Exodus 16:22-26

New American Standard Bible

The Sabbath

^22 (A)Now on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, ^[a]two omers for each one. When all the ^(B)leaders of the congregation came and told Moses, ²³ then he said to them, “This is what the Lord ^[b]meant: ^(C)Tomorrow is a Sabbath observance, a holy Sabbath to the Lord. Bake what you will bake and boil what you will boil, and ^(D)all that is left over ^[c]put aside to be kept until morning.” ²⁴ So they put it aside until morning, as Moses had ordered, and ^(E)it did not stink nor was there a maggot in it. ²⁵ Then Moses said, “Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath to the Lord; today you will not find it in the field. ^26 (F)Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will be ^[d]none.”
