Exodus 16:16-18
New International Version
16 This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Everyone is to gather as much as they need. Take an omer[a](A) for each person you have in your tent.’”
17 The Israelites did as they were told; some gathered much, some little. 18 And when they measured it by the omer, the one who gathered much did not have too much, and the one who gathered little did not have too little.(B) Everyone had gathered just as much as they needed.
