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.
19. And Mosheh said, “Let no one leave any of it until morning.”
20. And they did not listen to Mosheh, so some of them left part of it until morning, and it bred worms and stank. And Mosheh was wroth with them.
21. And they gathered it every morning, each one according to his need. And when the sun became hot, it melted.
22. And it came to be, on the sixth day, that they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one. And all the rulers of the congregation came and told Mosheh.
23. And he said to them, “This is what יהוה has said, ‘Tomorrow is a rest, a Sabbath set-apart to יהוה. That which you bake, bake; and that which you cook, cook. And lay up for yourselves all that is left over, to keep it until morning.’ ”
24. And they laid it up till morning, as Mosheh commanded. And it did not stink, and no worm was in it.
25. And Mosheh said, “Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath to יהוה, today you do not find it in the field.
26. “Gather it six days, but on the seventh day, which is the Sabbath, there is none.”
27. And it came to be that some of the people went out on the seventh day to gather, but they found none.
28. And יהוה said to Mosheh, “How long shall you refuse to guard My commands and My Torot?
29. “See, because יהוה has given you the Sabbath, therefore He is giving you bread for two days on the sixth day. Let each one stay in his place, do not let anyone go out of his place on the seventh day.”
