Psalm 78:16–20

He made streams come out of the rock

and caused waters to flow down like rivers.

Yet they sinned still more against him,

rebelling against the Most High in the desert.

They tested God in their heart

by demanding the food they craved.

They spoke against God, saying,

“Can God spread a table in the wilderness?

He struck the rock so that water gushed out

and streams overflowed.

Can he also give bread

or provide meat for his people?”

he brought streams out of a rocky crag

and made water flow down like rivers.

But they continued to sin against him,

rebelling in the wilderness against the Most High.

They willfully put God to the test

by demanding the food they craved.

They spoke against God;

they said, “Can God really

spread a table in the wilderness?

True, he struck the rock,

and water gushed out,

streams flowed abundantly,

but can he also give us bread?

Can he supply meat for his people?”

He brought streams out of the stone

and made water flow down like rivers.

But they continued to sin against him,

rebelling in the desert against the Most High.

They deliberately tested God,

demanding the food they craved.

They spoke against God, saying,

“Is God able to provide food in the wilderness?

Look! He struck the rock and water gushed out;

torrents overflowed.

But can he also provide bread

or furnish meat for his people?”

He made streams pour from the rock,

making the waters flow down like a river!

Yet they kept on sinning against him,

rebelling against the Most High in the desert.

They stubbornly tested God in their hearts,

demanding the foods they craved.

They even spoke against God himself, saying,

“God can’t give us food in the wilderness.

Yes, he can strike a rock so water gushes out,

but he can’t give his people bread and meat.”

And he brought streams out of the rock

and caused water to flow down like rivers.

But they sinned still further against him

by rebelling against the Most High in the desert.

And they tested God in their heart

by asking food for their craving.

And they spoke against God.

They said, “Is God able

to prepare a table in the wilderness?

Yes, he struck the rock and water flowed

and streams gushed out,

but can he also give food

or provide meat for his people?”

He brought streams also out of the rock,

And caused waters to run down like rivers.

And they sinned yet more against him

By provoking the most High in the wilderness.

And they tempted God in their heart

By asking meat for their lust.

Yea, they spake against God; they said,

Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?

Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out,

And the streams overflowed;

Can he give bread also?

Can he provide flesh for his people?
