He asked You for life, and You gave it to him—length of days forever and ever.

The Lord gave the command;a great company of women brought the good news:

Instead, they gave me gall for my food,and for my thirstthey gave me vinegar to drink.

He split rocks in the wildernessand gave them drink as abundant as the depths.

He gave a command to the clouds aboveand opened the doors of heaven.

He rained manna for them to eat;He gave them grain from heaven.

They ate and were completely satisfied,for He gave them what they craved.

He gave their crops to the caterpillarand the fruit of their labor to the locust.

He gave up His strength to captivityand His splendor to the hand of a foe.

He beat back His foes;He gave them lasting shame.

They gave the corpses of Your servantsto the birds of the sky for food,the flesh of Your godly onesto the beasts of the earth.

You fed them the bread of tearsand gave them a full measureof tears to drink.

So I gave them over to their stubborn heartsto follow their own plans.

Before the mountains were born,before You gave birth to the earth and the world,from eternity to eternity, You are God.

He spoke to them in a pillar of cloud;they kept His decrees and the statutes He gave them.

He gave them hail for rain,and lightning throughout their land.

He spread a cloud as a coveringand gave a fire to light up the night.

He gave them the lands of the nations,and they inheritedwhat other peoples had worked for.

He gave them what they asked for,but sent a wasting disease among them.

He gave their land as an inheritance,an inheritance to His people Israel.

and gave their land as an inheritance,        His love is eternal.

He set them in position forever and ever;He gave an order that will never pass away.
