Psalm 78:18–31

¹⁸And ^hthey tempted God in their heart

By asking meat for their lust.

¹⁹Yea, they spake against God; they said,

ⁱCan God furnish a table in the wilderness?

²⁰Behold, ^jhe smote the rock, that ^kthe waters gushed out,

And the streams overflowed;

Can he give bread also?

Can he ^lprovide flesh for his people?

²¹Therefore the Lord heard this, and ^mwas wroth:

So ⁿa fire was kindled against ^oJacob,

And anger also ^pcame up against ^oIsrael;

²²Because they ^qbelieved not in God,

And trusted not in his salvation:

²³Though he had commanded the clouds from above,

And ^ropened the doors of heaven,

²⁴And had ^srained down manna upon them to eat,

And had given them of ^tthe corn of heaven.

²⁵Man did eat ^uangels’ food:

He sent them meat ^wto the full.

²⁶He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven:

And by his power he ^xbrought in the south wind.

²⁷He rained flesh also upon them ^yas dust,

And feathered fowls like ^zas the sand of the sea:

^28aAnd he let it fall in the midst of their camp,

Round about their habitations.

^29bSo they did eat, and were well filled:

For he gave them their own ^cdesire;

³⁰They were not estranged from their ^clust.

But ^dwhile their meat was yet in their mouths,

³¹The wrath of God ^ecame upon them,

And slew the ^ffattest of them,

And smote down the chosen men of Israel.
