Exodus 16:22 in Context — Exodus 16

20 Ils n’écoutèrent pas Moïse, et il y eut des gens qui en laissèrent jusqu’au matin; mais il s’y mit des vers, et cela devint infect. Moïse fut irrité contre ces gens.

21 Tous les matins, chacun ramassait ce qu’il fallait pour sa nourriture; et quand venait la chaleur du soleil, cela fondait.

22 Le sixième jour, ils ramassèrent une quantité double de nourriture, deux omers pour chacun. Tous les principaux de l’assemblée vinrent le rapporter à Moïse.

23 Et Moïse leur dit: C’est ce que l’Éternel a ordonné. Demain est le jour du repos, le sabbat consacré à l’Éternel; faites cuire ce que vous avez à faire cuire, faites bouillir ce que vous avez à faire bouillir, et mettez en réserve jusqu’au matin tout ce qui restera.

24 Ils le laissèrent jusqu’au matin, comme Moïse l’avait ordonné; et cela ne devint point infect, et il ne s’y mit point de vers.
