New English Translation

Psalms 78:10-20 New English Translation (NET)

10. They did not keep their covenant with God,and they refused to obey his law.

11. They forgot what he had done,the amazing things he had shown them.

12. He did amazing things in the sight of their ancestors,in the land of Egypt, in the region of Zoan.

13. He divided the sea and led them across it;he made the water stand in a heap.

14. He led them with a cloud by day,and with the light of a fire all night long.

15. He broke open rocks in the wilderness,and gave them enough water to fill the depths of the sea.

16. He caused streams to flow from the rock,and made the water flow like rivers.

17. Yet they continued to sin against him,and rebelled against the sovereign One in the desert.

18. They willfully challenged Godby asking for food to satisfy their appetite.

19. They insulted God, saying,“Is God really able to give us food in the wilderness?

20. Yes, he struck a rock and water flowed out,streams gushed forth.But can he also give us food?Will he provide meat for his people?”
