19 They spoke against God. They said, "Can God put food on a table in the desert?
20 When he struck the rock, streams of water poured out. Huge amounts of water flowed down. But can he also give us food? Can he supply meat for his people?"
21 When the Lord heard what they said, he was very angry. His anger broke out like fire against the people of Jacob. He became very angry with Israel.
22 That was because they didn't believe in God. They didn't trust in his power to save them.
23 But he gave a command to the skies above. He opened the doors of the heavens.
24 He rained down manna for the people to eat. He gave them the grain of heaven.
25 Mere men ate the bread of angels. He sent them all of the food they could eat.
