Exodus 16:18-25 Webster Bible Translation (WBT)

18. And when they measured it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack: they gathered every man according to his eating.

19. And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning.

20. Notwithstanding, they hearkened not to Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and became offensive; and Moses was wroth with them.

21. And they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: and when the sun became hot, it melted.

22. And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.

23. And he said to them, This is that which the LORD hath said, To-morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath to the LORD: bake that which ye will bake to-day, and boil that ye will boil; and that which remaineth over, lay up for you to be kept until the morning.

24. And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses ordered: and it did not putrefy, neither was there any worm therein.

25. And Moses said, Eat that to-day; for to-day is a sabbath to the LORD; to-day ye will not find it in the field.
