New Testament

Exodus 16:24-29 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

24. So they saved it until morning, just as Moses commanded. It didn't stink or get maggots in it.

25. "Eat it today," Moses said. "Today is a Sabbath day in the Lord's honor. You won't find any flakes on the ground today.

26. Gather them for six days. But on the seventh day there won't be any. It's the Sabbath."

27. In spite of what Moses said, some of the people went out on the seventh day to gather the flakes. But they didn't find any.

28. Then the Lord spoke to Moses. He said, "How long will all of you refuse to obey my commands and my teachings?

29. Keep in mind that I have given you the Sabbath day. That is why on the sixth day I give you bread for two days. All of you must stay where you are on the seventh day. No one can go out."
