  • Ezek 20:27-28 : 27 Therefore, speak unto the house of Israel, son of man, and thou hast said unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Still in this have your fathers reviled Me, In their committing against Me a trespass. 28 And I bring them in unto the land, That I did lift up My hand to give to them, And they see every high hill, and every thick tree, And they sacrifice there their sacrifices, And give there the provocation of their offering, And make there their sweet fragrance, And they pour out there their libations.

  • Ps 78:10-37 : 10 They have not kept the covenant of God, And in His law they have refused to walk, 11 And they forget His doings, And His wonders that He shewed them. 12 Before their fathers He hath done wonders, In the land of Egypt -- the field of Zoan. 13 He cleft a sea, and causeth them to pass over, Yea, He causeth waters to stand as a heap. 14 And leadeth them with a cloud by day, And all the night with a light of fire. 15 He cleaveth rocks in a wilderness, And giveth drink -- as the great deep. 16 And bringeth out streams from a rock, And causeth waters to come down as rivers. 17 And they add still to sin against Him, To provoke the Most High in the dry place. 18 And they try God in their heart, To ask food for their lust. 19 And they speak against God -- they said: `Is God able to array a table in a wilderness?' 20 Lo, He hath smitten a rock, And waters flow, yea, streams overflow. `Also -- bread `is' He able to give? Doth He prepare flesh for His people?' 21 Therefore hath Jehovah heard, And He sheweth Himself wroth, And fire hath been kindled against Jacob, And anger also hath gone up against Israel, 22 For they have not believed in God, Nor have they trusted in His salvation. 23 And He commandeth clouds from above, Yea, doors of the heavens He hath opened. 24 And He raineth on them manna to eat, Yea, corn of heaven He hath given to them. 25 Food of the mighty hath each eaten, Venison He sent to them to satiety. 26 He causeth an east wind to journey in the heavens, And leadeth by His strength a south wind, 27 And He raineth on them flesh as dust, And as sand of the seas -- winged fowl, 28 And causeth `it' to fall in the midst of His camp, Round about His tabernacles. 29 And they eat, and are greatly satisfied, And their desire He bringeth to them. 30 They have not been estranged from their desire, Yet `is' their food in their mouth, 31 And the anger of God hath gone up against them, And He slayeth among their fat ones, And youths of Israel He caused to bend. 32 With all this they have sinned again, And have not believed in His wonders. 33 And He consumeth in vanity their days, And their years in trouble. 34 If He slew them, then they sought Him, And turned back, and sought God earnestly, 35 And they remember that God `is' their rock, And God Most High their redeemer. 36 And -- they deceive Him with their mouth, And with their tongue do lie to Him, 37 And their heart hath not been right with Him, And they have not been stedfast in His covenant.
  • Ps 78:41 : 41 Yea, they turn back, and try God, And the Holy One of Israel have limited.
