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 (A)omer,[a] 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, (B)whoever gathered much had nothing left over, and whoever gathered little had no lack. Each of them gathered as much as he could eat.
