Exodus 16:14-16

Exodus 16:14-16
International Standard Version
14 When the layer of dew evaporated,[a] on the surface of the desert a fine flaky substance, as fine as frost, appeared on the ground. 15 When the Israelis saw it, they asked one another, “What is it?”,[b] because they did not know what it was.
Moses told them, “It’s the food that the Lord has given you to eat. 16 This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘You are to gather from it what each person is to eat,[c] about one omer[d] per person according to the number of your people, and one person is to gather for everyone in his tent.’”
