2 Esdras 1:16-21 World English Bible (WEB)

16. and you⌃ triumphed not in my name for the destruction of your enemies, but ever to this day do you⌃ yet murmur.

17. Where are the benefits that I have done for you? when you⌃ were hungry and thirsty in the wilderness, did you⌃ not cry to me,

18. saying, Why have you brought us into this wilderness to kill us? it had been better for us to have served the Egyptians, than to die in this wilderness.

19. I had pity upon your mournings, and gave you manna for food; you⌃ did eat angels’ bread.

20. Wnen you⌃ were thirsty, did I not cleave the rock, and waters flowed out to your fill? for the heat I covered you with the leaves of the trees.

21. I divided among you fruitful lands; I cast out the Canaanites, the Pherezites, and the Philistines, before you: what shall I yet do more for you? says the Lord.
