ISV(i)
18 To test God was in their minds, when they demanded food to satisfy their cravings.
19 They spoke against God by asking, “Is God able to prepare a feast in the desert?
20 It’s true that Moses struck the rock so that water flowed forth and torrents of water gushed out, but is he also able to give bread or to supply meat for his people?”
21 Therefore, when the LORD heard this, he was angry, and fire broke out against Jacob. Moreover, his anger flared against Israel,
22 because they didn’t believe in God and didn’t trust in his deliverance.
23 Yet he commanded the skies above and the doors of the heavens to open,
24 so that manna rained down on them for food and he sent them the grain of heaven.
25 Mortal men ate the food of angels; he sent provision to them in abundance.
26 He stirred up the east wind in the heavens and drove the south wind by his might.
27 He caused meat to rain on them like dust and winged birds as the sand of the sea.
28 He caused these to fall in the middle of the camp and all around their tents.
29 So they ate and were very satisfied, because he granted their desire.
30 However, before they had fulfilled their desire, while their food was still in their mouths,
31 the anger of God flared against them, and he killed the strongest men and humbled Israel’s young men.
