Psalms 78:24-39 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

24. and rained down on them manna to eat and gave them the grain of heaven.

25. Humankind ate the bread of angels. He sent them food enough to be satisfied.

26. He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens and drove along the south wind by his strength.

27. Then he rained meat on them like dust, even winged birds like the sand of the seas.

28. He caused them to fall in the midst of his camp, all around his dwellings.

29. So they ate and were well filled, and he brought about what they craved.

30. They had not yet turned aside from their craving, while their food was still in their mouth,

31. the anger of God rose against them, and he killed some of the stoutest of them, even the young men of Israel he caused to bow down in death.

32. In spite of all this they sinned further and did not believe his wonders.

33. And he consumed their days with futility their years with terror.

34. When he killed some of them, then they sought him, and repented and earnestly sought God.

35. And they remembered that God was their rock, and God Most High their redeemer.

36. But they enticed him with their mouth and lied to him with their tongue.

37. For their heart was not steadfast with him, nor were they faithful to his covenant.

38. But he was compassionate; he pardoned their guilt and did not destroy them. And many times he turned back his anger and did not stir up all his wrath,

39. for he remembered that they were flesh, a passing wind that does not return.
