Exodus 16:2-9
2But the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 1grumbledH3885 againstH5921 MosesH4872 and AaronH175 in the wildernessH4057. 3The sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 to them, “2IfH4310H5414 onlyH4310H5414 we had diedH4191 by the Lord’sH3068 handH3027 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, 3when we satH3427 by the potsH5518 of meatH1320, when we ateH398 breadH3899 untilH7648 we were fullH7648; for you have broughtH3318 us outH3318 into thisH2088 wildernessH4057 to killH4191 thisH2088 entireH3605 assemblyH6951 with hungerH7458!”
4Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “BeholdH2009, 4I will rainH4305 breadH3899 from heavenH8064 for you; and the peopleH5971 shall goH3318 outH3318 and gatherH3950 a day’sH3117 portionH1697 every dayH3117, soH4616 thatH4616 I may 5testH5254 them, whether orH518 not they will walkH1980 in My 6instructionH8451. 57On the sixthH8345 dayH3117, when they prepareH3559 whatH834 they bringH935 inH935, it will be twiceH4932 as muchH834 as they gatherH3950 dailyH3117.” 6So MosesH4872 and AaronH175 saidH559 to allH3605 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, “At eveningH6153 89you will knowH3045 that the LordH3068 has broughtH3318 you outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714; 7and in the morningH1242 10you will seeH7200 11the gloryH3519 of the LordH3068, for 12He hearsH8085 your grumblingsH8519 againstH5921 the LordH3068; and 13whatH4100 are we, that you grumbleH3885 againstH5921 us?” 8And MosesH4872 saidH559, “This will happen when the LordH3068 givesH5414 you meatH1320 to eatH398 in the eveningH6153, and breadH3899 to theH7646 fullH7646 in the morningH1242; for the LordH3068 hearsH8085 your grumblingsH8519 whichH834 you grumbleH3885 againstH5921 Him. And whatH4100 are we? Your grumblingsH8519 are 14not againstH5921 us but againstH5921 the LordH3068.”
9Then MosesH4872 saidH559 to AaronH175, “SayH559 to allH3605 the congregationH5712 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, ‘15ComeH7126 forwardH7126 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, for He has heardH8085 your grumblingsH8519.’”
