rsv Psalms:78:14-28 SEEK

*
He divided the sea and let them pass through it ,
and made the waters stand like a heap .
*
In the daytime he led them with a cloud ,
and all the night with a fiery light .
*
He cleft rocks in the wilderness ,
and gave them drink abundantly as from the deep .
*
He made streams come out of the rock ,
and caused waters to flow down like rivers .
*
Yet they sinned still more against him ,
rebelling against the Most High in the desert .
*
They tested God in their heart by demanding the food they craved .
*
They spoke against God ,
saying , "
Can God spread a table in the wilderness ?
*
He smote the rock so that water gushed out and streams overflowed .
Can he also give bread ,
or provide meat for his people ?"
*
Therefore ,
when the LORD heard ,
he was full of wrath ;
a fire was kindled against Jacob ,
his anger mounted against Israel ;
*
because they had no faith in God ,
and did not trust his saving power .
*
Yet he commanded the skies above ,
and opened the doors of heaven ;
*
and he rained down upon them manna to eat ,
and gave them the grain of heaven .
*
Man ate of the bread of the angels ;
he sent them food in abundance .
*
He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens ,
and by his power he led out the south wind ;
*
he rained flesh upon them like dust ,
winged birds like the sand of the seas ;
