Exodus 16:20 in Context — Exodus 16

18 E mediam-no por gômer, e não sobrava ao que havia recolhido muito, nem faltava ao que havia recolhido pouco: cada um recolheu conforme o que havia de comer.

19 E disse-lhes Moisés: Nenhum deixe nada disso para amanhã.

20 Mas eles não obedeceram a Moisés, mas sim que alguns deixaram dele para outro dia, e criou bichos, e apodreceu-se; e irou-se contra eles Moisés.

21 E recolhiam-no cada manhã, cada um segundo o que havia de comer: e logo que o sol aquecia, derretia-se.

22 No sexto dia recolheram comida em dobro, dois gômeres para cada um; e todos os príncipes da congregação vieram a Moisés, e contaram-lhe isso.
