Psalms [Praises] 78:14-28

¹⁴In the daytime he also led them with a cloud, and all night with a light of fire.

¹⁵He split rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink abundantly as out of the depths.

¹⁶He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers.

¹⁷Yet they still went on to sin against him, to rebel against haElyon the Most High in the desert.

¹⁸They tempted God in their heart by asking food according to their desire.

¹⁹Yes, they spoke against God. They said, “Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?

²⁰Behold, he struck the rock, so that waters gushed out, and streams overflowed. Can he give bread also? Will he provide meat for his people?”

²¹Therefore Adonai sh'ma ·heard obeyed·, and was angry. A fire was kindled against Jacob Supplanter, anger also went up against Israel God prevails,

²²because they didn’t believe in God, and didn’t trust in his yishu'ah ·salvation·.

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

²⁴He rained down manna ·what is it· on them to eat, and gave them food from the sky.

²⁵Man ate the bread of angels. He sent them food to the full.

²⁶He caused the east wind to blow in the sky. By his power he guided the south wind.

²⁷He rained also meat on them as the dust; winged birds as the sand of the seas.

²⁸He let them fall in the middle of their camp, around their habitations.
