11 The Lord said to Moses,
12 “I have heard the complaints of the Israelites. Tell them that at twilight they will have meat to eat, and in the morning they will have all the bread they want. Then they will know that I, the Lord, am their God.”
13 In the evening a large flock of quails flew in, enough to cover the camp, and in the morning there was dew all round the camp.
14 When the dew evaporated, there was something thin and flaky on the surface of the desert. It was as delicate as frost.
15 When the Israelites saw it, they didn't know what it was and asked each other, “What is it?”Moses said to them, “This is the food that the Lord has given you to eat.
16 The Lord has commanded that each of you is to gather as much of it as he needs, two litres for each member of his household.”
17 The Israelites did this, some gathering more, others less.
