1
And it came to pass that Israel went about to gather manna, some more, some less.
2
And when they did take enough, that they gathered much and had nothing over; and they that gathered little had no lack; they gathered everyone according to their eatinga.
3
And Moses said: Let no one leave of it till the morning.
4
Notwithstanding, they hearkened not unto Moses, but some of them left of it until the morning; and it bred maggots and stank; and Moses was wroth with them.
5
And they gathered it every morning, everyone according to their eating; and when the sun waxed hot, it melteda.
6
¶ And it came to pass that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much for one person; and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.
7
And Moses said unto them: This is that which YHVH hath said: Tomorrow is the rest of the holy Sabbatha of the Seventh Day unto YHVH;
8
Bake that which ye will bake today, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.
9
And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade; and it did not stink; neither was there any maggots therein.
10
And Moses said: Eat that today; for today is a Sabbath unto YHVH; today ye shall not find it in the field.
11
Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the Sabbath, in it there shall be none.
12
And it came to pass that there went out some of the people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found none.
13
¶ And YHVH said unto Moses and Zipporah: How long will my children refuse to keep my mitzvaha and my Torahb?
14
Look, for that YHVH hath given you the sabbath; therefore, He giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye everyone in their place; let no one go out of their place on the seventh day.
15
And it came to pass that Zipporah and Miriam went out and gathered the daughters of Israel, and they did grant them the mitzvah of the Sabbath of YHVH; and these daughters took this Torah back and taught their homes:
16
And Israel rested on the seventh day.
17
¶ And it came to pass that Moses said unto Israel: This is the mitzvah which YHVH hath given: Fill a vessel of the bread of YHVH to be kept for your generations,
18
That they may see the bread wherewith YHVH hath fed you in the wilderness when He brought you forth from the land of Egypt.
19
And Moses said unto Aaron: Take a pot, and fill it full of manna therein, and lay it up before YHVH, to be kept for your generations.
20
And it came to pass that as YHVH commanded Moses, so did Aaron, and he laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
21
And it came to pass that Israel did eat manna until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.
