36;
36 (An omer is One-Tenth of an ephah.)
369
34 As
the Lord commanded Moses,
Aaron put the Manna with the tablets of the Covenant Law, so that it might be preserved.
(7)
35 The Israelites ate
manna Forty years,
until they came to a land that was settled; they ate manna until they reached
the border of Canaan.
138
25 “Eat
it today,” Moses said, “because today is a sabbath to the Lord. You will not find any of it on the ground today.
(7)
26 Six days you are to gather
it, but on the Seventh
day, the Sabbath, there will not be any.”
27 Nevertheless, some
of the people went out on the Seventh day to gather it, but they found
none.
369
16 This
is what the Lord has commanded:
‘Everyone is to gather as much as they need. Take an
omer for each person you have in your tent.’” (7)
17 The Israelites did
as they were told; some gathered much, some little.
18 And when they
measured it by the omer, the one who gathered much did not have too much, and
the one who gathered little did not have too little. Everyone had gathered just as
much as they needed.
369
7 and
in the morning you will see the glory of the Lord, because he has heard your grumbling against him. Who are we,
that you should grumble against us?”
(7)
8 Moses also said,
“You will know that it was the Lord when he gives you
meat to eat in the evening and all the bread you want in the morning, because
he has heard your grumbling against him. Who are we? You are not grumbling against
us, but against the Lord.”
9 Then Moses told
Aaron, “Say to the entire Israelite community, ‘Come before the Lord,
for he has heard your grumbling.’”
369
31 The
people of Israel called the bread manna. It was white like coriander seed and
tasted like wafers made with honey.
(4)
32 Moses said, “This
is what the Lord has Commanded: ‘Take an omer of manna and keep it for the
generations to come, so they can see the bread I gave you to eat in the
wilderness when I brought you out of Egypt.’”
33 So Moses said to
Aaron, “Take a jar and
put an omer of manna in it. Then place it before the Lord
to be kept for the generations to come.”
369
22 On
the sixth day, they gathered twice as much—two omers for each person—and the leaders of the community
came and reported this to Moses.
(4)
23 He said to them, “This is what the Lord
commanded: ‘Tomorrow is to
be a day of Sabbath
Rest, a Holy Sabbath to the Lord.
So bake what you want to bake and boil what you want to boil. Save whatever is left and keep it until morning.’”
24 So they saved it until morning,
as Moses Commanded, and it did not stink or get maggots in it.
369
13 That
evening quail came and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer
of dew around the camp.
(4)
14 When the dew was
gone, thin flakes like frost on the ground appeared on the desert floor.
15 When the Israelites
saw it, they said to each other, “What is it?” For they did not know what it
was. Moses said to them, “It is the bread the Lord
has given you to eat.
369
4 Then
the Lord said to Moses, “I
will rain down bread from heaven for you. The people are to go out each day and
gather enough for that day.
In this way I will
test them and see whether they will follow My instructions. (4)
5 On the sixth day
they are to prepare what they bring in, and that is to be twice as much as they
gather on the other days.”
6 So Moses and Aaron
said to all the Israelites, “In the evening
you will know that it was the Lord who brought you out of Egypt, (on Friday)
369
28 Then
the Lord said to Moses, “How long will
you refuse to keep My Commands and My Instructions? (1)
29 Bear in mind that the Lord
has given you the Sabbath; that is why on the Sixth Day He gives you bread for Two Days.
Everyone is to stay where they are on the Seventh Day; no one is to go out.”
30 So the people Rested on the Seventh Day.
138
19 Then
Moses said to them, “No one is to keep any of it until morning.” (1)
20 However, some of them paid no
attention to Moses; they kept part of it until morning, but it was full of
maggots and began to smell. So Moses was angry with them.
21 Each morning
everyone gathered as much as they needed, and when the sun grew hot, it melted
away.
138
10 While
Aaron was speaking to the whole Israelite community, they looked toward the
desert, and there was the
Glory of the Lord
Appearing in the Cloud. (1)
11 The Lord said to Moses,
12 “I have heard the grumbling of the Israelites. Tell
them, ‘At twilight you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be filled
with bread. Then
you will know that I am the Lord your God.’”
138
Manna and Quail
16 The whole Israelite community set out from Elim and came to the
Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth
day of the second month after they had come out of Egypt. (1)
2 In the desert the
whole community grumbled against Moses and Aaron.
3 The Israelites said
to them, “If only we had died by the Lord’s hand in Egypt!
There we sat around pots of meat and ate all the food we wanted, but you have
brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assembly to death.”
