    14When the layer of dew had evaporated, there on the surface of the wilderness was a thin flaky substance, thin like frost on the earth.

    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 for food.

    16“This is what the LORD has commanded:‘Each person is to gather from it what he can eat, an omer per person according to the number of your people; each one will pick it up for whoever lives in his tent.’”

    17The Israelites did so, and they gathered– some more, some less.

    18When they measured with an omer, the one who gathered much had nothing left over, and the one who gathered little lacked nothing; each one had gathered what he could eat.

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

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

    21So they gathered it each morning, each person according to what he could eat, and when the sun got hot, it would melt.

    22And on the sixth day they gathered twice as much food, two omers per person; and all the leaders of the community came and told Moses.

    23He said to them,“This is what the LORD has said:‘Tomorrow is a time of cessation from work, a holy Sabbath to the LORD. Whatever you want to bake, bake today; whatever you want to boil, boil today; whatever is left put aside for yourselves to be kept until morning.’”

    24So they put it aside until the morning, just as Moses had commanded, and it did not stink, nor were there any worms in it.

    25Moses said,“Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath to the LORD; today you will not find it in the area.

    26Six days you will gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will not be any.”

    30So the people rested on the seventh day.
