1. When they journeyed from Elim, the entire company of Israelites came to the Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their exodus from the land of Egypt.
|
1. And they took their journey H5265 from Elim H4480 H362 , and all H3605 the congregation H5712 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 came H935 unto H413 the wilderness H4057 of Sin H5512 , which H834 is between H996 Elim H362 and Sinai H5514 , on the fifteenth H2508 H6240 day H3117 of the second H8145 month H2320 after their departing out H3318 of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
2. The entire company of Israelites murmured against Moses and Aaron in the desert.
|
2. And the whole H3605 congregation H5712 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 murmured H3885 against H5921 Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 in the wilderness H4057 :
|
|
3. The Israelites said to them, "If only we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the pots of meat, when we ate bread to the full, for you have brought us out into this desert to kill this whole assembly with hunger!"
|
3. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 said H559 unto H413 them , Would to God H4310 H5414 we had died H4191 by the hand H3027 of the LORD H3068 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714 , when we sat H3427 by H5921 the flesh H1320 pots H5518 , and when we did eat H398 bread H3899 to the full H7648 ; for H3588 ye have brought us forth H3318 H853 into H413 this H2088 wilderness H4057 , to kill H4191 H853 this H2088 whole H3605 assembly H6951 with hunger H7458 .
|
|
4. Then the LORD said to Moses, "I am going to rain bread from heaven for you, and the people will go out and gather the amount for each day, so that I may test them. Will they will walk in my law or not?
|
4. Then said H559 the LORD H3068 unto H413 Moses H4872 , Behold H2009 , I will rain H4305 bread H3899 from H4480 heaven H8064 for you ; and the people H5971 shall go out H3318 and gather H3950 a certain rate every day H1697 H3117 H3117 , that H4616 I may prove H5254 them , whether they will walk H1980 in my law H8451 , or H518 no H3808 .
|
|
5. On the sixth day they will prepare what they bring in, and it will be twice as much as they gather every other day."
|
5. And it shall come to pass H1961 , that on the sixth H8345 day H3117 they shall prepare H3559 H853 that which H834 they bring in H935 ; and it shall be H1961 twice H4932 as much as H5921 H834 they gather H3950 daily H3117 H3117 .
|
|
6. Moses and Aaron said to all the Israelites, "In the evening you will know that the LORD has brought you out of the land of Egypt,
|
6. And Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 said H559 unto H413 all H3605 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , At even H6153 , then ye shall know H3045 that H3588 the LORD H3068 hath brought you out H3318 H853 from the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 :
|
|
7. and in the morning you will see the glory of the LORD, because he has heard your murmurings against the LORD. As for us, what are we, that you should murmur against us?"
|
7. And in the morning H1242 , then ye shall see H7200 H853 the glory H3519 of the LORD H3068 ; for that he heareth H8085 H853 your murmurings H8519 against H5921 the LORD H3068 : and what H4100 are we H5168 , that H3588 ye murmur H3885 against H5921 us?
|
|
8. Moses said, "You will know this when the LORD gives you meat to eat in the evening and bread in the morning to satisfy you, because the LORD has heard your murmurings that you are murmuring against him. As for us, what are we? Your murmurings are not against us, but against the LORD."
|
8. And Moses H4872 said H559 , This shall be , when the LORD H3068 shall give H5414 you in the evening H6153 flesh H1320 to eat H398 , and in the morning H1242 bread H3899 to the full H7646 ; for that the LORD H3068 heareth H8085 H853 your murmurings H8519 which H834 ye H859 murmur H3885 against H5921 him : and what H4100 are we H5168 ? your murmurings H8519 are not H3808 against H5921 us, but H3588 against H5921 the LORD H3068 .
|
|
9. Then Moses said to Aaron, "Tell the whole community of the Israelites, 'Come before the LORD, because he has heard your murmurings.'"
|
9. And Moses H4872 spoke H559 unto H413 Aaron H175 , Say H559 unto H413 all H3605 the congregation H5712 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , Come near H7126 before H6440 the LORD H3068 : for H3588 he hath heard H8085 H853 your murmurings H8519 .
|
|
10. As Aaron spoke to the whole community of the Israelites and they looked toward the desert, there the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud,
|
10. And it came to pass H1961 , as Aaron H175 spoke H1696 unto H413 the whole H3605 congregation H5712 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , that they looked H6437 toward H413 the wilderness H4057 , and, behold H2009 , the glory H3519 of the LORD H3068 appeared H7200 in the cloud H6051 .
|
|
11. and the LORD spoke to Moses:
|
11. And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses H4872 , saying H559 ,
|
|
12. "I have heard the murmurings of the Israelites. Tell them, 'During the evening you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be satisfied with bread, so that you may know that I am the LORD your God.'"
|
12. I have heard H8085 H853 the murmurings H8519 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 : speak H1696 unto H413 them, saying H559 , At H996 even H6153 ye shall eat H398 flesh H1320 , and in the morning H1242 ye shall be filled H7646 with bread H3899 ; and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD H3068 your God H430 .
|
|
13. In the evening the quail came up and covered the camp, and in the morning a layer of dew was all around the camp.
|
13. And it came to pass H1961 , that at even H6153 the quails H7958 came up H5927 , and covered H3680 H853 the camp H4264 : and in the morning H1242 the dew H2919 lay H1961 H7902 round about H5439 the host H4264 .
|
|
14. When the layer of dew had evaporated, there on the surface of the desert was a thin flaky substance, thin like frost on the earth.
|
14. And when the dew H2919 that lay H7902 was gone up H5927 , behold H2009 , upon H5921 the face H6440 of the wilderness H4057 there lay a small H1851 round thing H2636 , as small H1851 as the hoar frost H3713 on H5921 the ground H776 .
|
|
15. When the Israelites saw it, they said to one another, "What is it?" because they did not know what it was. Moses said to them, "It is the bread that the LORD has given you for food.
|
15. And when the children H1121 of Israel H3478 saw H7200 it , they said H559 one H376 to H413 another H251 , It H1931 is manna H4478 : for H3588 they knew H3045 not H3808 what H4100 it H1931 was . And Moses H4872 said H559 unto H413 them, This H1931 is the bread H3899 which H834 the LORD H3068 hath given H5414 you to eat H402 .
|
|
16. "This is what the LORD has commanded: 'Each person is to gather from it what he can eat, an omer per person according to the number of your people; each one will pick it up for whoever lives in his tent.'"
|
16. This H2088 is the thing H1697 which H834 the LORD H3068 hath commanded H6680 , Gather H3950 of H4480 it every man H376 according to H6310 his eating H400 , an omer H6016 for every man H1538 , according to the number H4557 of your persons H5315 ; take H3947 ye every man H376 for them which H834 are in his tents H168 .
|
|
17. The Israelites did so, and they gathered� some more, some less.
|
17. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 so H3651 , and gathered H3950 , some more H7235 , some less H4591 .
|
|
18. When they measured with an omer, the one who gathered much had nothing left over, and the one who gathered little lacked nothing; each one had gathered what he could eat.
|
18. And when they did mete H4058 it with an omer H6016 , he that gathered much H7235 had nothing over H5736 H3808 , and he that gathered little H4591 had no H3808 lack H2637 ; they gathered H3950 every man H376 according to H6310 his eating H400 .
|
|
19. Moses said to them, "No one is to keep any of it until morning."
|
19. And Moses H4872 said H559 , Let no H408 man H376 leave H3498 of H4480 it till H5704 the morning H1242 .
|
|
20. But they did not listen to Moses; some kept part of it until morning, and it was full of worms and began to stink, and Moses was angry with them.
|
20. Notwithstanding they hearkened H8085 not H3808 unto H413 Moses H4872 ; but some H376 of them left H3498 of H4480 it until H5704 the morning H1242 , and it bred H7311 worms H8438 , and stank H887 : and Moses H4872 was wroth H7107 with H5921 them.
|
|
21. So they gathered it each morning, each person according to what he could eat, and when the sun got hot, it would melt.
|
21. And they gathered H3950 it every morning H1242 H1242 , every man H376 according to H6310 his eating H400 : and when the sun H8121 waxed hot H2552 , it melted H4549 .
|
|
22. And on the sixth day they gathered twice as much food, two omers per person; and all the leaders of the community came and told Moses.
|
22. And it came to pass H1961 , that on the sixth H8345 day H3117 they gathered H3950 twice as much H4932 bread H3899 , two H8147 omers H6016 for one H259 man : and all H3605 the rulers H5387 of the congregation H5712 came H935 and told H5046 Moses H4872 .
|
|
23. He said to them, "This is what the LORD has said: 'Tomorrow is a time of cessation from work, a holy Sabbath to the LORD. Whatever you want to bake, bake today; whatever you want to boil, boil today; whatever is left put aside for yourselves to be kept until morning.'"
|
23. And he said H559 unto H413 them, This H1931 is that which H834 the LORD H3068 hath said H1696 , Tomorrow H4279 is the rest H7677 of the holy H6944 sabbath H7676 unto the LORD H3068 : bake H644 that H853 which H834 ye will bake H644 today , and seethe H1310 that H834 ye will seethe H1310 ; and that which H3605 remaineth over H5736 lay up H5117 for you to be kept H4931 until H5704 the morning H1242 .
|
|
24. So they put it aside until the morning, just as Moses had commanded, and it did not stink, nor were there any worms in it.
|
24. And they laid it up H5117 H853 till H5704 the morning H1242 , as H834 Moses H4872 bade H6680 : and it did not H3808 stink H887 , neither H3808 was H1961 there any worm H7415 therein.
|
|
25. Moses said, "Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath to the LORD; today you will not find it in the area.
|
25. And Moses H4872 said H559 , Eat H398 that today H3117 ; for H3588 today H3117 is a sabbath H7676 unto the LORD H3068 : today H3117 ye shall not H3808 find H4672 it in the field H7704 .
|
|
26. Six days you will gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will not be any."
|
26. Six H8337 days H3117 ye shall gather H3950 it ; but on the seventh H7637 day H3117 , which is the sabbath H7676 , in it there shall be H1961 none H3808 .
|
|
27. On the seventh day some of the people went out to gather it, but they found nothing.
|
27. And it came to pass H1961 , that there went out H3318 some of H4480 the people H5971 on the seventh H7637 day H3117 for to gather H3950 , and they found H4672 none H3808 .
|
|
28. So the LORD said to Moses, "How long do you refuse to obey my commandments and my instructions?
|
28. And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses H4872 , How long H5704 H575 refuse H3985 ye to keep H8104 my commandments H4687 and my laws H8451 ?
|
|
29. See, because the LORD has given you the Sabbath, that is why he is giving you food for two days on the sixth day. Each of you stay where you are; let no one go out of his place on the seventh day."
|
29. See H7200 , for H3588 that the LORD H3068 hath given H5414 you the sabbath H7676 , therefore H5921 H3651 he H1931 giveth H5414 you on the sixth H8345 day H3117 the bread H3899 of two days H3117 ; abide H3427 ye every man H376 in his place H8478 , let no H408 man H376 go out H3318 of his place H4480 H4725 on the seventh H7637 day H3117 .
|
|
30. So the people rested on the seventh day.
|
30. So the people H5971 rested H7673 on the seventh H7637 day H3117 .
|
|
31. The house of Israel called its name "manna." It was like coriander seed and was white, and it tasted like wafers with honey.
|
31. And the house H1004 of Israel H3478 called H7121 H853 the name H8034 thereof Manna H4478 : and it H1931 was like coriander H1407 seed H2233 , white H3836 ; and the taste H2940 of it was like wafers H6838 made with honey H1706 .
|
|
32. Moses said, "This is what the LORD has commanded: 'Fill an omer with it to be kept for generations to come, so that they may see the food I fed you in the desert when I brought you out from the land of Egypt.'"
|
32. And Moses H4872 said H559 , This H2088 is the thing H1697 which H834 the LORD H3068 commandeth H6680 , Fill H4393 an omer H6016 of H4480 it to be kept H4931 for your generations H1755 ; that H4616 they may see H7200 H853 the bread H3899 wherewith H834 I have fed H398 you in the wilderness H4057 , when I brought you forth H3318 H853 from the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
33. Moses said to Aaron, "Take a jar and put in it an omer full of manna, and place it before the LORD to be kept for generations to come."
|
33. And Moses H4872 said H559 unto H413 Aaron H175 , Take H3947 a H259 pot H6803 , and put H5414 an omer H6016 full H4393 of manna H4478 therein H8033 , and lay it up H5117 H853 before H6440 the LORD H3068 , to be kept H4931 for your generations H1755 .
|
|
34. Just as the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron placed it before the Testimony for safekeeping.
|
34. As H834 the LORD H3068 commanded H6680 H413 Moses H4872 , so Aaron H175 laid it up H5117 before H6440 the Testimony H5715 , to be kept H4931 .
|
|
35. Now the Israelites ate manna forty years, until they came to a land that was inhabited; they ate manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan.
|
35. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did eat H398 H853 manna H4478 forty H705 years H8141 , until H5704 they came H935 to H413 a land H776 inhabited H3427 ; they did eat H398 H853 manna H4478 , until H5704 they came H935 unto H413 the borders H7097 of the land H776 of Canaan H3667 .
|
|
36. (Now an omer is one tenth of an ephah.)
|
36. Now an omer H6016 is the tenth H6224 part of an ephah H374 .
