Psalms 78:12

Compare all

10 ^aThey did not keep the covenant of God;
They refused to walk in His law,

11 And ^aforgot His works
And His wonders that He had shown them.

12 ^aMarvelous things He did in the sight of their fathers,
In the land of Egypt, ^bin the field of Zoan.

13 ^aHe divided the sea and caused them to pass through;
And ^bHe made the waters stand up like a heap.

14 ^aIn the daytime also He led them with the cloud,
And all the night with a light of fire.

15 ^aHe split the rocks in the wilderness,
And gave them drink in abundance like the depths.

16 He also brought ^astreams out of the rock,
And caused waters to run down like rivers.

17 But they sinned even more against Him
By ^arebelling against the Most High in the wilderness.

18 And ^athey tested God in their heart
By asking for the food of their fancy.

19 ^aYes, they spoke against God:
They said, “Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?

20 ^aBehold, He struck the rock,
So that the waters gushed out,
And the streams overflowed.
Can He give bread also?
Can He provide meat for His people?”

21 Therefore the Lord heard this and ^awas furious;
So a fire was kindled against Jacob,
And anger also came up against Israel,

22 Because they ^adid not believe in God,
And did not trust in His salvation.

23 Yet He had commanded the clouds above,
^aAnd opened the doors of heaven,

24 ^aHad rained down manna on them to eat,
And given them of the¹ bread of ^bheaven.
