Psalm 78:19

Lessons From Israel's Past

¹⁸ And in their heart they put God to the test
By asking food according to their desire.
¹⁹ Then they spoke against God;
They said, “Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?
²⁰ “Behold, He struck the rock so that waters gushed out,
And streams were overflowing;
Can He give bread also?
Will He provide meat for His people?”
