Exodus 16:10-35

10And it came to pass, as AaronH175 spokeH1696 to the whole congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, that they lookedH6437 toward the wildernessH4057, and, behold, the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 in the cloudH6051. 11And the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559, 12I have heardH8085 the murmuringsH8519 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: speakH1696 to them, sayingH559, At eveningH996H6153 ye shall eatH398 fleshH1320, and in the morningH1242 ye shall be filledH7646 with breadH3899; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.

13And it came to pass, that at eveningH6153 the quailsH7958 came upH5927, and coveredH3680 the campH4264: and in the morningH1242 the dewH2919 layH7902 aroundH5439 the hostH4264. 14And when the dewH2919 that layH7902 was gone upH5927, behold, upon the faceH6440 of the wildernessH4057 there lay a smallH1851 round thingH2636, as smallH1851 as the hoar frostH3713 on the groundH776. 15And when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 sawH7200 it, they saidH559 oneH376 to anotherH251, It is mannaH4478: for they knewH3045 not what it was . And MosesH4872 saidH559 to them, This is the breadH3899 which the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 you to eatH402.1 16This is the thingH1697 whichH834 the LORDH3068 hath commandedH6680, GatherH3950 of it every manH376 accordingH6310 to his eatingH400, an omerH6016 for every manH1538, according to the numberH4557 of your personsH5315; takeH3947 ye every manH376 for them who are in his tentsH168.23 17And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 so, and gatheredH3950, some moreH7235, some lessH4591. 18And when they measuredH4058 it with an omerH6016, he that gathered muchH7235 had nothing overH5736, and he that gathered littleH4591 had no lackH2637; they gatheredH3950 every manH376 accordingH6310 to his eatingH400. 19And MosesH4872 saidH559, Let no manH376 leaveH3498 of it till the morningH1242. 20However they hearkenedH8085 not to MosesH4872; but someH582 of them leftH3498 of it until the morningH1242, and it bredH7311 wormsH8438, and stankH887: and MosesH4872 was angryH7107 with them. 21And they gatheredH3950 it every morningH1242, every manH376 accordingH6310 to his eatingH400: and when the sunH8121 became hotH2552, it meltedH4549.

22And it came to pass, that on the sixthH8345 dayH3117 they gatheredH3950 twiceH4932 as much breadH3899, twoH8147 omersH6016 for oneH259 man : and all the rulersH5387 of the congregationH5712 cameH935 and toldH5046 MosesH4872. 23And he saidH559 to them, This is that which the LORDH3068 hath saidH1696, To morrowH4279 is the restH7677 of the holyH6944 sabbathH7676 to the LORDH3068: bakeH644 that which ye will bakeH644 to day, and boilH1310 that ye will boilH1310; and that whichH3605 remaineth overH5736 lay upH3240 for you to be keptH4931 until the morningH1242. 24And they laid it upH3240 till the morningH1242, as MosesH4872 orderedH6680: and it did not stinkH887, neither was there any wormH7415 in it. 25And MosesH4872 saidH559, EatH398 that to dayH3117; for to dayH3117 is a sabbathH7676 to the LORDH3068: to dayH3117 ye shall not findH4672 it in the fieldH7704. 26SixH8337 daysH3117 ye shall gatherH3950 it; but on the seventhH7637 dayH3117, which is the sabbathH7676, in it there shall be none. 27And it came to pass, that some of the peopleH5971 went outH3318 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 to gatherH3950, and they foundH4672 none. 28And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, How long refuseH3985 ye to keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and my lawsH8451? 29SeeH7200, for that the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 you the sabbathH7676, therefore he givethH5414 you on the sixthH8345 dayH3117 the breadH3899 of two daysH3117; abideH3427 ye every manH376 in his place, let no manH376 go outH3318 of his placeH4725 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117. 30So the peopleH5971 restedH7673 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117. 31And the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 calledH7121 its nameH8034 MannaH4478: and it was like corianderH1407 seedH2233, whiteH3836; and the tasteH2940 of it was like wafersH6838 made with honeyH1706.

32And MosesH4872 saidH559, This is the thingH1697 which the LORDH3068 commandedH6680, FillH4393 an omerH6016 of it to be keptH4931 for your generationsH1755; that they may seeH7200 the breadH3899 that I fedH398 you in the wildernessH4057, when I brought you forthH3318 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 33And MosesH4872 saidH559 to AaronH175, TakeH3947 aH259 potH6803, and putH5414 an omerH6016 fullH4393 of mannaH4478 in it, and lay it upH3240 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, to be keptH4931 for your generationsH1755. 34As the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872, so AaronH175 laid it upH3240 beforeH6440 the TestimonyH5715, to be keptH4931. 35And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 ateH398 mannaH4478 fortyH705 yearsH8141, until they cameH935 to a landH776 inhabitedH3427; they ateH398 mannaH4478, until they cameH935 to the bordersH7097 of the landH776 of CanaanH3667.
