Esodo 16

NOVA VULGATA	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Profectique sunt de Elim, et venit omnis congregatio filio rum Israel in desertum Sin, quod est inter Elim et Sinai, quinto decimo die mensis secundi postquam egressi sunt de terra Aegypti.	1 Setting out from Elim, the whole community of Israelites entered the desert of Sin, lying between Elimand Sinai -- on the fifteenth day of the second month after they had left Egypt.
2 Et murmuravit omnis congregatio filiorum Israel contra Moysen et Aaron in solitudine,	2 And the whole community of Israelites began complaining about Moses and Aaron in the desert
3 dixeruntque filii Israel ad eos: “ Utinam mortui essemus per manum Domini in terra Aegypti, quando sedebamus super ollas carnium et comedebamus panem in saturitate. Cur eduxistis nos in desertum istud, ut occideretis omnem coetum fame? ”.	3 and said to them, 'Why did we not die at Yahweh's hand in Egypt, where we used to sit round the fleshpots and could eat to our heart's content! As it is, you have led us into this desert to starve this entire assemblyto death!'
4 Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: “ Ecce ego pluam vobis panes de caelo; egrediatur populus et colligat, quae sufficiunt per singulos dies, ut tentem eum, utrum ambulet in lege mea an non.	4 Yahweh then said to Moses, 'Look, I shal rain down bread for you from the heavens. Each day thepeople must go out and collect their ration for the day; I propose to test them in this way to see whether they wilfol ow my law or not.
5 Die autem sexta parabunt quod intulerint, et duplum erit quam colligere solebant per singulos dies ”.	5 On the sixth day, however, when they prepare what they have brought in, this must be twice as muchas they col ect on ordinary days.'
6 Dixeruntque Moyses et Aaron ad omnes filios Israel: “ Vespere scietis quod Dominus eduxerit vos de terra Aegypti;	6 Moses and Aaron then said to the whole community of Israelites, 'This evening you wil know that itwas Yahweh who brought you out of Egypt,
7 et mane videbitis gloriam Domini. Audivit enim murmur vestrum contra Dominum. Nos vero quid sumus, quia mussitatis contra nos? ”.	7 and tomorrow morning you wil see the glory of Yahweh, for Yahweh has heard your complaints abouthim. What are we, that your complaint should be against us?'
8 Et ait Moyses: “ Dabit Dominus vobis vespere carnes edere et mane panes in saturitate, eo quod audierit murmurationes vestras, quibus murmurati estis contra eum. Nos enim quid sumus? Nec contra nos est murmur vestrum, sed contra Dominum ”.	8 Moses then said, 'This evening Yahweh wil give you meat to eat, and tomorrow morning bread to yourheart's content, for Yahweh has heard your complaints about him. What do we count for? Your complaints arenot against us, but against Yahweh.'
9 Dixitque Moyses ad Aaron: “ Dic universae congregationi filiorum Israel: Accedite coram Domino; audivit enim murmur ve strum ”.	9 Moses then said to Aaron, 'Say to the whole community of Israelites, "Approach Yahweh's presence,for he has heard your complaints." '
10 Cumque loqueretur Aaron ad omnem coetum filiorum Israel, respexerunt ad solitudinem, et ecce gloria Domini apparuit in nube.	10 As Aaron was speaking to the whole community of Israelites, they turned towards the desert, andthere the glory of Yahweh appeared in the cloud.
11 Locutus est autem Dominus ad Moysen dicens:	11 Yahweh then spoke to Moses and said,
12 “ Audivi murmurationes filiorum Israel. Loquere ad eos: Vespere comedetis carnes et mane saturabimini panibus scietisque quod ego sum Dominus Deus vester ”.	12 'I have heard the Israelites' complaints. Speak to them as follows, "At twilight you wil eat meat, and inthe morning you will have bread to your heart's content, and then you wil know that I am Yahweh your God." '
13 Factum est ergo vespere, et ascendens coturnix operuit castra; mane quoque ros iacuit per circuitum castrorum.	13 That evening, quails flew in and covered the camp, and next morning there was a layer of dew alround the camp.
14 Cumque operuisset superficiem deserti, apparuit minutum et squamatum in similitudinem pruinae super terram.	14 When the layer of dew lifted, there on the surface of the desert was something fine and granular, asfine as hoarfrost on the ground.
15 Quod cum vidissent filii Israel, dixerunt ad invicem: “ Manhu? ” (quod significat: “ Quid est hoc? ”). Ignorabant enim quid esset. Quibus ait Moyses: “ Iste est panis, quem dedit Dominus vobis ad vescendum.	15 As soon as the Israelites saw this, they said to one another, 'What is that ?' not knowing what it was.'That', Moses told them, 'is the food which Yahweh has given you to eat.
16 Hic est sermo, quem praecepit Dominus: "Colligat ex eo unusquisque quantum sufficiat ad vescendum; gomor per singula capita iuxta numerum animarum vestrarum, quae habitant in tabernaculo, sic tolletis" ”.	16 These are Yahweh's orders: Each of you must collect as much as he needs to eat -- a homer perhead for each person in his tent.'
17 Feceruntque ita filii Israel; et collegerunt alius plus, alius minus.	17 The Israelites did this. They col ected it, some more, some less.
18 Et mensi sunt ad mensuram gomor; nec qui plus collegerat, habuit amplius, nec qui minus paraverat, repperit minus, sed singuli, iuxta id quod edere poterant, congregaverunt.	18 When they measured out what they had col ected by the homer, no one who had collected more hadtoo much, no one who had col ected less had too little. Each had col ected as much as he needed to eat.
19 Dixitque Moyses ad eos: “ Nullus relinquat ex eo in mane ”.	19 Moses then said, 'No one may keep any of it for tomorrow.'
20 Qui non audierunt eum, sed dimiserunt quidam ex eis usque mane, et scatere coepit vermibus atque computruit; et iratus est contra eos Moyses.	20 But some of them took no notice of Moses and kept part of it for the fol owing day, and it bredmaggots and smelt foul; and Moses was angry with them.
21 Colligebant autem mane singuli, quantum sufficere poterat ad vescendum; cumque incaluisset sol, liquefiebat.	21 Morning by morning they collected it, each man as much as he needed to eat, and once the sun grewhot, it melted away.
22 In die autem sexta collegerunt cibos duplices, id est duo gomor per singulos homines. Venerunt autem omnes principes congregationis et narraverunt Moysi.	22 Now, on the sixth day they col ected twice the amount of food: two homer per person, and al theleaders of the community came and told Moses this.
23 Qui ait eis: “ Hoc est quod locutus est Dominus: Requies, sabbatum sanctum Domino cras; quodcumque torrendum est, torrete et, quae coquenda sunt, coquite; quidquid autem reliquum fuerit, reponite usque in mane ”.	23 Moses replied, 'This is what Yahweh said, "Tomorrow is a day of complete rest, a Sabbath sacred toYahweh. Bake what you want to bake, boil what you want to boil; put aside what is left over, to be kept fortomorrow."
24 Feceruntque ita, ut praeceperat Moyses, et non computruit, neque vermis inventus est in eo.	24 So, as Moses ordered, they put it aside for the fol owing day, and its smel was not foul nor werethere maggots in it.
25 Dixitque Moyses: “ Comedite illud hodie, quia sabbatum est Domino; non invenietur hodie in agro.	25 'Eat it today,' Moses said, 'for today is a Sabbath for Yahweh; you will find none in the fields today.
26 Sex diebus colligite; in die autem septimo sabbatum est Domino, idcirco non invenietur in eo ”.	26 For six days you wil col ect it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there wil be none.'
27 Venitque septima dies; et egressi de populo, ut colligerent, non invenerunt.	27 On the seventh day some of the people went out to col ect it, but they found none.
28 Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: “ Usquequo non vultis custodire mandata mea et legem meam?	28 Yahweh then said to Moses, 'How much longer wil you refuse to obey my commandments and laws?
29 Videte quod Dominus dederit vobis sabbatum et propter hoc die sexta tribuit vobis cibos duplices; maneat unusquisque apud semetipsum, nullus egrediatur de loco suo die septimo ”.	29 Look, Yahweh has given you the Sabbath; this is why he gives you two days' food on the sixth day;each of you must stay in his place; on the seventh day no one may leave his home.'
30 Et sabbatizavit populus die septimo.	30 So on the seventh day the people rested.
31 Appellavitque domus Israel nomen eius Man: quod erat quasi semen coriandri album, gustusque eius quasi similae cum melle.	31 The House of Israel named it 'manna'. It was like coriander seed; it was white and its taste was likethat of wafers made with honey.
32 Dixit autem Moyses: “ Iste est sermo, quem praecepit Dominus: "Imple gomor ex eo, et custodiatur in generationes vestras, ut noverint panem, quo alui vos in solitudine, quando educti estis de terra Aegypti" ”.	32 Moses then said, 'These are Yahweh's orders: Fil a homer with it and preserve it for yourdescendants, so that they can see the bread on which I fed you in the desert when I brought you out of Egypt.'
33 Dixitque Moyses ad Aaron: “ Sume vas unum et mitte ibi man, quantum potest capere gomor; et repone coram Domino ad servandum in generationes vestras ”.	33 Moses then said to Aaron, 'Take a jar and in it put a full homer of manna and store it in Yahweh'spresence, to be kept for your descendants.'
34 Sicut praecepit Dominus Moysi, posuit illud Aaron coram testimonio reservandum.	34 Accordingly, Aaron stored it in front of the Testimony, to be preserved, as Yahweh had orderedMoses.
35 Filii autem Israel comederunt man quadraginta annis, donec venirent in terram habitabilem; hoc cibo aliti sunt, usquequo tangerent fines terrae Chanaan.	35 The Israelites ate manna for forty years, up to the time they reached inhabited country: they atemanna up to the time they reached the frontiers of Canaan.
36 Gomor autem decima pars est ephi.	36 A homer is one-tenth of an ephah.
