16. “This is the thing which the Lord has commanded: ‘Gather of it everyone according to his eating; an omer a head, according to the number of your persons, you shall take it, every man for those who are in his tent.’”
17. The children of Israel did so, and gathered some more, some less.
18. When they measured it with an omer, he who gathered much had nothing over, and he who gathered little had no lack. They gathered every man according to his eating.
19. Moses said to them, “Let no one leave of it until the morning.”
