11. And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
12. “I have heard the grumblings of the children of Yisra’ĕl. Speak to them, saying, ‘Between the evenings you are to eat meat, and in the morning you are to be satisfied with bread. And you shall know that I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ”
13. And it came to be that quails came up at evening and covered the camp, and in the morning the dew lay all around the camp.
14. And the layer of dew went up, and see, on the surface of the wilderness, was a small round substance, as fine as frost on the ground.
15. And the children of Yisra’ĕl saw, and they said to each other, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was. And Mosheh said to them, “It is the bread which יהוה has given you to eat.
16. “This is the word which יהוה has commanded: ‘Let every man gather it according to each one’s need, an omer for each being, according to the number of beings. Let every man take for those who are in his tent.’ ”
17. And the children of Yisra’ĕl did so and gathered, some more, some less.
18. And they measured it by omers, and he who gathered much did not have too much, and he who gathered little did not have too little. Each one gathered according to his need.
