Exodus 16:4-9

4 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I am about to rain ^abread from heaven for you, and the people shall go out and gather a day’s portion every day, that I may ^btest them, whether they will walk in my law or not. 5 On the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, ^cit will be twice as much as they gather daily.” 6 So Moses and Aaron said to all the people of Israel, ^d“At evening ^eyou shall know that it was the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt, 7 and in the morning you shall see the ^fglory of the Lord, because he has heard your grumbling against the Lord. For ^gwhat are we, that you grumble against us?” 8 And Moses said, “When the Lord gives you in the evening meat to eat and in the morning bread to the full, because the Lord has heard your grumbling that you grumble against him— ^hwhat are we? Your grumbling is not ⁱagainst us but against the Lord.”

9 Then Moses ^jsaid to Aaron, “Say to the whole congregation of the people of Israel, ^k‘Come near before the Lord, for he has heard your grumbling.’”
