Exodus 16
1 And they journeyed from Elim, and the whole assembly of the children of Israel came into the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departure out of the land of Egypt.
Profectique sunt de Elim, et venit omnis multitudo filiorum Israel in desertum Sin, quod est inter Elim et Sinai: quintodecimo die mensis secundi, postquam egressi sunt de terra Aegypti.
2 And the whole assembly of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness.
Et murmuravit omnis congregatio filiorum Israel contra Moysen et Aaron in solitudine.
3 And the children of Israel said to them, Would that we had died by the hand of Jehovah in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-pots, when we ate bread to the full; for ye have brought us out into this wilderness, to kill this whole congregation with hunger!
Dixeruntque filii Israel ad eos: Utinam mortui essemus per manum Domini in Terra Aegypti, quando sedebamus super ollas carnium, et comedebamus panem in saturitate: cur induxistis nos in desertum istud, ut occideretis omnem multitudinem fame?
4 Then said Jehovah to Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather the daily need on its day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or not.
Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: Ecce, ego pluam vobis panes de caelo: egrediatur populus, et colligat quae sufficiunt per singulos dies: ut tentem eum utrum ambulet in lege mea, an non.
5 And it shall come to pass on the sixth day, that they shall prepare what they have brought in; and it shall be twice as much as they shall gather daily.
Die autem sexto parent quod inferant: et sit duplum quam colligere solebant per singulos dies.
6 And Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, In the evening, then shall ye know that Jehovah has brought you out from the land of Egypt;
Dixeruntque Moyses et Aaron ad omnes filios Israel: Vespere scietis quod Dominus eduxerit vos de terra Aegypti:
7 and in the morning, then shall ye see the glory of Jehovah; for he has heard your murmurings against Jehovah; — and what are we, that ye murmur against us?
et mane videbitis gloriam Domini: audivi enim murmur vestrum contra Dominum: nos vero quid sumus, quia mussitastis contra nos?
8 And Moses said, When Jehovah gives you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for Jehovah hears your murmurings which ye murmur against him...and what [are] we? your murmurings are not against us, but against Jehovah.
Et ait Moyses: Dabit vobis Dominus vespere carnes edere, et mane panes in saturitate: eo quod audierit murmurationes vestras quibus murmurati estis contra eum, nos enim quid sumus? nec contra nos est murmur vestrum, sed contra Dominum.
9 And Moses spoke to Aaron, Say to all the assembly of the children of Israel, Come near into the presence of Jehovah; for he has heard your murmurings.
Dixit quoque Moyses ad Aaron: Dic universae congregationi filiorum Israel: Accedite coram Domino: audivit enim murmur vestrum.
10 And it came to pass, when Aaron spoke to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, that they turned toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of Jehovah appeared in the cloud.
Cumque loqueretur Aaron ad omnem coetum filiorum Israel, respexerunt ad solitudinem: et ecce gloria Domini apparuit in nube.
11 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Locutus est autem Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
12 I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak to them, saying, Between the two evenings ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah your God.
Audivi murmurationes filiorum Israel, loquere ad eos: Vespere comedetis carnes, et mane saturabimini panibus: scietisque quod ego sum Dominus Deus vester.
13 And it came to pass in the evening, that quails came up, and covered the camp; and in the morning the dew lay round the camp.
Factum est ergo vespere, et ascendens coturnix, cooperuit castra: mane quoque ros iacuit per circuitum castrorum.
14 And when the dew that lay [round it] was gone up, behold, on the face of the wilderness there was [something] fine, granular, fine as hoar-frost, on the ground.
Cumque operuisset superficiem terrae, apparuit in solitudine minutum, et quasi pilo tusum in similitudinem pruinae super terram.
15 And the children of Israel saw [it], and said one to another, What is it? for they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, This is the bread which Jehovah has given you to eat.
Quod cum vidissent filii Israel, dixerunt ad invicem: Manhu? quod significat: Quid est hoc? ignorabant enim quid esset. Quibus ait Moyses: Iste est panis, quem Dominus dedit vobis ad vescendum.
16 This is the thing which Jehovah has commanded: Gather of it every man according to what he can eat, an omer a poll, [according to] the number of your persons: ye shall take every man for those that are in his tent.
Hic est sermo, quem praecepit Dominus: Colligat unusquisque ex eo quantum sufficit ad vescendum: gomor per singula capita, iuxta numerum animarum vestrarum quae habitant in tabernaculo sic tolletis.
17 And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some much, some little.
Feceruntque ita filii Israel: et collegerunt, alius plus, alius minus.
18 And they measured with the omer: then he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little wanted nothing: they had gathered every man according to the measure of his eating.
Et mensi sunt ad mensuram gomor: nec qui plus collegerat, habuit amplius: nec qui minus paraverat, reperit minus: sed singuli iuxta id quod edere poterant, congregaverunt.
19 And Moses said to them, Let no man leave [any] of it until the morning.
Dixitque Moyses ad eos: Nullus relinquat ex eo in mane.
20 But they did not hearken to Moses; and some men left of it until the morning; then worms bred in it and it stank. And Moses was wroth with them.
Qui non audierunt eum, sed dimiserunt quidam ex eis usque mane, et scatere coepit vermibus, atque computruit. et iratus est contra eos Moyses.
21 And they gathered it every morning, every man as much as he could eat; and when the sun became hot, it melted.
Colligebant autem mane singuli, quantum sufficere poterat ad vescendum: cumque incaluisset sol, liquefiebat.
22 And it came to pass on the sixth day, that they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one; and all the princes of the assembly came and told Moses.
In die autem sexta collegerunt cibos duplices, id est, duo gomor per singulos homines: venerunt autem omnes principes multitudinis, et narraverunt Moysi.
23 And he said to them, This is what Jehovah has said: To-morrow is the rest, the holy sabbath, of Jehovah: bake what ye will bake, and cook what ye will cook; and lay up for yourselves all that remains over, to be kept for the morning.
Qui ait eis: Hoc est quod locutus est Dominus: Requies sabbati sanctificata est Domino cras. quodcumque operandum est, facite: et quae coquenda sunt coquite: quidquid autem reliquum fuerit, reponite usque in mane.
24 And they laid it up for the morning, as Moses had commanded; and it did not stink, neither was there any worm in it.
Feceruntque ita ut praeceperat Moyses, et non computruit, neque vermis inventus est in eo.
25 And Moses said, Eat it to-day; for to-day is sabbath to Jehovah: to-day ye shall not find it in the field.
Dixitque Moyses: Comedite illud hodie, quia sabbatum est Domini: non invenietur hodie in agro.
26 Six days shall ye gather it; but on the seventh day is sabbath: on it there shall be none.
Sex diebus colligite: in die autem septimo sabbatum est Domini, idcirco non invenietur.
27 And it came to pass on the seventh day that there went out [some] from the people to gather [it], and they found none.
Venitque septima dies: et egressi de populo ut colligerent, non invenerunt.
28 And Jehovah said to Moses, How long do ye refuse to keep my commandments and my laws?
Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: Usquequo non vultis custodire mandata mea, et legem meam?
29 See, for Jehovah hath given you the sabbath; therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread for two days. Abide every man in his place: let no man go from his place on the seventh day.
Videte quod Dominus dederit vobis sabbatum, et propter hoc die sexta tribuit vobis cibos duplices: maneat unusquisque apud semetipsum: nullus egrediatur de loco suo die septimo.
30 And the people rested on the seventh day.
Et sabbatizavit populus die septimo.
31 And the house of Israel called its name Manna; and it was like coriander-seed, white; and the taste of it was like cake with honey.
Appellavitque domus Israel nomen eius Man: quod erat quasi semen coriandri album, gustusque eius quasi similae cum melle.
32 And Moses said, This is the thing which Jehovah has commanded: Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread that I gave you to eat in the wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.
Dixit autem Moyses: Iste est sermo, quem praecepit Dominus: Imple gomor ex eo, et custodiatur in futuras retro generationes: ut noverint panem, quo alui vos in solitudine, quando educti estis de Terra Aegypti.
33 And Moses said to Aaron, Take a pot, and put in it an omer full of manna, and deposit it before Jehovah, to be kept for your generations.
Dixitque Moyses ad Aaron: Sume vas unum, et mitte ibi Man, quantum potest capere gomor: et repone coram Domino ad servandum in generationes vestras:
34 As Jehovah had commanded Moses, so Aaron deposited it before the Testimony, to be kept.
sicut praecepit Dominus Moysi. Posuitque illud Aaron in tabernaculo reservandum.
35 And the children of Israel ate the manna forty years, until they came into an inhabited land: they ate the manna until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.
Filii autem Israel comederunt Man quadraginta annis, donec venirent in terram habitabilem: hoc cibo aliti sunt, usquequo tangerent fines terrae Chanaan.
36 Now an omer is the tenth [part] of an ephah.
Gomor autem decima pars est ephi.
