20 But they didn’t listen to Moses. Some kept part of it until morning, but it became infested with worms and stank. Moses got angry with them.
21 Every morning they gathered it, as much as each person could eat. But when the sun grew hot, it melted away.
22 On the sixth day the people collected twice as much food as usual, two omers per person. All the chiefs of the community came and told Moses.
23 He said to them, "This is what the Lord has said, ‘Tomorrow is a day of rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord. Bake what you want to bake and boil what you want to boil. But you can set aside and keep all the leftovers until the next morning.’"
24 So they set the leftovers aside until morning, as Moses had commanded. They didn’t stink or become infested with worms.
25 The next day Moses said, "Eat it today, because today is a Sabbath to the Lord. Today you won’t find it out in the field.
26 Six days you will gather it. But on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will be nothing to gather."
