16:32 Moses said, “This is what 1 the Lord has commanded: ‘Fill an omer with it to be kept 2 for generations to come, 3 so that they may see 4 the food I fed you in the desert when I brought you out from the land of Egypt.’” 16:33 Moses said to Aaron, “Take a jar and put in it an omer full of manna, and place it before the Lord to be kept for generations to come.”
