²² On the sixth day the people gathered twice as much food—·four quarts [^Ltwo omers] for every person. When all the leaders of the ·community [congregation; assembly] came and told this to Moses, ²³ he said to them, “This is what the Lord ·commanded [^Lsaid], because tomorrow is the Sabbath, the Lord’s holy day of rest. Bake what you want to bake, and boil what you want to boil today. Save the rest of the food until tomorrow morning.”

²⁴ So the people saved it until the next morning, as Moses had commanded, and none of it ·began to stink [spoiled] or have worms in it.
