1 And they took their journey * h5265 h8799 from Elim * h362, and all the congregation * h5712 of the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 came * h935 h8799 unto the wilderness * h4057 of Sin * h5512, which is between Elim * h362 and Sinai * h5514, on the fifteenth * h2568 * h6240 day * h3117 of the second * h8145 month * h2320 after their departing out * h3318 h8800 of the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714.
2 And the whole congregation * h5712 of the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 murmured * h3885 h8735 against Moses * h4872 and Aaron * h175 in the wilderness * h4057:
3 And the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 said * h559 h8799 unto them, Would to God * h4310 * h5414 h8799 we had died * h4191 h8800 by the hand * h3027 of the LORD * h3068 in the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714, when we sat * h3427 h8800 by the flesh * h1320 pots * h5518, and when we did eat * h398 h8800 bread * h3899 to the full * h7648; for ye have brought us forth * h3318 h8689 into this wilderness * h4057, to kill * h4191 h8687 this whole assembly * h6951 with hunger * h7458.
4 Then said * h559 h8799 the LORD * h3068 unto Moses * h4872, Behold, I will rain * h4305 h8688 bread * h3899 from heaven * h8064 for you; and the people * h5971 shall go out * h3318 h8804 and gather * h3950 h8804 a certain rate * h1697 every day * h3117 * h3117, that I may prove * h5254 h8762 them, whether they will walk * h3212 h8799 in my law * h8451, or no. a certain...: Heb. the portion of a day in his day
5 And it shall come to pass, that on the sixth * h8345 day * h3117 they shall prepare * h3559 h8689 that which * h834 they bring in * h935 h8686; and it shall be twice * h4932 as much as they gather * h3950 h8799 daily * h3117 * h3117.
6 And Moses * h4872 and Aaron * h175 said * h559 h8799 unto all the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, At even * h6153, then ye shall know * h3045 h8804 that the LORD * h3068 hath brought you out * h3318 h8689 from the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714:
7 And in the morning * h1242, then ye shall see * h7200 h8804 the glory * h3519 of the LORD * h3068; for that he heareth * h8085 h8800 your murmurings * h8519 against the LORD * h3068: and what are we * h5168, that ye murmur * h3885 h8686 h8675 * h3885 h8735 against us?
8 And Moses * h4872 said * h559 h8799, This shall be , when the LORD * h3068 shall give * h5414 h8800 you in the evening * h6153 flesh * h1320 to eat * h398 h8800, and in the morning * h1242 bread * h3899 to the full * h7646 h8800; for that the LORD * h3068 heareth * h8085 h8800 your murmurings * h8519 which ye murmur * h3885 h8688 against him: and what are we * h5168? your murmurings * h8519 are not against us, but against the LORD * h3068.
9 And Moses * h4872 spake * h559 h8799 unto Aaron * h175, Say * h559 h8798 unto all the congregation * h5712 of the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, Come near * h7126 h8798 before * h6440 the LORD * h3068: for he hath heard * h8085 h8804 your murmurings * h8519.
10 And it came to pass, as Aaron * h175 spake * h1696 h8763 unto the whole congregation * h5712 of the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, that they looked * h6437 h8799 toward the wilderness * h4057, and, behold, the glory * h3519 of the LORD * h3068 appeared * h7200 h8738 in the cloud * h6051.
11 And the LORD * h3068 spake * h1696 h8762 unto Moses * h4872, saying * h559 h8800,
12 I have heard * h8085 h8804 the murmurings * h8519 of the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478: speak * h1696 h8761 unto them, saying * h559 h8800, At even * h996 * h6153 ye shall eat * h398 h8799 flesh * h1320, and in the morning * h1242 ye shall be filled * h7646 h8799 with bread * h3899; and ye shall know * h3045 h8804 that I am the LORD * h3068 your God * h430.
13 And it came to pass, that at even * h6153 the quails * h7958 came up * h5927 h8799, and covered * h3680 h8762 the camp * h4264: and in the morning * h1242 the dew * h2919 lay * h7902 round about * h5439 the host * h4264.
14 And when the dew * h2919 that lay * h7902 was gone up * h5927 h8799, behold, upon the face * h6440 of the wilderness * h4057 there lay a small * h1851 round thing * h2636 h8794, as small * h1851 as the hoar frost * h3713 on the ground * h776.
15 And when the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 saw * h7200 h8799 it , they said * h559 h8799 one * h376 to another * h251, It is manna * h4478: for they wist * h3045 h8804 not what it was . And Moses * h4872 said * h559 h8799 unto them, This is the bread * h3899 which the LORD * h3068 hath given * h5414 h8804 you to eat * h402. It is...: or, What is this? or, It is a portion
16 This is the thing * h1697 which * h834 the LORD * h3068 hath commanded * h6680 h8765, Gather * h3950 h8798 of it every man * h376 according * h6310 to his eating * h400, an omer * h6016 for every man * h1538, according to the number * h4557 of your persons * h5315; take * h3947 h8799 ye every man * h376 for them which are in his tents * h168. for every...: Heb. by the poll, or, head persons: Heb. souls
17 And the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 did * h6213 h8799 so, and gathered * h3950 h8799, some more * h7235 h8688, some less * h4591 h8688.
18 And when they did mete * h4058 h8799 it with an omer * h6016, he that gathered much * h7235 h8688 had nothing over * h5736 h8689, and he that gathered little * h4591 h8688 had no lack * h2637 h8689; they gathered * h3950 h8804 every man * h376 according * h6310 to his eating * h400.
19 And Moses * h4872 said * h559 h8799, Let no man * h376 leave * h3498 h8686 of it till the morning * h1242.
20 Notwithstanding they hearkened * h8085 h8804 not unto Moses * h4872; but some * h582 of them left * h3498 h8686 of it until the morning * h1242, and it bred * h7311 h8799 worms * h8438, and stank * h887 h8799: and Moses * h4872 was wroth * h7107 h8799 with them.
21 And they gathered * h3950 h8799 it every morning * h1242, every man * h376 according * h6310 to his eating * h400: and when the sun * h8121 waxed hot * h2552 h8804, it melted * h4549 h8738.
22 And it came to pass, that on the sixth * h8345 day * h3117 they gathered * h3950 h8804 twice * h4932 as much bread * h3899, two * h8147 omers * h6016 for one * h259 man : and all the rulers * h5387 of the congregation * h5712 came * h935 h8799 and told * h5046 h8686 Moses * h4872.
23 And he said * h559 h8799 unto them, This is that which the LORD * h3068 hath said * h1696 h8765, To morrow * h4279 is the rest * h7677 of the holy * h6944 sabbath * h7676 unto the LORD * h3068: bake * h644 h8798 that which ye will bake * h644 h8799 to day , and seethe * h1310 h8761 that ye will seethe * h1310 h8762; and that which * h3605 remaineth over * h5736 h8802 lay up * h3240 h8685 for you to be kept * h4931 until the morning * h1242.
24 And they laid it up * h3240 h8686 till the morning * h1242, as Moses * h4872 bade * h6680 h8765: and it did not stink * h887 h8689, neither was there any worm * h7415 therein.
25 And Moses * h4872 said * h559 h8799, Eat * h398 h8798 that to day * h3117; for to day * h3117 is a sabbath * h7676 unto the LORD * h3068: to day * h3117 ye shall not find * h4672 h8799 it in the field * h7704.
26 Six * h8337 days * h3117 ye shall gather * h3950 h8799 it; but on the seventh * h7637 day * h3117, which is the sabbath * h7676, in it there shall be none.
27 And it came to pass, that there went out * h3318 h8804 some of the people * h5971 on the seventh * h7637 day * h3117 for to gather * h3950 h8800, and they found * h4672 h8804 none.
28 And the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, How long refuse * h3985 h8765 ye to keep * h8104 h8800 my commandments * h4687 and my laws * h8451?
29 See * h7200 h8798, for that the LORD * h3068 hath given * h5414 h8804 you the sabbath * h7676, therefore he giveth * h5414 h8802 you on the sixth * h8345 day * h3117 the bread * h3899 of two days * h3117; abide * h3427 h8798 ye every man * h376 in his place, let no man * h376 go out * h3318 h8799 of his place * h4725 on the seventh * h7637 day * h3117.
30 So the people * h5971 rested * h7673 h8799 on the seventh * h7637 day * h3117.
31 And the house * h1004 of Israel * h3478 called * h7121 h8799 the name * h8034 thereof Manna * h4478: and it was like coriander * h1407 seed * h2233, white * h3836; and the taste * h2940 of it was like wafers * h6838 made with honey * h1706.
32 And Moses * h4872 said * h559 h8799, This is the thing * h1697 which the LORD * h3068 commandeth * h6680 h8765, Fill * h4393 an omer * h6016 of it to be kept * h4931 for your generations * h1755; that they may see * h7200 h8799 the bread * h3899 wherewith I have fed * h398 h8689 you in the wilderness * h4057, when I brought you forth * h3318 h8687 from the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714.
33 And Moses * h4872 said * h559 h8799 unto Aaron * h175, Take * h3947 h8798 a * h259 pot * h6803, and put * h5414 h8798 an omer * h6016 full * h4393 of manna * h4478 therein, and lay it up * h3240 h8685 before * h6440 the LORD * h3068, to be kept * h4931 for your generations * h1755.
34 As the LORD * h3068 commanded * h6680 h8765 Moses * h4872, so Aaron * h175 laid it up * h3240 h8686 before * h6440 the Testimony * h5715, to be kept * h4931.
35 And the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 did eat * h398 h8804 manna * h4478 forty * h705 years * h8141, until they came * h935 h8800 to a land * h776 inhabited * h3427 h8737; they did eat * h398 h8804 manna * h4478, until they came * h935 h8800 unto the borders * h7097 of the land * h776 of Canaan * h3667.
36 Now an omer * h6016 is the tenth * h6224 part of an ephah * h374.
