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.

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.

16 T This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, y an omer † for every man, according to the number of your † persons; take ye every man for them which are in his tents.

17 And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less. 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. 19 And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning.

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.

21 And they gathered it every morning, every man according to

his eating, and when the sun waxed

hot, it melted.

22 T 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 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.

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

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. 26 Six days ye shall gather it; but

The people murmur for water.

on the seventh day, which is the sab- Before bath, in it there shall be none.

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.

28 And the LORD said unto Moses, How long drefuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws? 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.

30 So the people rested on the seyenth day.

31 And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was Num. 11. 7, like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.

32 T 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.

33 And Moses said unto Aaron,

f Take a pot, and put an omer full of fHeb. 9. 4 manna therein, and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations.

34 As the LORD commanded Mo-geh, 25. 16, 21. ses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.

35 And the children of Israel did eat manna h forty years, i until they came to a land inhabited: they did eat manna, until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan. 36 Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.

And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the LORD? 3 And the people thirsted there for water; and the people d murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst? 4 And Moses cried unto the LORD, ech. 14. 15. saying, What shall I do unto this people? they be almost ready to stone me.

XHEN Jethro, the priest of

heard of all that b God had done for
Moses, and for Israel his people, and
that the LORD had brought Israel
out of Egypt;

2 Then Jethro, Moses' father in law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent her back,

7 T And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and did obeisance, and kissed him; and they asked each other of their welfare; and they came into the tent.
