22 On the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two ‘omers per person; and all the community leaders came and reported to Moshe.

Exodus 16:20-22
New International Version
20 However, some of them paid no attention to Moses; they kept part of it until morning, but it was full of maggots and began to smell.(A) So Moses was angry(B) with them.
21 Each morning everyone gathered as much as they needed, and when the sun grew hot, it melted away. 22 On the sixth day, they gathered twice(C) as much—two omers[a] for each person—and the leaders of the community(D) came and reported this to Moses.
