出埃及記 16
1 以色列全會眾從以琳起行，在出埃及後第二個月十五日到了以琳和西奈中間、汛的曠野。
Afterward all the Congregation of the children of Israel departed from Elim, and came to the wildernes of Sin, (which is betweene Elim and Sinai) the fiftenth day of the second moneth after their departing out of ye land of Egypt.
2 以色列全會眾在曠野向摩西、亞倫發怨言，
And the whole Congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wildernesse.
3 說：「巴不得我們早死在埃及地、耶和華的手下；那時我們坐在肉鍋旁邊，吃得飽足。你們將我們領出來，到這曠野，是要叫這全會眾都餓死啊！」
For the children of Israel sayde to them, Oh that we had dyed by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when wee sate by the flesh pots, when wee ate bread our bellies full: for yee haue brought vs out into this wildernesse, to kill this whole company with famine.
4 耶和華對摩西說：「我要將糧食從天降給你們。百姓可以出去，每天收每天的分，我好試驗他們遵不遵我的法度。
Then sayd the Lord vnto Moses, Behold, I wil cause bread to rayne from heauen to you, and the people shall goe out, and gather that that is sufficient for euery day, that I may proue them, whether they wil walke in my Law or no.
5 到第六天，他們要把所收進來的預備好了，比每天所收的多一倍。」
But the sixt daye they shall prepare that, which they shall bring home, and it shalbe twise as much as they gather dayly.
6 摩西、亞倫對以色列眾人說：「到了晚上，你們要知道是耶和華將你們從埃及地領出來的。
Then Moses and Aaron sayde vnto all the children of Israel, At euen ye shall know, that the Lord brought you out of the land of Egypt:
7 早晨，你們要看見耶和華的榮耀，因為耶和華聽見你們向他所發的怨言了。我們算甚麼，你們竟向我們發怨言呢？」
And in the morning ye shall see the glorie of the Lord: for he hath heard your grudgings against the Lord: and what are we that ye haue murmured against vs?
8 摩西又說：「耶和華晚上必給你們肉吃，早晨必給你們食物得飽；因為你們向耶和華發的怨言，他都聽見了。我們算甚麼，你們的怨言不是向我們發的，乃是向耶和華發的。」
Againe Moses sayd, At euen shall the Lord giue you flesh to eate, and in the morning your fil of bread: for the Lord hath heard your murmurings, which ye murmure against him: for what are we? your murmurings are not against vs, but against the Lord.
9 摩西對亞倫說：「你告訴以色列全會眾說：『你們就近耶和華面前，因為他已經聽見你們的怨言了。』」
And Moses sayd to Aaron, Say vnto all the Congregation of the children of Israel, Draw neere before the Lord: for he hath heard your murmurings.
10 亞倫正對以色列全會眾說話的時候，他們向曠野觀看，不料，耶和華的榮光在雲中顯現。
Now as Aaron spake vnto the whole Congregation of the children of Israel, they looked toward the wildernesse, and beholde, the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloude.
11 耶和華曉諭摩西說：
(For the Lord had spoken vnto Moses, saying,
12 「我已經聽見以色列人的怨言。你告訴他們說：『到黃昏的時候，你們要吃肉，早晨必有食物得飽，你們就知道我是耶和華－你們的上帝。』」
I haue heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: tell them therefore, and say, At euen ye shall eate flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lord your God)
13 到了晚上，有鵪鶉飛來，遮滿了營；早晨在營四圍的地上有露水。
And so at euen the quailes came and couered the campe: and in the morning the dewe lay round about the hoste.
14 露水上升之後，不料，野地面上有如白霜的小圓物。
And when the dewe that was fallen was ascended, beholde, a small round thing was vpon the face of the wildernes, small as the hoare frost on the earth.
15 以色列人看見，不知道是甚麼，就彼此對問說：「這是甚麼呢？」摩西對他們說：「這就是耶和華給你們吃的食物。
And when the children of Israel sawe it, they sayde one to another, It is MAN, for they wist not what it was. And Moses sayd vnto them, This is the breade which the Lord hath giuen you to eate.
16 耶和華所吩咐的是這樣：你們要按着各人的飯量，為帳棚裏的人，按着人數收起來，各拿一俄梅珥。」
This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded: gather of it euery man according to his eating an Omer for a man according to the number of your persons: euery man shall take for them which are in his tent.
17 以色列人就這樣行；有多收的，有少收的。
And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some lesse.
18 及至用俄梅珥量一量，多收的也沒有餘，少收的也沒有缺；各人按着自己的飯量收取。
And when they did measure it with an Omer, hee that had gathered much, had nothing ouer, and he that had gathered litle, had no lacke: so euery man gathered according to his eating.
19 摩西對他們說：「所收的，不許甚麼人留到早晨。」
Moses then said vnto them, Let no man reserue thereof till morning.
20 然而他們不聽摩西的話，內中有留到早晨的，就生蟲變臭了；摩西便向他們發怒。
Notwithstanding they obeyed not Moses: but some of them reserued of it till morning, and it was full of wormes, and stanke: therefore Moses was angrie with them.
21 他們每日早晨，按着各人的飯量收取，日頭一發熱，就消化了。
And they gathered it euery morning, euery man according to his eating: for when the heate of the sunne came, it was melted.
22 到第六天，他們收了雙倍的食物，每人兩俄梅珥。會眾的官長來告訴摩西；
And the sixt day they gathered twise so much bread, two Omers for one man: then all the rulers of the Congregation came and told Moses.
23 摩西對他們說：「耶和華這樣說：『明天是聖安息日，是向耶和華守的聖安息日。你們要烤的就烤了，要煮的就煮了，所剩下的都留到早晨。』」
And he answered them, This is that, which the Lord hath sayde, To morowe is the rest of the holy Sabbath vnto the Lord: bake that to day which ye wil bake, and seethe that which ye wil seethe, and all that remaineth, lay it vp to be kept till the morning for you.
24 他們就照摩西的吩咐留到早晨，也不臭，裏頭也沒有蟲子。
And they laied it vp till the morning, as Moses bade, and it stanke not, neyther was there any worme therein.
25 摩西說：「你們今天吃這個吧！因為今天是向耶和華守的安息日；你們在田野必找不着了。
Then Moses sayde, Eate that to day: for to day is the Sabbath vnto the Lord: to day ye shall not finde it in the fielde.
26 六天可以收取，第七天乃是安息日，那一天必沒有了。」
Sixe dayes shall yee gather it, but in the seuenth day is the Sabbath: in it there shalbe none.
27 第七天，百姓中有人出去收，甚麼也找不着。
Notwithstanding, there went out some of the people in ye seuenth day for to gather, and they found none.
28 耶和華對摩西說：「你們不肯守我的誡命和律法，要到幾時呢？
And the Lord sayde vnto Moses, Howe long refuse yee to keepe my commandements, and my lawes?
29 你們看！耶和華既將安息日賜給你們，所以第六天他賜給你們兩天的食物，第七天各人要住在自己的地方，不許甚麼人出去。」
Beholde, howe the Lord hath giuen you the Sabbath: therefore he giueth you the sixt day bread for two dayes: tary therefore euery man in his place: let no man goe out of his place the seuenth day.
30 於是百姓第七天安息了。
So the people rested the seuenth day.
31 這食物，以色列家叫嗎哪；樣子像芫荽子，顏色是白的，滋味如同攙蜜的薄餅。
And the house of Israel called the name of it, MAN. and it was like to coriander seede, but white: and the taste of it was like vnto wafers made with hony.
32 摩西說：「耶和華所吩咐的是這樣：『要將一滿俄梅珥嗎哪留到世世代代，使後人可以看見我當日將你們領出埃及地，在曠野所給你們吃的食物。』」
And Moses said, This is that which the Lord hath commanded, Fill an Omer of it, to keepe it for your posteritie: that they may see the bread wherewith I haue fed you in wildernesse, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.
33 摩西對亞倫說：「你拿一個罐子，盛一滿俄梅珥嗎哪，存在耶和華面前，要留到世世代代。」
Moses also said to Aaron, Take a pot and put an Omer full of MAN therein, and set it before the Lord to be kept for your posteritie.
34 耶和華怎麼吩咐摩西，亞倫就怎麼行，把嗎哪放在法櫃前存留。
As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron laied it vp before the Testimonie to be kept.
35 以色列人吃嗎哪共四十年，直到進了有人居住之地，就是迦南的境界。（
And the children of Israel did eate MAN fourtie yeres, vntill they came vnto a land inhabited: they did eate MAN vntill they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.
36 俄梅珥就是伊法十分之一。）
The Omer is the tenth part of the Ephah.
