²³He said to them, “This is what the Lord said: Tomorrow is a day of rest—a holy day dedicated to the Lord. Bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil. Save all that’s left over, and keep it until tomorrow morning.”

²⁴So they saved it until the next morning as Moses had commanded, but it didn’t smell or have worms in it. ²⁵“Eat it today,” Moses said, “because today is a day of rest—a holy day dedicated to the Lord. You won’t find anything on the ground today. ²⁶You can gather food on six days, but on the seventh day, the day of rest, you won’t find any.”

²⁷On the seventh day some people went out to gather food, but they didn’t find any. ²⁸The Lord said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to do what I have commanded and instructed you to do? ²⁹Remember: The Lord has given you this day of rest as a holy day. That’s why he gives you enough food on the sixth day for two days. On the seventh day stay in your place—no one is to go out. Everyone, stay where you are.” ³⁰So the people never worked on the seventh day of the week.
