19. Moses said to them, “No one is to keep any of it for tomorrow.”
20. But some of them did not listen to Moses and saved part of it. The next morning it was full of worms and smelt rotten, and Moses was angry with them.
21. Every morning each one gathered as much as he needed; and when the sun grew hot, what was left on the ground melted.
22. On the sixth day they gathered twice as much food, four litres for each person. All the leaders of the community came and told Moses about it,
23. and he said to them, “The Lord has commanded that tomorrow is a holy day of rest, dedicated to him. Bake today what you want to bake and boil what you want to boil. Whatever is left should be put aside and kept for tomorrow.”
