Psalms 78:19-35 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

19. Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?

20. Behold, he smote the rock, that waters gushed out, and streams overflowed; can he give bread also? will he provide flesh for his people?

21. Therefore the Lord heard, and was wroth: and a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also went up against Israel;

22. Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation.

23. Yet he commanded the skies above, and opened the doors of heaven;

24. And he rained down manna upon them to eat, and gave them of the corn of heaven.

25. Man did eat the bread of the mighty: he sent them meat to the full.

26. He caused the east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he guided the south wind.

27. He rained flesh also upon them as the dust, and winged fowl as the sand of the seas:

28. And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their habitations.

29. So they did eat, and were well filled; and he gave them that they lusted after.

30. They were not estranged from their lust, their meat was yet in their mouths,

31. When the anger of God went up against them, and slew of the fattest of them, and smote down the young men of Israel.

32. For all this they sinned still, and believed not in his wondrous works.

33. Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in terror.

34. When he slew them, then they inquired after him: and they returned and sought God early.

35. And they remembered that God was their rock, and the Most High God their redeemer.
