18. When they measured it with an omer, he who gathered much had nothing over, and he who gathered little had no lack; each gathered according to his need.
19. Moses said, Let none of it be left until morning.
20. But they did not listen to Moses; some of them left of it until morning, and it bred worms, became foul, and stank; and Moses was angry with them.
21. They gathered it every morning, each as much as he needed, for when the sun became hot it melted.
22. And on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each person; and all the leaders of the congregation came and told Moses.
23. He said to them, The Lord has said, Tomorrow is a solemn rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord; bake and boil what you will bake and boil today; and all that remains over put aside for you to keep until morning.
24. They laid it aside till morning, as Moses told them; and it did not become foul, neither was it wormy.
25. Moses said, Eat that today, for today is a Sabbath to the Lord. Today you shall find none in the field.
26. Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there shall be none.
27. On the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they found none.
