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.

Aber da man's mit dem Gomer maß, fand der nicht darüber, der viel gesammelt hatte, und der nicht darunter, der wenig gesammelt hatte; sondern ein jeglicher hatte gesammelt, soviel er für sich essen mochte.
Y medíanlo por gomer, y no sobraba al que había recogido mucho, ni faltaba al que había recogido poco: cada uno recogió conforme a lo que había de comer.
Cuando lo midieron con la medida de unos dos litros, al que había recogido mucho no le sobró, ni al que había recogido poco le faltó. Cada uno había recogido lo que necesitaba para comer.
On mesurait ensuite avec l'omer; celui qui avait ramassé plus n'avait rien de trop, et celui qui avait ramassé moins n'en manquait pas. Chacun ramassait ce qu'il fallait pour sa nourriture.
E lo misurarono con l’omer; e chi ne avea raccolto assai non n’ebbe di soverchio; e chi ne avea raccolto poco non n’ebbe di manco; ciascuno ne raccoglieva quanto gliene bisognava per lo suo mangiare.
Porém, medindo-o com o ômer, não sobejava ao que colhera muito, nem faltava ao que colhera pouco; cada um colheu tanto quanto podia comer.
用俄梅珥量一量,多收的沒有餘,少收的也沒有缺;各人都按著自己的食量收集。
