Psalms 78:26

24 He rained down manna for them to eat; He gave them grain from heaven.

25 Man ate the bread of angels; He sent them food in abundance.

He stirred the east wind from the heavens and drove the south wind by His might.

27 He rained meat on them like dust, and winged birds like the sand of the sea.

28 He felled them in the midst of their camp, all around their dwellings.
