18. And they measured by the measure of an omer. He who collected more, did not have too much; nor did he who prepared less, find too little. But each one gathered according to what they were able to eat.
19. And Moses said to them, "Let no one leave any of it behind until morning."
20. And they did not listen to him, but they left some of it behind until morning, and it began to swarm with worms, and it putrefied. And Moses became angry against them.
21. Then each one collected, in the morning, as much as would be sufficient to eat. And after the sun became hot, it melted.
22. But on the sixth day, they collected a double portion, that is, two omers for each man. Then all the leaders among the multitude came, and they discoursed with Moses.
23. And he said to them: "This is what the Lord has spoken: Tomorrow, the rest day of the Sabbath, has been sanctified to the Lord. Whatever would be done, do it now. And whatever would be cooked, cook it now. Then anything that will have been left over, store it until morning."
24. And they did just as Moses had instructed, and it did not putrefy, nor were there any worms found in it.
25. And Moses said: "Eat it today, because it is the Sabbath of the Lord. Today it will not be found in the field.
26. Gather for six days. But on the seventh day, it is the Sabbath of the Lord, for which reason it will not be found."
27. And the seventh day arrived. And some of the people, going out to collect it, did not find it.
