16. He made streams come out of a rock.He made the water flow like rivers.
17. They continued to sin against him,to rebel in the desert against the Most High.
18. They deliberately tested God by demanding the food they craved.
19. They spoke against God by saying,“Can God prepare a banquet in the desert?
20. True, he did strike a rock,and water did gush out,and the streams did overflow.But can he also give us bread or provide us, his people, with meat?”
21. When the Lord heard this, he became furious.His fire burned against Jacoband his anger flared up at Israel
