Exodus 16

1 Na un mwet Israel nukewa mukuiyak liki acn Elim, ac ke len aksingoul limekosr in malem se akluo tukun elos illa liki Egypt, elos tuku nu ke yen mwesis Sin, su oan inmasrlon Elim ac Sinai.

And they journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the sons of Israel come to the wilderness of Sin, which [is] between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month of their going out from the land of Egypt.

2 Ingo yen mwesis elos nukewa torkaskas nu sel Moses ac Aaron

And all the congregation of the sons of Israel murmur against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;

3 ac fahk nu seltal, “LEUM GOD El funu unikuti na Egypt lukun wona. Kut lukun mutana mongo ikwa ac bread nwe ke na kut kihpi. A komtal uskutme nu in acn mwesis se inge ac oru kut in misa ke masrinsral.”

and the sons of Israel say to them, “Oh that we had died by the hand of YHWH in the land of Egypt, in our sitting by the flesh-pot, in our eating bread to satiety—for you have brought us out to this wilderness to put all this assembly to death with hunger.”

4 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Inge nga ac oru mwe mongo in kahkma inkusrao me nu suwos nukewa. Len nukewa mwet uh ac fah tufoki ac sifani ma fal nu ke len se. In ouiya se inge nga fah srikalos in liye lah elos ac oru oana ma nga sapkin.

And YHWH says to Moses, “Behold, I am raining bread from the heavens for you—and the people have gone out and gathered the matter of a day in its day—so that I try them whether they walk in My law or not;

5 Ke len se akonkosr elos in use sunun len luo ac akmolyela.”

and it has been on the sixth day, that they have prepared that which they bring in, and it has been double above that which they gather day [by] day.”

6 Ouinge Moses ac Aaron fahk nu sin mwet Israel nukewa, “Oyeku kowos fah etu lah LEUM GOD pa uskowosme liki Egypt.

And Moses says—Aaron also—to all the sons of Israel, “Evening—and you have known that YHWH has brought you out from the land of Egypt;

7 Lututang kowos ac liye kalem wolana su fahkak lah LEUM GOD El oasr yorosr. El lohng torkaskas lowos lainul — aok lainul ac tia lain kut, mweyen kut oru na ma El sapkin nu sesr uh.”

and morning—and you have seen the glory of YHWH, in His hearing your murmurings against YHWH, and what [are] we, that you murmur against us?”

8 Na Moses el fahk, “LEUM GOD pa ac sot ikwa nowos ke eku, ac lupan bread ma kowos enenu ke lotutang, tuh El lohng tari lupan torkaskas lowos lainul. Pacl kowos torkaskas lain kut uh, pwayeiya uh kowos torkaskas lain LEUM GOD.”

And Moses says, “In YHWH’s giving to you flesh to eat in the evening, and bread in the morning to satiety—in YHWH’s hearing your murmurings, which you are murmuring against Him, and what [are] we? Your murmurings [are] not against us, but against YHWH.”

9 Moses el fahk nu sel Aaron, “Fahk nu sin sruf nukewa lun mwet Israel elos in tuku ac tu ye mutun LEUM GOD, tuh El lohng tari torkaskas lalos.”

And Moses says to Aaron, “Say to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, Come near before YHWH, for He has heard your murmurings”;

10 Ke Aaron el kaskas nu sin sruf nukewa, elos ngetla nu yen mwesis, ac in kitin pacl ah na kalem wolana lun LEUM GOD sarmelik in pukunyeng se.

and it comes to pass, when Aaron is speaking to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, that they turn toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of YHWH is seen in the cloud.

11 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

12 “Nga lohng tari torkaskas lun mwet Israel. Fahk nu selos lah ke eku nukewa ac fah oasr ikwa nalos, ac ke lotutang nukewa elos ac fah eis lupan bread ma elos enenu. Na elos ac fah etu lah nga, LEUM GOD, pa God lalos.”

“I have heard the murmurings of the sons of Israel; speak to them, saying, Between the evenings you eat flesh, and in the morning you are satisfied [with] bread, and you have known that I [am] your God YHWH.”

13 Ke ekela sie u lulap ke won quail sohkma lucng me, ac afunla acn nukewa ke nien aktuktuk uh, ac ke lotutang aunfong uh nwakla acn mwet uh muta we.

And it comes to pass in the evening, that the quail comes up, and covers the camp, and in the morning there has been the lying of dew around the camp,

14 Ac ke aunfong uh wanginla, oasr ma na minini ac fisrasrsrasr se oan infohk uh yen mwesis uh. Arulana fisrasr in mokutkuti.

and the lying of the dew goes up, and behold, on the face of the wilderness [is] a thin, bare thing, thin as hoarfrost on the earth.

15 Ke mwet Israel elos liyauk, elos tiana etu lah mea se, ac elos asiyuki sie sin sie, “Mea se inge?” Moses el fahk nu selos, “Pa inge mwe mongo ma LEUM GOD El sot kowos in mongo kac.

And the sons of Israel see, and say to one another, “What [is] it?” For they have not known what it [is]; and Moses says to them, “It [is] the bread which YHWH has given to you for food.

16 LEUM GOD El sapkin tuh kais sie suwos in sifani lupan na ma el enenu — quart luo nu sin kais sie mwet ke sou se.”

This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded: Gather of it, each according to his eating, an omer for the counted head; and the number of your persons, take, each, for those in his tent.”

17 Mwet Israel elos oru ouinge — kutu sifani yohk, ac kutu srik.

And the sons of Israel do so, and they gather, he who is [gathering] much, and he who is [gathering] little;

18 Ke elos srikeya, mwet ma sifani yohk uh tia alukela ma fal, ac mwet ma sifani srik tia pac srik liki ma fal. Kais sie selos sifani fal na nu ke lupan enenu lalos.

and they measure with an omer, and he who is [gathering] much has nothing over, and he who is [gathering] little has no lack, each according to his eating they have gathered.

19 Moses el fahk nu selos, “Wangin sie mwet fah karingin kutu ma inge nu ke len se tok ah.”

And Moses says to them, “Let no man leave of it until morning”;

20 A kutu sin mwet uh tia lohngol Moses ac likiya kutu nu ke len tok ah. Ke lotutang tok ah, ma inge sessesla ke ulac ac pusrosrak, na Moses el kasrkusrak selos.

and they have not listened to Moses, and some of them leave of it until morning, and it brings up worms and stinks; and Moses is angry with them.

21 Lotutang nukewa kais sie mwet sifauk fal nu ke lupa el enenu; ac ke faht uh foli ma lula fin fohk uh kofelik.

And they gather it morning by morning, each according to his eating; when the sun has been warm, then it has melted.

22 Ke len se akonkosr elos sifani mwe mongo pacl luo yohk liki len saya uh — quart akosr nu sin kais sie mwet. Mwet kol ke sruf nukewa lun mwet Israel elos tuku ac srumun ma inge nu sel Moses,

And it comes to pass on the sixth day, they have gathered a second bread, two omers for one, and all the princes of the congregation come in, and declare [it] to Moses.

23 na el fahk nu selos, “LEUM GOD El sapkin tuh lutu sie len in mongla mutal, sriyukla in akfulatyal. Omunla ma kowos lungse umin, ac poeleak ma kowos ke poeli. Kutena ma lula fah orekeni in oan nu lutu.”

And he says to them, “It [is] that which YHWH has spoken: A rest—a holy Sabbath to YHWH—[is] tomorrow; that which you bake, bake; and that which you boil, boil; and all that is remaining, let [it] rest for yourselves for preservation until the morning.”

24 Ouinge elos orani ma lula nu ke len tok ah, in oana ma Moses el sapkin, na tiana pusrosrak ku ulauk.

And they let it rest until the morning, as Moses has commanded, and it has not stunk, and a worm has not been in it.

25 Moses el fahk, “Kang ma inge misenge mweyen misenge len Sabbath, sie len sriyukla nu sin LEUM GOD, ac kowos ac tia konauk kutena mwe mongo likin acn in aktuktuk uh.

And Moses says, “Eat it today, for today [is] a Sabbath to YHWH; today you do not find it in the field:

26 Kowos enenu in sifani mwe mongo ke len onkosr, tusruktu len se akitkosr len in mongla se, na ac fah wangin mongo sifeyukeni ke len sac.”

six days you gather it, and in the seventh day—the Sabbath—there is none in it.”

27 Ke len se akitkosr kutu sin mwet uh illa in suk mwe mongo, a wangin ma elos konauk.

And it comes to pass on the seventh day, some of the people have gone out to gather, and have not found.

28 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses, “Putaka pacl kowos mwet uh ac srangesr in akos ma nga sapkin uh?

And YHWH says to Moses, “How long have you refused to keep My commands and My laws?

29 Esam lah nga, LEUM GOD, sot sie len in mongla nu suwos, ac ke sripa se inge ke len akonkosr nukewa nga fah sot mwe mongo ma fal nu ke len luo. Mwet nukewa in mutana yen el muta we ke len se akitkosr ac tia som liki lohm sel.”

See, because YHWH has given the Sabbath to you, therefore He is giving to you on the sixth day bread of two days; each abide [in] his place, no one goes out from his place on the seventh day.”

30 Ouinge mwet uh tia orekma ke len se akitkosr.

And the people rest on the seventh day,

31 Mwet Israel elos pangon mwe mongo sac manna. Mwe mongo sac oana fita fasrfasr na srisrik se, ac emah uh oana eman flao minini orekla ke honey.

and the house of Israel calls its name Manna, and it [is] as white coriander seed; and its taste [is] as a cake with honey.

32 Moses el fahk, “LEUM GOD El sapkin tuh kut in karinganang kutu manna inge tuh fwilin tulik natusr in ku in liye mwe mongo ma El sang kite kut yen mwesis ke El uskutme liki acn Egypt.”

And Moses says, “This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded: Fill the omer with it, for a charge for your generations, so that they see the bread which I have caused you to eat in the wilderness, in My bringing you out from the land of Egypt.”

33 Moses el fahk nu sel Aaron, “Eis sie sufa, ac sang luo quart in manna nu loac, na filiya ye mutun LEUM GOD in karinginyukyang nu sin fwil natusr tok uh.”

And Moses says to Aaron, “Take one pot, and put the fullness of the omer of manna [in] there, and let it rest before YHWH, for a charge for your generations”;

34 Oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Moses, ouinge Aaron el filiya sufa sac mutun Tuptup in Wuleang, tuh in ku in karinginyukyang.

as YHWH has given command to Moses, so Aaron lets it rest before the Testimony, for a charge.

35 Mwet Israel elos mongo manna ke yac angngaul, nwe ke elos sun sisken facl Canaan, acn elos oakwuki we. (

And the sons of Israel have eaten the manna [for] forty years, until their coming to the land to be inhabited; they have eaten the manna until their coming to the extremity of the land of Canaan.

36 Mwe srikasrak flao in pacl meet pangpang “omer,” na omer se oana quart luo.)

And the omer is a tenth of the ephah.
