Exodus 16:15 in Context — Exodus 16

13 Le soir, il survint des cailles qui couvrirent le camp; et, au matin, il y eut une couche de rosée autour du camp.

14 Quand cette rosée fut dissipée, il y avait à la surface du désert quelque chose de menu comme des grains, quelque chose de menu comme la gelée blanche sur la terre.

15 Les enfants d’Israël regardèrent et ils se dirent l’un à l’autre: Qu’est-ce que cela? Car ils ne savaient pas ce que c’était. Moïse leur dit: C’est le pain que L’Éternel vous donne pour nourriture.

16 Voici ce que l’Éternel a ordonné: Que chacun de vous en ramasse ce qu’il faut pour sa nourriture, un omer par tête, suivant le nombre de vos personnes; chacun en prendra pour ceux qui sont dans sa tente.

17 Les Israélites firent ainsi; et ils en ramassèrent les uns plus, les autres moins.
