Psalms 78:17-31

17YetH5750 went they on stillH5750 to sinH2398 against him,To rebelH4784 against the Most High in the desert.18And they tempted GodH410 in their heartH3824 By askingH7592 foodH400 according to their desireH5315.19Yea, they spake against GodH430;They saidH559, Can GodH430 prepareH6186 a tableH7979 in the wildernessH4057?20Behold, he smote the rockH6697, so that watersH4325 gushed out,And streams overflowed;Can he giveH5414 breadH3899 alsoH1571?Will he provide fleshH7607 for his peopleH5971?21ThereforeH3651 Jehovah heardH8085, and was wroth;And a fireH784 was kindled against JacobH3290,And angerH639 alsoH1571 wentH5927 up against IsraelH3478;22Because they believedH539 not in GodH430,And trustedH982 not in his salvationH3444.23Yet he commandedH6680 the skies above,And openedH6605 the doorsH1817 of heavenH8064;24And he rainedH4305 downH4305 mannaH4478 upon them to eatH398,And gaveH5414 them food from heavenH8064.25ManH376 did eatH398 the breadH3899 of the mightyH47:He sentH7971 them foodH3899 to the full.26He caused the eastH6921 windH6921 to blow in the heavensH8064;And by his power he guided the southH8486 windH6921.27He rainedH4305 fleshH7607 also upon them as the dustH6083,And wingedH3671 birdsH5775 as the sandH2344 of the seasH3220:28And he let it fallH5307 in the midstH7130 of their campH4264,RoundH5439 about their habitations.29So they did eatH398, and were well filled;And he gave them their own desireH8378.30They were not estranged from that which they desiredH8378,Their foodH400 was yetH5750 in their mouthsH6310,31When the angerH639 of GodH430 wentH5927 up against them,And slewH2026 of the fattest of them,And smote down the youngH970 menH970 of IsraelH3478.
