Psalms 78:17-31

17Yet they added more sinning against Him, rebelling against Elyon in the desert.

18They put God to the test in their heart by demanding food for their craving.

19Then they spoke against God, saying, “Can God set a table in the wilderness?

20See, He struck the rock, waters gushed out, streams overflowed. But can He give bread? Will He provide meat for His people?”

21When Adonai heard, He was angry. A fire was kindled against Jacob, and fury also rose against Israel.

22For they did not believe in God or trust in His salvation.

23Yet He commanded the skies above and opened the doors of heaven,

24and rained down manna upon them to eat, and gave them grain of heaven.

25Man did eat the bread of angels. He sent them abundant provision.

26He loosed the east wind in the skies, and by His power He drove the south wind.

27He rained meat upon them like dust, and winged fowl like sand of the seas.

28And He let it fall amidst their camp, all around their tents.

29So they ate and were very full— for He gave them their desire.

30No longer a stranger from their desire, while their food was still in their mouths,

31the anger of God rose against them and slew the stoutest of them, and struck down young men of Israel.
