Exodus 16:11-15

« Exodus 15Exodus 16Exodus 17 »

11 And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 12 “^aI have heard the grumblings of the sons of Israel; speak to them, saying, ‘¹At twilight you shall eat ²meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread, so that ^byou shall know that I am Yahweh your God.’”
13 So it happened at evening that ^athe quails came up and covered the camp, and in the morning ^bthere was a layer of dew around the camp. 14 ^aThen the layer of dew ¹evaporated, and behold, on the ²surface of the wilderness ^bthere was a fine flake-like thing, fine as the frost on the ground. 15 And the sons of Israel saw it and said to one another, “¹What is it?” For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, “^aIt is the bread which Yahweh has given you to eat.

Numbers 11:4-9

« Num 10Num 11Num 12 »

4 And the ^arabble who were among them ¹had greedy desires; and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, “^bWho will give us ²meat to eat? 5 ^aWe remember the fish which we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic, 6 but now ^aour ¹appetite is dried up. There is nothing at all ²to look at except this manna.”
7 ^aNow the manna was like coriander seed, and its appearance like that of ^bbdellium. 8 The people would go about and gather it and grind it ¹between two millstones or beat it in the mortar, and boil it in the pot and make cakes with it; and its taste was as the taste of ²cakes baked with oil. 9 ^aAnd when the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna would fall ¹with it.
