveryoneH376 gatherH3950 8as muchH6310 as he will eatH398; you shall takeH3947 910an omerH6016 apieceH1538 according to the numberH4557 of peopleH5315 eachH376 of you has in his tentH168.’”
17The sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 soH3651, and some gatheredH3950 muchH7235 and some littleH4591.
18When they measuredH4058 it by the 11omerH6016, 12the one who had gatheredH7235 muchH7235 did not haveH5736 tooH5736 muchH5736, and the one who had gatheredH4591 littleH4591 did not haveH2637 tooH2637 littleH2637; everyoneH376 gatheredH3950 13as muchH6310 as he would eatH398.
