23 Yet He commanded the clouds above
And (A)opened the doors of heaven;
24 He (B)rained down manna upon them to eat
And gave them [a](C)food from heaven.
25 Man did eat the bread of [b]angels;
He sent them [c]food [d](D)in abundance.
26 He (E)caused the east wind to blow in the heavens
And by His [e]power He directed the south wind.
27 When He rained [f]meat upon them like the dust,
Even (F)winged fowl like the sand of the seas,
28 Then He let them fall in the midst of [g]their camp,
Round about their dwellings.
29 So they (G)ate and were well filled,
And their desire He gave to them.
