New English Translation
39 He spread out a cloud for a cover,[a]
and provided a fire to light up the night.
40 They asked for food,[b] and he sent quail;
he satisfied them with food from the sky.[c]
41 He opened up a rock and water flowed out;
a river ran through dry regions.
Footnotes
- Psalm 105:39 tn Or “curtain.”
- Psalm 105:40 tn Heb “he [i.e., his people] asked.” The singular form should probably be emended to a plural שָׁאֲלוּ (shaʾalu, “they asked”), the ו (vav) having fallen off by haplography (note the vav at the beginning of the following form).
- Psalm 105:40 tn Or “bread of heaven.” The reference is to manna (see Exod 16:4, 13-15).
