18 They deliberately put God to the testby demanding the food they wanted.
19 They spoke against God and said,“Can God supply food in the desert?
20 It is true that he struck the rock,and water flowed out in a torrent;but can he also provide us with breadand give his people meat?”
21 And so the Lord was angry when he heard them;he attacked his people with fire,and his anger against them grew,
22 because they had no faith in himand did not believe that he would save them.
23 But he spoke to the sky aboveand commanded its doors to open;
24 he gave them grain from heaven,by sending down manna for them to eat.
