Exodus 16:22–30

²²On the sixth day they gathered twice as much food, four quarts ^fapiece, and all the leaders of the community came and reported this to Moses. ²³He told them, “This is what the Lord has said: ‘Tomorrow is a day of complete rest, a holy Sabbath ^gto the Lord. Bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil, and set aside everything left over to be kept until morning.’ ”

²⁴So they set it aside until morning as Moses commanded, and it didn’t smell or have any maggots in it. ²⁵“Eat it today,” Moses said, “because today is a Sabbath to the Lord. Today you won’t find any in the field. ²⁶For six days you may gather it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will be none.”

²⁷Yet on the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they did not find any. ²⁸Then the Lord said to Moses, “How long will you ^hrefuse to keep My commands ⁱand instructions? ²⁹Understand that the Lord has given you the Sabbath; therefore on the sixth day He will give you two days’ worth of bread. Each of you stay where you are; no one is to leave his place on the seventh day.” ³⁰So the people rested on the seventh day.
