Then the foreign rabble who were traveling with the Israelites began to crave the good things of Egypt. And the people of Israel also began to complain.“ Oh, for some meat!” they exclaimed.

You must not test the Lord your God as you did when you complained at Massah.

Nor should we put Christ to the test, as some of them did and then died from snakebites.

In the wilderness their desires ran wild, testing God’s patience in that dry wasteland.So he gave them what they asked for, but he sent a plague along with it.

There, too, the whole community of Israel complained about Moses and Aaron.“ If only the Lord had killed us back in Egypt,” they moaned.“ There we sat around pots filled with meat and ate all the bread we wanted. But now you have brought us into this wilderness to starve us all to death.”

These things happened as a warning to us, so that we would not crave evil things as they did,

You want what you don’t have, so you scheme and kill to get it. You are jealous of what others have, but you can’t get it, so you fight and wage war to take it away from them. Yet you don’t have what you want because you don’t ask God for it.And even when you ask, you don’t get it because your motives are all wrong— you want only what will give you pleasure.

For there your ancestors tested and tried my patience, even though they saw everything I did.
