5Yea, he established a testimony in Jacob, and instituted a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children:
6In order that the latest generation might know them, even the children that are to be born; that they may arise and relate them to their children;
7That they may place in God their hope, and not forget the doings of God, but observe his commandments;
8And that they may not be like their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation that had not directed their heart firmly, and whose spirit was not faithful to God.
9The children of Ephraim, like well-armed archers, that turn round on the day of battle,
10Kept not the covenant of God, and in his law they refused to walk;
11And they forgot his deeds, as also his wonders, which he had permitted them to see.
12In the presence of their fathers did he do wonders, in the land of Egypt, in the fields of Zo'an.
13He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the waters stand upright as a wall.
14And he led them with the cloud by day, and all the night with a light of fire.
15He split rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of the mighty deep.
16And he brought forth running streams out of the rock, and caused water to run down like rivers.
17But they repeated to sin yet more against him, rebelling against the Most High in the desert.
18And they tempted God in their heart, by asking food for their desire.
19Yea, they spoke against God: they said, Will God be able to set in order a table in the wilderness?
20Behold, he smote the rock, so that waters gushed out, and streams overflowed: shall he also be able to give bread? or can he provide flesh for his people?
21Therefore, when the Lord heard this, he became wroth: and a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also ascended against Israel,
22Because they had not believed in God, and had not trusted in his salvation.
23Then he ordained the skies from above, and the doors of heaven he opened;
24And he let rain down upon them manna to eat, and the corn of heaven gave he unto them.
25Angels' bread did man eat: he sent them provision to satisfaction.
26He caused an east wind to pass along the heavens; and he led forth by his strength the south wind.
27And he let rain upon them flesh as plentiful as the dust, and winged birds like the sand of the sea;
28And he let them fall in the midst of their camp, round about their habitations.
