Exodus 16:2-8 Amplified Bible (AMP)

2. And the whole congregation of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness,

3. And said to them, Would that we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the fleshpots and ate bread to the full; for you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger.

4. Then the Lord said to Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from the heavens 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.

5. On the sixth day they shall prepare to bring in twice as much as they gather daily.

6. So Moses and Aaron said to all Israel, At evening you shall know that the Lord has brought you out from the land of Egypt,

7. And in the morning you shall see the glory of the Lord, for He hears your murmurings against the Lord. For what are we, that you murmur against us?

8. And Moses said, [This will happen] when the Lord gives you in the evening flesh to eat and in the morning bread to the full, because the Lord has heard your grumblings which you murmur against Him; what are we? Your murmurings are not against us, but against the Lord.
