    15When the Israelites saw it, they said to one another, "What is it?" because they did not know what it was. Moses said to them, "It is the bread that the LORD has given you to eat.

    16This is what the LORD has commanded: 'Each person is to gather as much as they need to eat. Take an omer for each person according to the number of people in your tent.'

    17The Israelites did as they were told. Some gathered much, and some gathered little.

    18When they measured it with an omer, those who gathered much did not have too much, and those who gathered little did not have too little. Each person gathered just as much as they needed to eat.

    19Then Moses said to them, "No one is to keep any of it until morning."

    20But some of them did not listen to Moses and kept part of it until morning. It bred worms and began to stink, and Moses was angry with them.

    21Each morning, everyone gathered as much as they needed, and when the sun grew hot, it melted away.

    22On the sixth day, they gathered twice as much bread—two omers for each person—and all the leaders of the community came and reported this to Moses.

    23He said to them, "This is what the LORD has said: 'Tomorrow is to be a day of complete rest, a holy sabbath to the LORD. Bake what you want to bake and boil what you want to boil today, and save whatever is left over to keep until morning.'"

    24So they saved it until morning as Moses commanded, and it did not stink or have maggots in it.

    25Moses said, "Eat it today, because today is a sabbath to the LORD. You will not find any of it in the field today.
