MKJV(i)
17 And they sinned still more against Him, by provoking the Most High in the wilderness.
18 And they tempted God in their heart by asking food for their lust.
19 And they spoke against God; they said, Can God set a table in the wilderness?
20 Behold! He struck the rock so that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed. Can He also give bread? Can He provide flesh for His people?
21 Therefore Jehovah heard, and was made furious; so a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel,
22 because they did not believe in God, and did not trust in His salvation;
23 though He had commanded the clouds from above, and had opened the doors of the heavens;
24 and had rained down manna on them to eat, and He gave them of the grain of the heavens.
25 Man ate the food of the mighty; He sent them meat to the full.
26 He caused an east wind to blow in the sky; and by His power He brought in the south wind.
27 and He also rained flesh on them like dust, and winged birds like the sand of the sea;
28 and He let them fall in the middle of their camp, all around their tents.
29 So they ate, and were filled to the full; for He gave them their own desire.
30 They were not turned away from their lust, but while their food was still in their mouths,
31 the wrath of God came on them and killed the fattest of them, and struck down the chosen of Israel.
32 For all this they still sinned, and did not believe because of His wonderful works.
33 Therefore He ended their days in vanity and their years in trouble.
34 When He killed them, then they looked for Him; and they turned back and sought after God.
35 And they remembered that God was their rock, and the Most High God was their redeemer.
36 But they flattered Him with their mouths, and they lied to Him with their tongues.
37 For their heart was not right with Him, neither were they faithful in His covenant.
38 But He, full of pity, forgave their iniquity, and did not destroy them; yea, many times He turned His anger away, and did not stir up all His wrath.
39 For He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passes away and does not come again.
40 How often they provoked Him in the wilderness, and grieved Him in the desert!
41 Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and pained the Holy One of Israel.
42 They did not remember His hand, the day when He delivered them from the enemy;
