Manna and the Institution of the Sabbath

22

And the sixt day they gathered twise so much bread, two Omers for one man: then all the rulers of the Congregation came and told Moses.

23

And he answered them, This is that, which the Lord hath sayde, To morowe is the rest of the holy Sabbath vnto the Lord: bake that to day which ye wil bake, and seethe that which ye wil seethe, and all that remaineth, lay it vp to be kept till the morning for you.

24

And they laied it vp till the morning, as Moses bade, and it stanke not, neyther was there any worme therein.

25

Then Moses sayde, Eate that to day: for to day is the Sabbath vnto the Lord: to day ye shall not finde it in the fielde.

26

Sixe dayes shall yee gather it, but in the seuenth day is the Sabbath: in it there shalbe none.

27

Notwithstanding, there went out some of the people in ye seuenth day for to gather, and they found none.

28

And the Lord sayde vnto Moses, Howe long refuse yee to keepe my commandements, and my lawes?

29

Beholde, howe the Lord hath giuen you the Sabbath: therefore he giueth you the sixt day bread for two dayes: tary therefore euery man in his place: let no man goe out of his place the seuenth day.

30

So the people rested the seuenth day.
