26. He made the east wind blow from the heavens. By his power he caused the south wind to blow.
27. He rained meat down on them like dust. He sent them birds like sand on the seashore.
28. He made the birds come down inside their camp. The birds fell all around their tents.
29. People ate until they had more than enough. He gave them what they had longed for.
30. But even before they had finished eating, God acted. He did it while the food was still in their mouths.
31. His anger rose up against them. He put to death the strongest among them. He struck down Israel's young men.
32. But even after all that, they kept on sinning. Even after they had seen the miracles he did, they still didn't believe.
33. So he brought their days to an end like a puff of smoke. He ended their years with terror.
34. Every time God killed some of them, the others would look to him. They gladly turned back to him again.
35. They remembered that God was their Rock. They remembered that God Most High had set them free.
36. But they didn't mean it when they praised him. They lied to him when they spoke.
