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.

And they departed from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai; and on the fifteenth day, in the second month after their departure from the land of Egypt,

And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;

all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron.

and the children of Israel said unto them: 'Would that we had died by the hand of HaShem in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-pots, when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.'

And the children of Israel said to them, Would we had died smitten by the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the fleshpots, and ate bread to satiety! for ye have brought us out into this wilderness, to slay all this congregation with hunger.

Then said HaShem unto Moses: 'Behold, I will cause to rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in My law, or not.

And the Lord said to Moses, Behold, I [will] rain bread upon you out of heaven: and the people shall go forth, and they shall gather their daily portion for the day, that I may try them whether they will walk in my law or not.

And it shall come to pass on the sixth day that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.'

And it shall come to pass on the sixth day that they shall prepare whatsoever they have brought in, and it shall be double of what they shall have gathered for the day, daily.

And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel: 'At even, then ye shall know that HaShem hath brought you out from the land of Egypt;

And Moses and Aaron said to all the congregation of the children of Israel, At even ye shall know that the Lord has brought you out of the land of Egypt;

and in the morning, then ye shall see the glory of HaShem; for that He hath heard your murmurings against HaShem; and what are we, that ye murmur against us?'

and in the morning ye shall see the glory of the Lord, inasmuch as he hears your murmuring against God; and who are we, that ye continue to murmur against us?

And Moses said: 'This shall be, when HaShem shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that HaShem heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against Him; and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against HaShem.'

And Moses said, [This shall be] when the Lord gives you in the evening flesh to eat, and bread in the morning to satiety, because the Lord has heard your murmuring, which ye murmur against us: and what are we? for your murmuring is not against us, but against God.

And Moses said unto Aaron: 'Say unto all the congregation of the children of Israel: Come near before HaShem; for He hath heard your murmurings.'

And Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before God; for he has heard your murmuring.

And it came to pass, as Aaron spoke unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of HaShem appeared in the cloud.

And when Aaron spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and they turned toward the wilderness, then the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.

And HaShem spoke unto Moses, saying:

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

'I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel. Speak unto them, saying: At dusk ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am HaShem your G-d.'

I have heard the murmuring of the children of Israel: speak to them, saying, Toward evening ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be satisfied with bread; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God.

And it came to pass at even, that the quails came up, and covered the camp; and in the morning there was a layer of dew round about the camp.

And it was evening, and quails came up and covered the camp:

And when the layer of dew was gone up, behold upon the face of the wilderness a fine, scale-like thing, fine as the hoar-frost on the ground.

in the morning it came to pass as the dew ceased round about the camp, that, behold, on the face of the wilderness [was] a small thing like white coriander seed, as frost upon the earth.

And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another: 'What is it?' --for they knew not what it was. And Moses said unto them: 'It is the bread which HaShem hath given you to eat.

And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, What is this? for they knew not what it was; and Moses said to them,

This is the thing which HaShem hath commanded: Gather ye of it every man according to his eating; an omer a head, according to the number of your persons, shall ye take it, every man for them that are in his tent.'

This [is] the bread which the Lord has given you to eat. This is that which the Lord has appointed: gather of it each man for his family, an omer for each person, according to the number of your souls, gather each of you with his fellow lodgers.

And the children of Israel did so, and gathered some more, some less.

And the children of Israel did so, and gathered some much and some less.

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.

And having measured the omer [full], he that had gathered much had nothing over, and he that had gathered less had no lack; each gathered according to the need of those who belonged to him.

And Moses said unto them: 'Let no man leave of it till the morning.'

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

Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and rotted; and Moses was wroth with them.

But they did not hearken to Moses, but some left of it till the morning; and it bred worms and stank: and Moses was irritated with them.

And they gathered it morning by morning, every man according to his eating; and as the sun waxed hot, it melted.

And they gathered it every morning, each man what he needed, and when the sun waxed hot it melted.

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

And it came to pass on the sixth day, they gathered double what was needed, two omers for one [man]; and all the chiefs of the synagogue went in and reported it to Moses.

And he said unto them: 'This is that which HaShem hath spoken: To-morrow is a solemn rest, a holy sabbath unto HaShem. Bake that which ye will bake, and seethe that which ye will seethe; and all that remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.'

And Moses said to them, Is not this the word which the Lord spoke? Tomorrow [is] the Sabbath, a holy rest to the Lord: bake that ye will bake, and seethe that ye will seethe, and all that is over leave to be laid by for the morrow.

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

And they left of it till the morning, as Moses commanded them; and it stank not, neither was there a worm in it.

And Moses said: 'Eat that to-day; for to-day is a sabbath unto HaShem; to-day ye shall not find it in the field.

And Moses said, Eat [that] today, for today is a Sabbath to the Lord: [it] shall not be found in the plain.

Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.'

Six days ye shall gather it, and on the seventh day is a Sabbath, for there shall be none on that [day].

And it came to pass on the seventh day, that there went out some of the people to gather, and they found none.

And it came to pass on the seventh day [that] some of the people went forth to gather, and found none.

And HaShem said unto Moses: 'How long refuse ye to keep My commandments and My laws?

And the Lord said to Moses, How long are ye unwilling to hearken to my commands and my law?

See that HaShem 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 clay.'

See, for the Lord has given you this day [as] the Sabbath, therefore he has given you on the sixth day the bread of two days: ye shall sit each of you in your houses; let no one go forth from his place on the seventh day.

So the people rested on the seventh day.

And the people kept Sabbath on the seventh day.

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.

And the children of Israel called the name of it Manna; and it was as white coriander seed, and the taste of it as a wafer with honey.

And Moses said: 'This is the thing which HaShem hath commanded: Let an omerful of it be kept throughout your generations; that they may see the bread wherewith I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.'

And Moses said, This [is] the thing which the Lord hath commanded, Fill an omer with manna, to be laid up for your generations; that they may see the bread which ye ate in the wilderness, when the Lord led you forth out of the land of Egypt.

And Moses said unto Aaron: 'Take a jar, and put an omerful of manna therein, and lay it up before HaShem, to be kept throughout your generations.'

And Moses said to Aaron, Take a golden pot, and cast into it one full omer of manna; and thou shalt lay it up before God, to be kept for your generations,

As HaShem commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.

as the Lord commanded Moses: and Aaron laid it up before the testimony to be kept.

And the children of Israel did eat the manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat the manna, until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.

And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to the land they ate the manna, until they came to the region of Phoenicia.

Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.

Now the omer was the tenth part of three measures.
