EX-16:1  And they took their journey from Elim, and all the


congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness

of


Sin, which [is] between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of

the


second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.




EX-16:2  And the whole congregation of the children of Israel


murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness:




EX-16:3  And the children of Israel said unto them, Would to God

we


had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we

sat


by the flesh pots, [and] when we did eat bread to the full; for

ye


have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole


assembly with hunger.




EX-16:4  Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread


from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a


certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will


walk in my law, or no.




EX-16:5  And it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day they

shall


prepare [that] which they bring in; and it shall be twice as

much as


they gather daily.




EX-16:6  And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of

Israel,


At even, then ye shall know that the LORD hath brought you out

from


the land of Egypt:




EX-16:7  And in the morning, then ye shall see the glory of the


LORD; for that he heareth your murmurings against the LORD: and

what


[are] we, that ye murmur against us?




EX-16:8  And Moses said, [This shall be], when the LORD shall

give


you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the


full; for that the LORD heareth your murmurings which ye murmur


against him: and what [are] we? your murmurings [are] not against


us, but against the LORD.




EX-16:9  And Moses spake unto Aaron, Say unto all the

congregation


of the children of Israel, Come near before the LORD: for he hath


heard your murmurings.




EX-16:10  And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole


congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward

the


wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the


cloud.




EX-16:11  And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,




EX-16:12  I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel:


speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the


morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I

[am]


the LORD your God.




EX-16:13  And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up,

and


covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the


host.




EX-16:14  And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the


face of the wilderness [there lay] a small round thing, [as]

small


as the hoar frost on the ground.




EX-16:15  And when the children of Israel saw [it], they said

one to


another, It [is] manna: for they wist not what it [was]. And

Moses


said unto them, This [is] the bread which the LORD hath given

you to


eat.




EX-16:16  This [is] the thing which the LORD hath commanded,

Gather


of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man,


[according to] the number of your persons; take ye every man for


[them] which [are] in his tents.




EX-16:17  And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some


more, some less.




EX-16:18  And when they did mete [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.




EX-16:19  And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the

morning.




EX-16:20  Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses; but

some of


them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank:

and


Moses was wroth with them.




EX-16:21  And they gathered it every morning, every man

according to


his eating: and when the sun waxed hot, it melted.




EX-16:22  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.




EX-16:23  And he said unto them, This [is that] which the LORD

hath


said, To morrow [is] the rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD:


bake [that] which ye will bake [to day], and seethe that ye will


seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept


until the morning.




EX-16:24  And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade:

and


it did not stink, neither was there any worm therein.




EX-16:25  And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day [is] a

sabbath


unto the LORD: to day ye shall not find it in the field.




EX-16:26  Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day,


[which is] the sabbath, in it there shall be none.




EX-16:27  And it came to pass, [that] there went out [some] of

the


people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found none.




EX-16:28  And the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to

keep


my commandments and my laws?




EX-16:29  See, for that the LORD hath given you the sabbath,


therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days;


abide ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place

on


the seventh day.




EX-16:30  So the people rested on the seventh day.




EX-16:31  And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna:

and


it [was] like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it [was]

like


wafers [made] with honey.




EX-16:32  And Moses said, This [is] the thing which the LORD


commandeth, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations;

that


they may see the bread wherewith I have fed you in the

wilderness,


when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.




EX-16:33  And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer


full of manna therein, and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept

for


your generations.




EX-16:34  As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before


the Testimony, to be kept.




EX-16:35  And the children of Israel did eat manna forty years,


until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until

they


came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.




EX-16:36  Now an omer [is] the tenth [part] of an ephah.
