15. He struck the rock in the wilderness: and gave them to drink, as out of the great deep.
16. He brought forth water out of the rock: and made streams run down as rivers.
17. And they added yet more sin against him: they provoked the most High to wrath in the place without water.
18. And they tempted God in their hearts, by asking meat for their desires.
19. And they spoke ill of God: they said: Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?
20. Because he struck the rock, and the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed. Can he also give bread, or provide a table for his people?
21. Therefore the Lord heard, and was angry: and a fire was kindled against Jacob, and wrath came up against Israel.
22. Because they believed not in God: and trusted not in his salvation.
23. And he had commanded the clouds from above, and had opened the doors of heaven.
24. And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them the bread of heaven.
