¹They took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.

¹In odrinili so iz Elima, in prišla je vsa občina sinov Izraelovih v puščavo Sinsko, ki je med Elimom in med Sinajem, petnajsti dan drugega meseca po svojem odhodu iz Egipta.

²The whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;

²In mrmrala je vsa občina sinov Izraelovih zoper Mojzesa in Arona v puščavi,

³and the children of Israel said to them, “We wish that we had died by the hand of Yahweh in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the meat pots, when we ate our fill of bread, for you have brought us out into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.”

³in rekli so jima sinovi Izraelovi: O, da bi bili umrli po roki GOSPODOVI v deželi Egiptovski, ko smo sedeli pri loncih mesa in jedli kruh dosita! kajti izpeljala sta nas v to puščavo, da vso tole množico pomorita z lakoto!

⁴Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I will rain bread from the sky for you, and the people shall go out and gather a day’s portion every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in my law, or not.

⁴Tedaj reče GOSPOD Mojzesu: Glej, dežil vam bom kruh z neba; ljudstvo pa naj hodi in pobira vsak dan, kolikor tisti dan potrebuje, da ga izkusim, ali bo po mojem zakonu živelo ali ne.

⁵It shall come to pass on the sixth day, that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.”

⁵In šesti dan naj pripravijo, kar so nabrali, in bode dvakrat toliko, po kolikor so nabrali vsak dan.

⁶Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, “At evening, then you shall know that Yahweh has brought you out from the land of Egypt;

⁶In Mojzes in Aron sporočita vsem sinovom Izraelovim: Zvečer spoznate, da vas je GOSPOD peljal iz dežele Egiptovske,

⁷and in the morning, then you shall see the glory of Yahweh; because he hears your murmurings against Yahweh. Who are we, that you murmur against us?”

⁷in zjutraj boste videli slavo GOSPODOVO, ker je on slišal mrmranje vaše zoper GOSPODA, kajti kaj sva midva, da mrmrate zoper naju?

⁸Moses said, “Now Yahweh shall give you meat to eat in the evening, and in the morning bread to satisfy you; because Yahweh hears your murmurings which you murmur against him. And who are we? Your murmurings are not against us, but against Yahweh.”

⁸In reče Mojzes: Po tem to spoznate, ko vam GOSPOD dá zvečer jesti mesa in zjutraj kruha dosita; ker je GOSPOD slišal mrmranje vaše, s katerim ste godrnjali zoper njega. Kaj sva pač midva? Ne zoper naju je mrmranje vaše, ampak zoper GOSPODA.

⁹Moses said to Aaron, “Tell all the congregation of the children of Israel, ‘Come near before Yahweh, for he has heard your murmurings.’”

⁹In veli Mojzes Aronu: Govori vsej občini sinov Izraelovih: Približajte se GOSPODU, kajti slišal je mrmranje vaše.

¹⁰It happened, as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of Yahweh appeared in the cloud.

¹⁰In zgodilo se je, ko je Aron govoril vsej občini sinov Izraelovih, da se obrnejo proti puščavi, in glej, slava GOSPODOVA se je prikazala v oblaku.

¹¹Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹¹In GOSPOD je govoril Mojzesu, rekoč:

¹²“I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, ‘At evening you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread: and you shall know that I am Yahweh your God.’”

¹²Slišal sem mrmranje Izraelovih otrok; povej jim tole: Proti večeru boste jedli meso in zjutraj se nasitili kruha, in spoznali boste, da sem jaz GOSPOD, vaš Bog.

¹³It happened at evening that quail came up and covered the camp; and in the morning the dew lay around the camp.

¹³In zgodi se zvečer, da so priletele prepelice in pokrile tabor; in zjutraj je ležala rosa okrog tabora.

¹⁴When the dew that lay had gone, behold, on the surface of the wilderness was a small round thing, small as the frost on the ground.

¹⁴Ko se je pa rosa vzdignila, glej, po površju puščave je nekaj drobnega, luskinastega, drobnega kakor slana na tleh.

¹⁵When the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, “What is it?” For they didn’t know what it was. Moses said to them, “It is the bread which Yahweh has given you to eat.”

¹⁵In sinovi Izraelovi, videč to, so rekli drug drugemu: Kaj je to? niso namreč vedeli, kaj je. In Mojzes jim reče: To je tisti kruh, ki vam ga je dal GOSPOD za jed.

¹⁶This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded: “Gather of it everyone according to his eating; an omer An omer is about 2.2 litres or about 2.3 quarts a head, according to the number of your persons, you shall take it, every man for those who are in his tent.”

¹⁶To je beseda, ki jo je zapovedal GOSPOD: Vsak naj nabere tega, kolikor more pojesti; gomer za vsako glavo, po številu vaših duš; vsak naj vzame tega za tiste, ki so v njegovem šatoru.

¹⁷The children of Israel did so, and gathered some more, some less.

¹⁷In storili so tako sinovi Izraelovi, in nabrali so, eden več, drugi manj.

¹⁸When they measured it with an omer, he who gathered much had nothing over, and he who gathered little had no lack. They gathered every man according to his eating.

¹⁸In so merili z gomerom: in kdor je mnogo nabral, mu ni ničesar preostalo, in kdor je malo nabral, mu ni ničesar manjkalo; vsakdo je nabral, prav kolikor je mogel snesti.

¹⁹Moses said to them, “Let no one leave of it until the morning.”

¹⁹In Mojzes jim veli: Nihče naj ne pusti kaj tega do jutra!

²⁰Notwithstanding they didn’t listen to Moses, but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and became foul: and Moses was angry with them.

²⁰Toda niso Mojzesa poslušali, in nekateri so pustili ostanek do jutra; in zaredili so se v tem črvi, in usmradilo se je. In razsrdil se je Mojzes nad njimi.

²¹They gathered it morning by morning, everyone according to his eating. When the sun grew hot, it melted.

²¹In nabirali so jutro za jutrom, vsakdo, kolikor je mogel pojesti; kadar pa je solnce pripekalo, se je raztajalo.

²²It happened that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one, and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.

²²In zgodi se šesti dan, da nabero kruha dvakrat toliko, dva gomera za enega. In pridejo vsi prvaki občine povedat to Mojzesu.

²³He said to them, “This is that which Yahweh has spoken, ‘Tomorrow is a solemn rest, a holy Sabbath to Yahweh. Bake that which you want to bake, and boil that which you want to boil; and all that remains over lay up for yourselves to be kept until the morning.’”

²³In on jim reče: To je, kar je govoril GOSPOD: Jutri bo praznik, svet počitek GOSPODU; kar hočete peči, pecite, in kar hočete kuhati, kuhajte, in karkoli preostane, denite na stran, da se prihrani do jutra.

²⁴They laid it up until the morning, as Moses asked, and it didn’t become foul, neither was there any worm in it.

²⁴Deli so torej to na stran do jutra, kakor je ukazal Mojzes, a ni se usmradilo, tudi ni bilo črvov v tem.

²⁵Moses said, “Eat that today, for today is a Sabbath to Yahweh. Today you shall not find it in the field.

²⁵In Mojzes reče: Jejte to danes, kajti danes je praznik GOSPODU, danes ne najdete nič tega na polju.

²⁶Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day is the Sabbath. In it there shall be none.”

²⁶Šest dni boste nabirali, a sedmi dan je počitek, tedaj ne bo tega.

²⁷It happened on the seventh day, that some of the people went out to gather, and they found none.

²⁷Zgodi se pa sedmi dan, da so šli nekateri izmed ljudstva nabirat, a niso ničesar našli.

²⁸Yahweh said to Moses, “How long do you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws?

²⁸In GOSPOD reče Mojzesu: Doklej se pa boste upirali, da spoštujete ukaze moje in povelja moja?

²⁹Behold, because Yahweh has given you the Sabbath, therefore he gives you on the sixth day the bread of two days. Everyone stay in his place. Let no one go out of his place on the seventh day.”

²⁹Glejte, ker vam je GOSPOD dal praznik, zato vam daje šesti dan kruha za dva dni. Vsakdo naj ostane na svojem, nihče ne odhajaj s svojega kraja sedmi dan!

³⁰So the people rested on the seventh day.

³⁰Počivalo je torej ljudstvo sedmi dan.

³¹The house of Israel called its name Manna, “Manna” means “What is it?” and it was like coriander seed, white; and its taste was like wafers with honey.

³¹In imenovala je hiša Izraelova ta kruh mano; bil je pa kakor belo koriandrovo seme in njegov okus kakor medeni kolači.

³²Moses said, “This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded, ‘Let an omer-full of it be kept throughout your generations, that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.’”

³²In Mojzes je rekel: To je, kar je ukazal GOSPOD: Poln gomer tega naj se shrani za prihodnje rodove vaše, zato da vidijo kruh, s katerim sem vas hranil v puščavi, ko sem vas peljal iz dežele Egiptovske.

³³Moses said to Aaron, “Take a pot, and put an omer-full of manna in it, and lay it up before Yahweh, to be kept throughout your generations.”

³³Veli torej Mojzes Aronu: Vzemi posodo in deni vanjo poln gomer mane, in položi jo pred GOSPODOM, da se hrani za prihodnje rodove vaše.

³⁴As Yahweh commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.

³⁴Kakor je bil ukazal GOSPOD Mojzesu, tako jo je Aron položil pred pričevanjem, da bodi shranjena.

³⁵The children of Israel ate the manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land. They ate the manna until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.

³⁵In jedli so sinovi Izraelovi mano štirideset let, dokler niso prišli v naseljeno deželo; jedli so mano, dokler niso prišli do meje dežele Kanaanske.Gomer pa je deseti del efe.

³⁶Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah. 1 ephah is about 22 litres or about 2/3 of a bushel

³⁶Gomer pa je deseti del efe.
