17. And they add still to sin against Him, To provoke the Most High in the dry place.
18. And they try God in their heart, To ask food for their lust.
19. And they speak against God--they said: `Is God able to array a table in a wilderness?'
20. Lo, He hath smitten a rock, And waters flow, yea, streams overflow. `Also--bread [is] He able to give? Doth He prepare flesh for His people?'
21. Therefore hath Jehovah heard, And He sheweth Himself wroth, And fire hath been kindled against Jacob, And anger also hath gone up against Israel,
22. For they have not believed in God, Nor have they trusted in His salvation.
23. And He commandeth clouds from above, Yea, doors of the heavens He hath opened.
24. And He raineth on them manna to eat, Yea, corn of heaven He hath given to them.
