19:078:015 He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of the great depths. 19:078:016 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers. 19:078:017 And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in the wilderness. 19:078:018 And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust. 19:078:019 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness? 19:078:020 Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people? 19:078:021 Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel; 19:078:022 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation: 19:078:023 Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of heaven, 19:078:024 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the corn of heaven. 19:078:025 Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full. 19:078:026 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he brought in the south wind. 19:078:027 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as the sand of the sea: 19:078:028 And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their habitations. 19:078:029 So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own desire; 19:078:030 They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat was yet in their mouths, 19:078:031 The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and smote down the chosen men of Israel. 19:078:032 For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his wondrous works. 19:078:033 Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in trouble. 19:078:034 When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and enquired early after God. 19:078:035 And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high God their redeemer. 19:078:036 Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied unto him with their tongues. 19:078:037 For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in his covenant. 19:078:038 But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did not stir up all his wrath. 19:078:039 For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again. 19:078:040 How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in the desert!
