Exodo 16
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Ang Manna at mga Pugo
16 Mula sa Elim, nagpatuloy sa paglalakbay ang mga Israelita, at ikalabing limang araw ng ikalawang buwan mula ng sila'y lumabas sa Egipto nang sila'y dumating sa ilang ng Sin, sa pagitan ng Elim at Sinai. 2 Ang mga Israelita'y nagreklamo kina Moises at Aaron. 3 Sinabi nila, “Mabuti pa sana'y pinatay na kami ni Yahweh sa Egipto. Doon, nakakakain kami ng karne at tinapay hanggang gusto namin. Dito naman sa ilang na pinagdalhan ninyo sa amin, mamamatay kami sa gutom.”
4 Sinabi(A) ni Yahweh kay Moises, “Pauulanan ko kayo ng tinapay mula sa langit. Araw-araw, palalabasin mo ng bahay ang mga tao para mamulot ng kakainin nila sa maghapon. Sa pamamagitan nito'y susubukin ko kung susunod sila sa aking mga tagubilin. 5 Tuwing ikaanim na araw, doble sa karaniwan ang kanilang pupulutin at ihahanda.”
6 Pagkatapos ng pakikipag-usap nila kay Yahweh, sinabi nina Moises at Aaron sa mga Israelita, “Mamayang gabi, mapapatunayan ninyo na si Yahweh ang naglabas sa inyo sa Egipto. 7 At bukas ng umaga, makikita ninyo ang kanyang kapangyarihan. Narinig niya ang inyong reklamo laban sa kanya. Laban sa kanya, sapagkat tuwing gagawin ninyo ito ay sa kanya kayo nagrereklamo, hindi sa amin.” 8 Idinugtong pa ni Moises, “Mamayang gabi, bibigyan niya kayo ng karne. Bukas ng umaga ay tinapay ang ibibigay niya sa inyo hanggang gusto ninyo. Iyan ang sagot niya sa inyo. Ang totoo, anumang reklamo ninyo ay laban sa kanya, hindi sa amin, sapagkat sino ba kami para pagreklamuhan ninyo?”
9 Sinabi ni Moises kay Aaron, “Paharapin mo ang buong bayan kay Yahweh sapagkat narinig niya ang kanilang reklamo.” 10 Nang sabihin ito ni Aaron, ang buong bayan ay humarap kay Yahweh, sa gawi ng disyerto, at bigla na lamang nilang nakita sa ulap ang kaluwalhatian ni Yahweh. 11 Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises, 12 “Narinig ko ang reklamo ng mga Israelita. Sabihin mo sa kanila na sa pagtatakip-silim, bibigyan ko sila ng karne. Sa umaga, bibigyan ko sila ng tinapay hanggang gusto nila. Sa gayo'y malalaman nilang ako si Yahweh, ang kanilang Diyos.”
13 Nang magtakip-silim, dumagsa sa kampo ang napakaraming pugo. Kinaumagahan naman ay makapal na makapal ang hamog sa paligid ng kampo. 14 Nang mapawi ang hamog, nakakita sila sa lupa ng maliliit at maninipis na mga bagay na parang pinipig. 15 Hindi(B) nila alam kung ano iyon, kaya nagtanungan sila, “Ano ito?”
Sinabi ni Moises, “Iyan ang tinapay na bigay sa inyo ni Yahweh. 16 At ito ang utos niya tungkol diyan: Bawat isa ay kukuha ng kailangan niya at ng mga kasama niya sa tolda, kalahating salop bawat isang tao.”
17 Namulot nga ang mga Israelita—may kumuha ng marami at may kumuha ng kaunti. 18 Ngunit(C) nang takalin nila ang kanilang nakuha, ang kumuha ng marami ay hindi lumabis, at ang kumuha ng kaunti ay hindi naman kinulang. Sapat lang sa kanila ang kanilang nakuha. 19 Sinabi sa kanila ni Moises, “Huwag kayong magtitira para sa kinabukasan.” 20 Ngunit ang ilan sa kanila'y hindi nakinig kay Moises. Kinabukasan, inuod at bumaho ang itinira nila. Kaya nagalit sa kanila si Moises. 21 Mula noon, tuwing umaga'y namumulot sila nang ayon sa kanilang kailangan. Pag-init ng araw, ito'y natutunaw.
22 Nang ikaanim na araw, doble ang kanilang pinulot, isang salop para sa isang tao. Nagpunta kay Moises ang mga pinuno ng bayan at sinabi ang nangyari. 23 Ipinaliwanag(D) naman ni Moises sa kanila, “Ito ang utos ni Yahweh: ‘Bukas ay Araw ng Pamamahinga, araw na nakatalaga kay Yahweh. Lutuin na ninyo ngayon ang gusto ninyong lutuin. Ang hindi mauubos ay itira ninyo para bukas.’” 24 Tulad ng sinabi sa kanila ni Moises, nagtira sila para sa kinabukasan, at iyo'y hindi nasira at hindi inuod. 25 At sinabi ni Moises, “Ito ang kakainin ninyo ngayon. Ngayon ay Araw ng Pamamahinga; wala kayong makukuha niyan ngayon. 26 Anim na araw kayong mamumulot niyan; ngunit sa ikapito, sa Araw ng Pamamahinga, ay wala kayong makukuha.”
27 Ngunit nang ikapitong araw ay mayroon pa ring mga lumabas sa bukid para mamulot ngunit wala silang nakuha. 28 Kaya sinabi ni Yahweh kay Moises, “Hanggang kailan pa kayo susuway sa aking mga utos? 29 Tandaan ninyo na akong si Yahweh ang nagtakda sa inyo ng Araw ng Pamamahinga. Kaya, tuwing ikaanim na araw ay binibigyan ko kayo ng pagkain para sa dalawang araw. Sa ikapitong araw ay wala nang lalabas.” 30 At mula noon, nagpapahinga na lamang sila tuwing ikapitong araw.
31 Manna[a] (E) ang itinawag ng mga Israelita sa pagkaing pinupulot nila. Ito'y parang buto ng kulantro, maputi at lasang galyetas na minasa sa pulot. 32 Sinabi sa kanila ni Moises, “Ito ang utos ni Yahweh: ‘Kumuha kayo ng kalahating salop ng manna. Itatago ninyo ito upang makita ng inyong magiging mga anak at mga apo ang pagkaing ibinigay ko sa inyo nang ilabas ko kayo sa Egipto.’” 33 Sinabi(F) naman ni Moises kay Aaron, “Kumuha ka ng isang banga at lagyan mo ng kalahating salop na manna. Pagkatapos, ialay mo sa harapan ni Yahweh upang itago para sa ating magiging mga anak at mga apo.” 34 Gaya ng iniutos ni Yahweh kay Moises, inilagay ni Aaron sa loob ng Kaban ng Tipan ang palayok ng manna. 35 Manna(G) ang kinain ng mga Israelita sa loob ng apatnapung taon, hanggang sa dumating sila sa Canaan. (36 Ang isang salop ay katumbas ng higit sa apat na litro.)

Exodus 16
English Standard Version
Bread from Heaven
16 They (A)set out from Elim, and all the congregation of the people of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they had departed from the land of Egypt. 2 And the whole congregation of the people of Israel (B)grumbled against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness, 3 and the people of Israel said to them, (C)“Would that we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, (D)when we sat by the meat pots and ate bread to the full, for you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger.”
4 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I am about to rain (E)bread from heaven for you, and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may (F)test them, whether they will walk in my law or not. 5 On the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, (G)it will be twice as much as they gather daily.” 6 So Moses and Aaron said to all the people of Israel, (H)“At evening (I)you shall know that it was the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt, 7 and in the morning you shall see the (J)glory of the Lord, because he has heard your grumbling against the Lord. For (K)what are we, that you grumble against us?” 8 And Moses said, “When the Lord gives you in the evening meat to eat and in the morning bread to the full, because the Lord has heard your grumbling that you grumble against him—(L)what are we? Your grumbling is not (M)against us but against the Lord.”
9 Then Moses (N)said to Aaron, “Say to the whole congregation of the people of Israel, (O)‘Come near before the Lord, for he has heard your grumbling.’” 10 And as soon as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the people of Israel, they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the (P)glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud. 11 And the Lord said to Moses, 12 “I (Q)have heard the grumbling of the people of Israel. Say to them, ‘At (R)twilight you shall eat meat, and (S)in the morning you shall be filled with bread. Then you shall know that I am the Lord your God.’”
13 In the evening (T)quail came up and covered the camp, and in the morning (U)dew lay around the camp. 14 And when the dew had gone up, there was on the face of the wilderness a fine, flake-like thing, fine as frost on the ground. 15 When the people of Israel saw it, they said to one another, (V)“What is it?”[a] For they (W)did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, (X)“It is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat. 16 This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Gather of it, each one of you, as much as he can eat. You shall each take an (Y)omer,[b] according to the number of the persons that each of you has in his tent.’” 17 And the people of Israel did so. They gathered, some more, some less. 18 But when they measured it with an omer, (Z)whoever gathered much had nothing left over, and whoever gathered little had no lack. Each of them gathered as much as he could eat. 19 And Moses said to them, “Let no one leave any of it over till the morning.” 20 But they did not listen to Moses. Some left part of it till the morning, and (AA)it bred worms and stank. And Moses was angry with them. 21 Morning by morning they gathered it, each as much as he could eat; but when the sun grew hot, it melted.
22 On (AB)the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers each. And when all the leaders of the congregation came and told Moses, 23 he said to them, “This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Tomorrow is a day of (AC)solemn rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord; bake what you will bake and boil what you will boil, and all that is left over lay aside to be kept till the morning.’” 24 So they laid it aside till the morning, as Moses commanded them, and (AD)it did not stink, and there were no worms in it. 25 Moses said, “Eat it today, for (AE)today is a Sabbath to the Lord; today you will not find it in the field. 26 Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, which is a Sabbath, there will be none.”
27 On the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they found none. 28 And the Lord said to Moses, (AF)“How long will you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws? 29 See! The Lord has given you the Sabbath; therefore on the sixth day he gives you bread for two days. Remain each of you in his place; let no one go out of his place on the seventh day.” 30 So the people (AG)rested on the seventh day.
31 Now the house of Israel called its name (AH)manna. It was (AI)like coriander seed, white, and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey. 32 Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Let an omer of it be kept throughout your generations, so that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.’” 33 And Moses said to Aaron, “Take a (AJ)jar, and put an omer of manna in it, and place it before the Lord to be kept throughout your generations.” 34 As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron placed it before (AK)the testimony to be kept. 35 The people of Israel (AL)ate the manna forty years, till they came to a habitable land. They ate the manna till (AM)they came to the border of the land of Canaan. 36 (An omer is (AN)the tenth part of an ephah.)[c]

Murren des Volkes in der Wüste Sin, Wachteln und Manna
16 Darnach zog die ganze Gemeinde der Kinder Israel von Elim weg in die Wüste Sin, die zwischen Elim und Sinai liegt, am fünfzehnten Tag des zweiten Monats, nachdem sie aus Ägypten gezogen waren. 2 Und die ganze Gemeinde der Kinder Israel murrte wider Mose und Aaron in der Wüste. 3 Und die Kinder Israel sprachen zu ihnen: Wären wir doch durch des Herrn Hand in Ägypten gestorben, als wir bei den Fleischtöpfen saßen und Brot die Fülle zu essen hatten. Denn ihr habt uns darum in diese Wüste ausgeführt, daß ihr diese ganze Gemeinde Hungers sterben lasst!
4 Da sprach der Herr zu Mose: Siehe, ich will euch Brot vom Himmel regnen lassen; dann soll das Volk hinausgehen und täglich sammeln, was es bedarf, damit ich erfahre, ob es in meinem Gesetze wandeln wird oder nicht. 5 Am sechsten Tag aber sollen sie zubereiten, was sie eingebracht haben, und zwar doppelt so viel als sie täglich sammeln.
6 Da sprachen Mose und Aaron zu allen Kindern Israel: Am Abend sollt ihr erfahren, daß euch der Herr aus Ägypten geführt hat, 7 und am Morgen werdet ihr des Herrn Herrlichkeit sehen, denn er hat euer Murren wider den Herrn gehört. Aber was sind wir, daß ihr wider uns murrt? 8 Weiter sprach Mose: Der Herr wird euch am Abend Fleisch zu essen geben und am Morgen Brot die Fülle; denn er, der Herr, hat euer Murren gehört, womit ihr wider ihn gemurrt habt. Denn was sind wir? Euer Murren ist nicht wider uns, sondern wider den Herrn!
9 Und Mose sprach zu Aaron: Sage der ganzen Gemeinde der Kinder Israel: Kommt herzu vor den Herrn, denn er hat euer Murren gehört! 10 Und als Aaron zu der ganzen Gemeinde der Kinder Israel redete, wandten sie sich gegen die Wüste und siehe, die Herrlichkeit des Herrn erschien in einer Wolke. 11 Und der Herr sprach zu Mose: 12 Ich habe das Murren der Kinder Israel gehört. Sage ihnen: Um den Abend sollt ihr Fleisch zu essen haben und am Morgen mit Brot gesättigt werden; so sollt ihr erfahren, daß ich der Herr, euer Gott bin!
13 Als es nun Abend war, kamen Wachteln herauf und bedeckten das Lager, und am Morgen lag der Tau um das Lager her. 14 Und als der Tau, der da lag, verschwunden war, siehe, da lag etwas in der Wüste, rund und klein, so fein wie der Reif auf der Erde. 15 Und als es die Kinder Israel sahen, sprachen sie untereinander: Was ist das? denn sie wußten nicht, was es war. Mose aber sprach zu ihnen: Es ist das Brot, das euch der Herr zu essen gegeben hat! 16 Das ist aber der Befehl, welchen der Herr gegeben hat: Ein jeder sammle davon, soviel er essen mag, einen Gomer für den Kopf, nach der Zahl eurer Seelen; ein jeder nehme für die, die in seiner Hütte sind.
17 Und die Kinder Israel taten so und sammelten, einer viel, der andere wenig. 18 Aber als man es mit dem Gomer maß, hatte der, welcher viel gesammelt hatte, keinen Überfluß, und dem, der wenig gesammelt hatte, mangelte nichts sondern ein jeder hatte für sich gesammelt, soviel er essen mochte. 19 Und Mose sprach zu ihnen: Niemand lasse etwas davon übrigbleiben bis zum andern Morgen! 20 Aber sie gehorchten Mose nicht; denn etliche ließen davon übrigbleiben bis zum Morgen. Da wuchsen Würmer darin, und es wurde stinkend. Und Mose wurde zornig über sie. 21 Sie sammelten aber von demselben alle Morgen für sich, soviel ein jeder essen mochte; wenn aber die Sonne heiß schien, zerschmolz es.
22 Und am sechsten Tage sammelten sie doppelt so viel Brot, zwei Gomer für jede Person. Da kamen alle Obersten der Gemeinde und verkündigten es Mose. 23 Und er sprach zu ihnen: Das ist's, was der Herr gesagt hat: Morgen ist der Sabbat der heiligen Ruhe des Herrn; was ihr backen wollt, das backt, und was ihr kochen wollt, das kocht; was aber übrig ist, das hebt auf, damit es bis morgen erhalten bleibe! 24 Und sie ließen es bis an den Morgen bleiben, wie Mose geboten hatte; da wurde es nicht stinkend und war auch kein Wurm darin. 25 Da sprach Mose: Esst das heute, denn heute ist der Sabbat des Herrn; ihr werdet es heute nicht auf dem Feld finden. 26 Sechs Tage sollt ihr es sammeln, aber am siebenten Tag ist der Sabbat, da wird keines zu finden sein.
27 Es begab sich aber am siebenten Tag, daß etliche vom Volk hinausgingen zu sammeln und nichts fanden. 28 Da sprach der Herr zu Mose: Wie lange weigert ihr euch, meine Gebote und meine Satzungen zu halten? 29 Seht, der Herr hat euch den Sabbat gegeben; darum gibt er euch am sechsten Tag für zwei Tage Brot; so bleibe nun jeder an seinem Platz und niemand gehe am siebenten Tag heraus von seinem Ort!
30 Also feierte das Volk am siebenten Tag.
31 Und das Haus Israel nannte es Manna[a]. Es war aber wie Koriandersamen, weiß, und hatte einen Geschmack wie Honigkuchen.
32 Und Mose sprach: Das ist's, was der Herr geboten hat: Fülle einen Gomer davon und behalte ihn auf für eure Nachkommen, daß man das Brot sehe, womit ich euch in der Wüste gespeist habe, als ich euch aus Ägypten führte! 33 Und Mose sprach zu Aaron: Nimm ein Gefäß und gib einen Gomer voll Manna hinein und stelle es vor den Herrn, zur Aufbewahrung für eure Nachkommen! 34 Wie der Herr dem Mose geboten hatte, also stellte es Aaron dort vor das Zeugnis, zur Aufbewahrung.
35 Und die Kinder Israel aßen das Manna vierzig Jahre lang, bis sie zu dem Land kamen, darin sie wohnen sollten; bis sie an die Grenze Kanaans kamen, aßen sie das Manna.
36 Ein Gomer[b] ist der zehnte Teil eines Epha.
