28. God brought the birds down in the center of their camp,all around their dwellings.
29. So they ate and were completely satisfied;God gave them exactly what they had craved.
30. But they didn’t stop craving—even with the food still in their mouths!
31. So God’s anger came up against them:he killed the most hearty of them;he cut down Israel’s youth in their prime.
32. But in spite of all that, they kept sinningand had no faith in God’s wondrous works.
33. So God brought their days to an end,like a puff of air,and their years in total ruin.
34. But whenever God killed them, they went after him!They would turn and earnestly search for God.
35. They would remember that God was their rock,that the Most High was their redeemer.
36. But they were just flattering him with lip service.They were lying to him with their tongues.
37. Their hearts weren’t firmly set on him;they weren’t faithful to his covenant.
