Moses said to them, “It is the bread^(E) the Lord has given you to eat.

³¹ Now a wind went out from the Lord and drove quail^(A) in from the sea. It scattered them up to two cubits^[a] deep all around the camp, as far as a day’s walk in any direction.

³² All that day and night and all the next day the people went out and gathered quail. No one gathered less than ten homers.^[a] Then they spread them out all around the camp.
