The Israelites Receive Manna
20 Instead of these things thou didst give thy people food of angels,
and without their toil thou didst supply them from heaven with bread ready to eat,

21 For thy sustenance manifested thy sweetness toward thy children;
and the bread, ministering[a] to the desire of the one who took it,
was changed to suit every one’s liking.
