Psalms 78:19-28
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 78
19Then they spoke against God; They said, 'Can God prepare a table in the wilderness? 20Behold, He struck the rock so that waters gushed out, And streams were overflowing; Can He also provide bread? Will He prepare meat for His people?' 21Therefore the Lord heard and was full of wrath; And a fire was kindled against Jacob, And anger also mounted against Israel, 22Because they did not believe in God And did not trust in His salvation. 23Yet He commanded the clouds above And opened the doors of heaven; 24He rained down manna upon them to eat, And gave them food from heaven. 25Man ate the bread of angels; He sent them food in abundance. 26He made the east wind blow in the sky And by His power He directed the south wind. 27When He rained meat upon them like the dust, Even winged fowl like the sand of the seas, 28He let them fall in the midst of their camp, All around their dwellings.King James Version

Chapter 78
19They spoke against God, saying, "Is God able to provide food in the wilderness? 20Look! He struck the rock and water gushed out; torrents overflowed. But can he also provide bread or furnish meat for his people?" 21Therefore, the Lord heard and became furious; then fire broke out against Jacob, and anger flared up against Israel 22because they did not believe God or rely on his salvation. 23He gave a command to the clouds above and opened the doors of heaven. 24He rained manna for them to eat; he gave them grain from heaven. 25People ate the bread of angels. He sent them an abundant supply of food. 26He made the east wind blow in the skies and drove the south wind by his might. 27He rained meat on them like dust, and winged birds like the sand of the seas. 28He made them fall in the camp, all around the tents.New Living Translation
Chapter 78
19They even spoke against God himself, saying, 'God can’t give us food in the wilderness. 20Yes, he can strike a rock so water gushes out, but he can’t give his people bread and meat.' 21When the Lord heard them, he was furious. The fire of his wrath burned against Jacob. Yes, his anger rose against Israel, 22for they did not believe God or trust him to care for them. 23But he commanded the skies to open; he opened the doors of heaven. 24He rained down manna for them to eat; he gave them bread from heaven. 25They ate the food of angels! God gave them all they could hold. 26He released the east wind in the heavens and guided the south wind by his mighty power. 27He rained down meat as thick as dust — birds as plentiful as the sand on the seashore! 28He caused the birds to fall within their camp and all around their tents.English Standard Version
Chapter 78
19They spoke against God, saying, "Can God spread a table in the wilderness? 20 He struck the rock so that water gushed out and streams overflowed. Can he also give bread or provide meat for his people?" 21Therefore, when the Lord heard, he was full of wrath; a fire was kindled against Jacob; his anger rose against Israel, 22because they did not believe in God and did not trust his saving power. 23Yet he commanded the skies above and opened the doors of heaven, 24and he rained down on them manna to eat and gave them the grain of heaven. 25Man ate of the bread of the angels; he sent them food in abundance. 26He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens, and by his power he led out the south wind; 27he rained meat on them like dust, winged birds like the sand of the seas; 28he let them fall in the midst of their camp, all around their dwellings.New International Version
Chapter 78
19They spoke against God; they said, "Can God really spread a table in the wilderness? 20True, he struck the rock, and water gushed out, streams flowed abundantly, but can he also give us bread? Can he supply meat for his people?" 21When the Lord heard them, he was furious; his fire broke out against Jacob, and his wrath rose against Israel, 22for they did not believe in God or trust in his deliverance. 23Yet he gave a command to the skies above and opened the doors of the heavens; 24he rained down manna for the people to eat, he gave them the grain of heaven. 25Human beings ate the bread of angels; he sent them all the food they could eat. 26He let loose the east wind from the heavens and by his power made the south wind blow. 27He rained meat down on them like dust, birds like sand on the seashore. 28He made them come down inside their camp, all around their tents.New King James Version
