13 In the evening a large flock of quails flew in, enough to cover the camp, and in the morning there was dew all around 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 quarts for each member of his household.”
17 The Israelites did this, some gathering more, others less.
18 When they measured it, those who gathered much did not have too much, and those who gathered less did not have too little. Each had gathered just what he needed.
19 Moses said to them, “No one is to keep any of it for tomorrow.”
