The people murmur for want of meat: God giveth them quails and manna.

1And they set forward from Elim, and all the multitude of the children of Israel came into the desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai: the fifteenth day of the second month, after they came out of the land of Egypt.E si partiron da Elim, e giunse tutta la moltitudine dei figliuoli d'Israele nel deserto di Sin, che è tra Elim e Sinai, a' quindici del secondo mese dopo la loro partenza dalla terra d'Egitto.AND they sette forward from Elim, and al the multitude of the children of Israel came into the desert Sin, which is betwene Elim & Sinay: the fiftenth day of the second moneth, after they came forth out of the Land of Aegypt.Profectique sunt de Elim, et venit omnis multitudo filiorum Israël in desertum Sin, quod est inter Elim et Sinai, quintodecimo die mensis secundi, postquam egressi sunt de terra Ægypti. 2And all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness.E tutta la turba dei figliuoli d'Israele mormorò contra Mosè ed Aronne in quella solitudine.And al the assemblie of the children of Israel murmured against Moyses and Aaron in the wildernesse.Et murmuravit omnis congregatio filiorum Israël contra Moysen et Aaron in solitudine. 3And the children of Israel said to them: Would to God we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat over the fleshpots, and ate bread to the full: Why have you brought us into this desert, that you might destroy all the multitude with famine?E disser loro i figliuoli d'Israele: Fossimo pur noi rimasi estinti per man del Signore nella terra d'Egitto, quando sedevamo sopra le caldaie piene di carni, e mangiavamo il pane a sazietà: perché ci avete condotti in questo deserto per far morire tutta la gente di fame?And the children of Israel said to them: Would to God we had died by the hand of our Lord in the Land of Aegypt, when we sate ouer the flesh pottes, and did eate bread our fill: why haue you brought vs into this desert, that you might kil al the multitude with famine?Dixeruntque filii Israël ad eos: Utinam mortui essemus per manum Domini in terra Ægypti, quando sedebamus super ollas carnium, et comedebamus panem in saturitate: cur eduxistis nos in desertum istud, ut occideretis omnem multitudinem fame ? 4And the Lord said to Moses: Behold I will rain bread from heaven for you; let the people go forth, and gather what is sufficient for every day: that I may prove them whether they will walk in my law, or not.Ma il Signore disse a Mosè: Ecco che io pioverò a voi pane dal cielo: vada il popolo, e raccolga tanto che basti dì per dì: ond'io faccia prova di lui, se cammini, o no secondo la mia legge.And our Lord said to Moyses: Behold I wil raine you bread from heauen: let the people goe forth, and gather that sufficeth for euerie day: that I may proue them whether they wil walke in my law, or no.Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: Ecce ego pluam vobis panes de cælo: egrediatur populus, et colligat quæ sufficiunt per singulos dies: ut tentem eum utrum ambulet in lege mea, an non.

5But the sixth day let them provide for to bring in: and let it be double to that they were wont to gather every day.Ma il sesto dì ne prendano da serbare, e sia il doppio di quel che solevano pigliare per ciascun giorno.But the sixt day let them prouide for to bring in: and let it be duble to that they were wont to gather euerie daie.Die autem sexto parent quod inferant: et sit duplum quam colligere solebant per singulos dies. 6And Moses and Aaron said to the children of Israel In the evening you shall know that the Lord hath brought you forth out of the land of Egypt:E Mosè ed Aronne dissero a tutti i figliuoli d'Israele: Questa sera voi conoscerete, che il Signore è quegli che vi ha tratti dalla terra d'Egitto:And Moyses and Aaron said to al the children of Israel: At euen you shal know that our Lord hath brought you forth out of the land of Aegypt:Dixeruntque Moyses et Aaron ad omnes filios Israël: Vespere scietis quod Dominus eduxerit vos de terra Ægypti, 7And in the morning you shall see the glory of the Lord: for he hath heard your murmuring against the Lord: but as for us, what are we, that you mutter against us?E domattina vedrete la possanza del Signore: imperocché egli ha udito le vostre querele contro di lui. Quanto a noi, che è quel, che noi siamo, onde abbiate a mormorare contro di noi?and in the morning you shal see the glorie of our Lord: for he hath heard your murmuring against our Lord: but as for vs, what are we, that you mutter against vs?et mane videbitis gloriam Domini: audivit enim murmur vestrum contra Dominum: nos vero quid sumus, quia mussitastis contra nos ? 8And Moses said: In the evening the Lord will give you flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full: for he hath heard your murmurings, with which you have murmured against him, for what are we? your murmuring is not against us, but against the Lord.E soggiunse Mosè: il Signore questa sera vi darà delle carni da mangiare, e domattina del pane a sazietà; perché egli ha udite le mormorazioni vomitate da voi contro di lui: perocché noi che siamo? non sono contro di noi le vostre mormorazioni, ma contro il Signore.And Moyses said: At euen our Lord wil geue you flesh to eate, and in the morning bread your fill: for he hath heard your murmuringes, which you haue murmured against him, for what are we? neither is your murmuring against vs, but against our Lord.Et ait Moyses: Dabit vobis Dominus 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.

9Moses also said to Aaron: Say to the whole congregation of the children of Israel: Come before the Lord; for he hath heard your murmuring.Disse ancora Mosè ad Aronne: di' a tutta la moltitudine de' figliuoli d'Israele: Presentatevi dinanzi al Signore: perocché egli ha udite le vostre mormorazioni.Moyses also said to Aaron: Say to the whole assemblie of the children of Israel: Approch you before our Lord: for he hath heard your murmuring.Dixit quoque Moyses ad Aaron: Dic universæ congregationi filiorum Israël: Accedite coram Domino: audivit enim murmur vestrum. 10And when Aaron spoke to all the assembly of the children of Israel, they looked towards the wilderness; and behold the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.E in quello che Aronne parlava a tutta la moltitudine de' figliuoli d'Israele, questi volsero gli occhi verso il deserto: ed ecco che la gloria del Signore si fe' vedere nella nuvola.And when Aaron spake to al the assemblie of the children of Israel, they looked toward the wildernesse: and behold the glorie of our Lord appeared in a cloud.Cumque loqueretur Aaron ad omnem cœtum filiorum Israël, respexerunt ad solitudinem: et ecce gloria Domini apparuit in nube. 11And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:E il Signore parlò a Mosè, e disse:And our Lord spake to Moyses, saving:Locutus est autem Dominus ad Moysen, dicens: 12I have heard the murmuring of the children of Israel, say to them: In the evening you shall eat flesh, and in the morning you shall have your fill of bread; and you shall know that I am the Lord your God.Ho udite le mormorazioni de' figliuoli d'Israele; tu dirai loro: Questa sera mangerete delle carni, e domattina vi satollerete di pane; e conoscerete, ch'io sono il Signore Dio vostro.I haue heard the murmuringes of the children of Israel, say to them: At euen you shal eate flesh, and in the morning you shal haue your fil of bread: and you shal know that I am the Lord your God.Audivi murmurationes filiorum Israël. Loquere ad eos: Vespere comedetis carnes, et mane saturabimini panibus: scietisque quod ego sum Dominus Deus vester. 13So it came to pass in the evening, that quails coming up, covered the camp: and in the morning a dew lay round about the camp.Fattosi adunque sera vennero le quaglie, che ricopersero gli alloggiamenti: e alla mattina la rugiada era sparsa intorno agli alloggiamenti.Therfore it came to passe at euen, and the quaile rose, and couered the campe: in the morning also a dew lay round about the campe.Factum est ergo vespere, et ascendens coturnix, cooperuit castra: mane quoque ros jacuit per circuitum castrorum.

14And when it had covered the face of the earth, it appeared in the wilderness small, and as it were beaten with a pestle, like unto the hoar frost on the ground.La quale avendo coperta la superficie della terra, videsi nel deserto una cosa minuta, e come pestata nel mortaio, e simile alla brinata (che cade) sopra la terra.And when it had couered the face of the earth, it appeared in the wildernesse smal, and as it were beaten with a pestil like vnto the hoare frost on the ground.Cumque operuisset superficiem terræ, apparuit in solitudine minutum, et quasi pilo tusum in similitudinem pruinæ super terram. 15And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another: Manhu! which signifieth: What is this! for they knew not what it was. And Moses said to them: This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat.E veduta che l'ebbero i figliuoli d'Israele, dissero l'uno all'altro: Manhu? vale a dire: Che è questo? Perocché non sapevan che cosa fosse. Disse loro Mosè: Questo è il pane datovi a mangiare dal Signore.Which when the children of Israel had seene, they said one to an other: Man-hu! which signifieth: What is this! for they knew not what it was. To whom Moyses said: This is the bread, which our Lord hath geuen you to eate.Quod cum vidissent filii Israël, dixerunt ad invicem: Manhu ? quod significat: Quid est hoc ? ignorabant enim quid esset. Quibus ait Moyses: Iste est panis quem Dominus dedit vobis ad vescendum. 16This is the word that the Lord hath commanded: Let every one gather of it as much as is enough to eat; a gomor for every man, according to the number of your souls that dwell in a tent, so shall you take of it.Ecco l'ordine dato dal Signore: Ne raccolga ognuno quanto gli basta pel suo nutrimento: così voi ne prenderete un gomor per testa secondo il numero delle anime, che stanno in ciascun tabernacolo.This is the word, that our Lord hath commanded: Let euerie one gather of it so much as sufficeth to eate: a gomor euerie man, according to the number of your soules that dwel in a tent so shal you take vp.Hic est sermo, quem præcepit Dominus: Colligat unusquisque ex eo quantum sufficit ad vescendum: gomor per singula capita, juxta numerum animarum vestrarum quæ habitant in tabernaculo sic tolletis. 17And the children of Israel did so: and they gathered, one more, another less.E fecero così i figliuoli d'Israele: e ne raccolsero gli uni più, e gli altri meno.And the children of Israel did so: and they gathered, one more, an other lesse.Feceruntque ita filii Israël: et collegerunt, alius plus, alius minus.

18And they measured by the measure of a gomor: neither had he more that had gathered more; nor did he find less that had provided less: but every one had gathered, according to what they were able to eat.E avendolo misurato a tanti gomor, chi ne avea raccolto di più, non ne ebbe in maggior quantità, e chi ne avea raccolto di meno, non ne trovò di meno; ma ciascheduno ne raunò a proporzione di quel che poteva mangiare.And they measured by the measure of a gomor: neither he that gathered more, had aboue: nor he that prouided lesse, found vnder: but euerie one gathered, according to that which they were able to eate.Et mensi sunt ad mensuram gomor: nec qui plus collegerat, habuit amplius: nec qui minus paraverat, reperit minus: sed singuli juxta id quod edere poterant, congregaverunt. 19And Moses said to them: Let no man leave thereof till the morning.E disse loro Mosè: Nissuno ne serbi pel dimane.And Moyses said to them: Let no man leaue therof til the morning.Dixitque Moyses ad eos: Nullus relinquat ex eo in mane. 20And they hearkened not to him, but some of them left until the morning, and it began to be full of worms, and it putrified, and Moses was angry with them.V'ebbe di quelli che non obbedirono a lui, e ne serbarono fino al dì seguente: e cominciò a bulicare di vermi, e si corruppe: e Mosè si adirò contro costoro.Who heard him not, but certaine of them left vntil the morning, and it beganne to be ful of wormes, and it putrified. and Moyses was angrie against them.Qui non audierunt eum, sed dimiserunt quidam ex eis usque mane, et scatere cœpit vermibus, atque computruit: et iratus est contra eos Moyses. 21Now every one of them gathered in the morning, as much as might suffice to eat: and after the sun grew hot, it melted.E raunavano ognuno la mattina, quanto bastar poteva pel loro sostentamento: e quando il sole era riscaldato, la manna si squagliava.And euerie one of them gathered in the morning, so much as might suffice to eate: and after the sunne waxed hotte, it melted.Colligebant autem mane singuli, quantum sufficere poterat ad vescendum: cumque incaluisset sol, liquefiebat. 22But on the sixth day they gathered twice as much, that is, two gomors every man: and all the rulers of the multitude came, and told Moses.Ma il sesto giorno raccolsero il doppio del cibo, vale a dire due gomor per testa: e andarono tutti i capi della moltitudine a darne parte a Mosè.But in the sixt day they gathered duble portions, that is, two gomors euerie man: and al the princes of the multitude came, and told Moyses.In die autem sexta collegerunt cibos duplices, id est, duo gomor per singulos homines: venerunt autem omnes principes multitudinis, et narraverunt Moysi.

23And he said to them: This is what the Lord hath spoken: To morrow is the rest of the sabbath sanctified to the Lord. Whatsoever work is to be done, do it; and the meats that are to be dressed, dress them; and whatsoever shall remain, lay it up until the morning.Il quale disse loro: Questo è quello che ha detto il Signore: Domani è la requie del sabato consacrata al Signore: fate tutto quello che avete da lavorare, e cuocete quel che vi è da cuocere: e quello che avanza, serbatelo per domane.Who said to them: This is it which our Lord hath spoken: The Sabbathes rest is sanctified vnto our Lord to morow. Whatsoeuer is to be wrought, doe it: and the meates that are to be made readie, make them readie: and whatsoeuer shal remaine, lay it vp vntil the morning.Qui ait eis: Hoc est quod locutus est Dominus: Requies sabbati sanctificata est Domino cras: quodcumque operandum est, facite, et quæ coquenda sunt coquite: quidquid autem reliquum fuerit, reponite usque in mane. 24And they did so as Moses had commanded, and it did not putrify, neither was there worm found in it.E fecero, come avea comandato Mosè: e (la manna) non si guastò, e non vi si trovò nissun verme.And they did so as Moyses had commanded, and it putrified not, neither• was there worme found in it.Feceruntque ita ut præceperat Moyses, et non computruit, neque vermis inventus est in eo. 25And Moses said: Eat it to day, because it is the sabbath of the Lord: to day it shall not be found in the field.E Mosè disse: Questo lo mangerete oggi: non ne troverete nella campagna oggi, perché è il sabato del Signore.And Moyses said: Eate it to day, because it is the Sabbath of our Lord: to day it shal not be found in the field.Dixitque Moyses: Comedite illud hodie, quia sabbatum est Domini: non invenietur hodie in agro. 26Gather it six days; but on the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord, therefore it shall not be found.Raccoglietelo pei sei giorni: ma il settimo giorno non ne troverete, perché è il sabato del Signore.Gather it six dayes: but in the seuenth day is the Sabbath of our Lord, therfore it shal not be found.Sex diebus colligite: in die autem septimo sabbatum est Domini, idcirco non invenietur. 27And the seventh day came; and some of the people going forth to gather, found none.E venne il settimo giorno: ed essendo andati alcuni del popolo per raccogliere, non ne trovarono.And the seuenth day came: and some of the people going forth to gather, found not.Venitque septima dies: et egressi de populo ut colligerent, non invenerunt.

28And the Lord said to Moses: How long will you refuse to keep my commandments, and my law?E il Signore disse a Mosè: Fino a quando ricuserete di osservare i miei comandamenti, e la mia legge?And our Lord said to Moyses: How long wil you not keepe my commandementes, and my law?Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen: Usquequo non vultis custodire mandata mea et legem meam ? 29See that the Lord hath given you the sabbath, and for this reason on the sixth day he giveth you a double provision: let each man stay at home, and let none go forth out of his place the seventh day.Riflettete, che il Signore ha dato a voi il sabato, e per questo il sesto giorno ha dato a voi doppio cibo: ognuno se ne stia nella sua tenda: nissuno esca dal suo posto nel settimo giorno.See that our Lord hath geuen you a Sabbath, and for this cause on the sixt day he geueth you duble portions: let each man tarie with himselfe, and let none goe forth out of his place the seuenth day.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. 30And the people kept the sabbath on the seventh day.E il popolo osservò la requie del settimo giorno.And the people kept the Sabbath on the seuenth day.Et sabbatizavit populus die septimo. 31And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like coriander seed, white, and the taste thereof like to flour with honey.E la famiglia d'Israele chiamò quel cibo col nome di Man: ed ella era simile al seme di coriandoli bianco, e nel sapore simile alla farina (impastata) col miele.And the house of Israel called the name therof Manna: which was as it were coriander seede white, and the taist therof like to flowre with honie.Appellavitque domus Israël nomen ejus Man: quod erat quasi semen coriandri album, gustusque ejus quasi similæ cum melle. 32And Moses said: This is the word which the Lord hath commanded: Fill a gomor of it, and let it be kept unto generations to come hereafter; that they may know the bread, wherewith I fed you in the wilderness when you were brought forth out of the land of Egypt.E Mosè disse: Questo è il comando dato dal Signore: Riempine un gomor, e si conservi per le generazioni, che saranno in appresso, affinché veggano di qual pane vi ho nudriti nella solitudine, quando vi ho tratti dalla terra d'Egitto.And Moyses sayd: This is the word, which our Lord hath commanded: Fil a gomor of it, and let it be kept vnto the generations to come hereafter: that they may know the bread, wherwith I fed you in the wildernes, when you were brought forth out of the Land of Aehypt.Dixit autem Moyses: Iste est sermo, quem præcepit Dominus: Imple gomor ex eo, et custodiatur in futuras retro generationes: ut noverint panem, quo alui vos in solitudine, quando educti estis de terra Ægypti.

33And Moses said to Aaron: Take a vessel, and put manna into it, as much as a gomor can hold; and lay it up before the Lord, to keep unto your generations,E Mosè disse ad Aronne: Prendi un vaso, e mettivi della manna, quanta ne cape un gomor: e riponla dinanzi al Signore per conservarla nelle future vostre generazioni,And Moyses sayd to Aaron: Take one vessel, and put Manna into it, so much as a gomor can hold: and lay it vp before our Lord to keepe vnto your generations:Dixitque Moyses ad Aaron: Sume vas unum, et mitte ibi man, quantum potest capere gomor, et repone coram Domino ad servandum in generationes vestras, 34As the Lord commanded Moses. And Aaron put it in the tabernacle to be kept.Come ha ordinato a me il Signore. E lo pose Aronne nel tabernacolo per conservarlo.as our Lord commanded Moyses. And Aaron put it in the tabernacle to be reserued.sicut præcepit Dominus Moysi. Posuitque illud Aaron in tabernaculo reservandum. 35And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, till they came to a habitable land: with this meat were they fed, until they reached the borders of the land of Chanaan.E i figliuoli d'Israele mangiaron la manna per quarant'anni, fino a tanto che giunsero in terra abitata: con questo cibo furono pasciuti, fino a tanto che giunsero a' confini della terra di Chanaan.And the children of Israel did came Manna fourtie yeares, til they came into the habitable land: with this meate were they fed, vntil they touched the borders of the land of Chanaan.Filii autem Israël comederunt man quadraginta annis, donec venirent in terram habitabilem: hoc cibo aliti sunt, usquequo tangerent fines terræ Chanaan. 36Now a gomor is the tenth part of an ephi.Il Gomor poi è la decima parte dell'ephi.And a gomor is the tenth part of an ephi.Gomor autem decima pars est ephi.
