And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust.

He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he brought in the south wind.

And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their habitations.

I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God.

And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host.

And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?

But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes.

And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it were a day's journey on this side, and as it were a day's journey on the other side, round about the camp, and as it were two cubits high upon the face of the earth.

And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague.

And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.

This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your persons; take ye every man for them which are in his tents.

And when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according to his eating.

Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank: and Moses was wroth with them.

And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.

And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm therein.

Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.

And the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws?

So the people rested on the seventh day.

And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commandeth, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread wherewith I have fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.

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

And the manna was as coriander seed, and the colour thereof as the colour of bdellium.

And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.

And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.

And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.

Thou gavest also thy good spirit to instruct them, and withheldest not thy manna from their mouth, and gavest them water for their thirst.

Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of heaven,

Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.

Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.

For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

I am that bread of life.

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.
