Exodus 16:13-18

13So when evening fell, quails came up and covered the camp. Moreover, in the morning there was a layer of dew all around the camp.

14When the layer of dew was gone, on the surface of the desert was a thin, flake-like frost, as fine as the frost on the ground.

15When Bnei-Yisrael saw it, they said one to another, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was. Then Moses said to them, “It is the bread that Adonai has given you to eat.

16This is the word that Adonai has commanded. Every man is to gather according to his needs, an omer per person, according to the number of people per household. Each man is to take it for those who are in his tent.”

17Bnei-Yisrael did so, and some gathered more, some less.

18When they measured it with an omer, those who gathered more had nothing left over, and those that gathered less did not lack at all. Every man gathered according to his appetite.
