    15You provided bread from heaven for their hunger and brought water out of a rock for their thirst. You told them to go in and take possession of the land You had sworn to give them.

    16But they, our ancestors, acted arrogantly. They stiffened their necks and did not obey Your commandments.

    17They refused to listen and did not remember the wonders You performed among them. They stiffened their necks and appointed a leader to return to their slavery in Egypt. But You are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abundant in faithful love, and You did not abandon them.

    18Even when they made a molten calf for themselves and said, 'This is your god who brought you out of Egypt,' and they committed terrible blasphemies,

    20You gave Your good Spirit to instruct them. You did not withhold manna from their mouths, and You provided water for their thirst.
