Psalms 78:9-41

9The sonsH1121 of EphraimH669, armed bowmen, turnedH2015 backH2015 in the dayH3117 of battleH7128.10They keptH8104 not the covenantH1285 of 1GodH430, and refusedH3985 to walk in his lawH8451;11And forgotH7911 his doings, and his marvellous works which he had shewn them.12In the sight of their fathersH1 had he done wondersH6382, in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, the fieldH7704 of ZoanH6814.13He clave the seaH3220, and caused them to passH5674 through; and made the watersH4325 to standH5324 as a heap;14And he ledH5148 them with a cloudH6051 in the daytimeH3119, and all the nightH3915 with the lightH216 of fireH784.15He clave rocksH6697 in the wildernessH4057, and gaveH8248 [them] drinkH8248 as out of the depthsH8415, abundantly;16And he broughtH3318 streams out of the rockH5553, and caused watersH4325 to run down like riversH5104.17YetH5750 they stillH5750 went on sinningH2398 against him, provoking the Most High in the desert;18And they tempted 2GodH410 in their heartH3824, by askingH7592 meat for their lust;19And they spokeH1696 against 3GodH430: they saidH559, Is 4GodH430 ableH3201 to prepareH6186 a tableH7979 in the wildernessH4057?20Behold, he smote the rockH6697, and watersH4325 gushed out, and streams overflowed; is he ableH3201 to giveH5414 breadH3899 alsoH1571, or provide fleshH7607 for his peopleH5971?21ThereforeH3651 Jehovah heardH8085, and was wroth; and fireH784 was kindled against JacobH3290, and angerH639 alsoH1571 wentH5927 up against IsraelH3478:22Because they believedH539 not in 5GodH430, and confided not in his salvationH3444;23Though he had commandedH6680 the cloudsH7834 from above, and had openedH6605 the doorsH1817 of the heavensH8064,24And had rainedH4305 downH4305 mannaH4478 upon them to eatH398, and had givenH5414 them the corn of the heavensH8064.25ManH376 did eatH398 the breadH3899 of the mightyH47; he sentH7971 them provision to the full.26He caused the eastH6921 windH6921 to rise in the heavensH8064, and by his strengthH5797 he brought the southH8486 windH6921;27And he rainedH4305 fleshH7607 upon them as dustH6083, and feathered fowl as the sandH2344 of the seasH3220,28And he let it fallH5307 in the midstH7130 of their campH4264, roundH5439 about their habitations:29And they did eatH398, and were well filled; for that they lusted after, he broughtH935 to them.30They were not alienated from their lust, their meat was yetH5750 in their mouthsH6310,31When the angerH639 of 6GodH430 wentH5927 up against them; and he slewH2026 the fattest of them, and smote down the chosen menH970 of IsraelH3478.32For all this, they sinnedH2398 stillH5750, and believedH539 not in his marvellous works;33And he consumed their daysH3117 in vanityH1892, and their yearsH8141 in terrorH928.34When he slewH2026 them, then they soughtH1875 him, and returnedH7725 and soughtH1875 early after 7GodH410;35And they rememberedH2142 that 8GodH430 was their rockH6697, and 9GodH430, the Most High, their redeemerH1350.36But they flattered him with their mouthH6310, and liedH3576 unto him with their tongueH3956;37For their heartH3820 was not firm toward him, neither were they stedfast in his covenantH1285.38But he was merciful: he forgave the iniquityH5771, and destroyedH7843 [them] not; but manyH7235 a time turnedH7725 he his angerH639 awayH7725, and did not stirH5782 up all his fury:39And he rememberedH2142 that they were fleshH1320, a breathH7307 that passeth awayH7725 and cometh not again.40HowH4100 oft did they provoke him in the wildernessH4057, and grieve him in the desert!41And they turnedH7725 again and tempted 10GodH410, and grieved the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.
