Psalms 78:18-28 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

18. And in their heart they put God to the test By asking food according to their desire.

19. Then they spoke against God; They said, "Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?

20. "Behold, He struck the rock so that waters gushed out, And streams were overflowing; Can He give bread also? Will He provide meat for His people?"

21. Therefore the Lord heard and was full of wrath; And a fire was kindled against Jacob And anger also mounted against Israel,

22. Because they did not believe in God And did not trust in His salvation.

23. Yet He commanded the clouds above And opened the doors of heaven;

24. He rained down manna upon them to eat And gave them food from heaven.

25. Man did eat the bread of angels; He sent them food in abundance.

26. He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens And by His power He directed the south wind.

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

28. Then He let them fall in the midst of their camp, Round about their dwellings.
