'God' in the Bible

They deliberately tested God,demanding the food they craved.

They spoke against God, saying,“Is God able to provide food in the wilderness?

because they did not believe Godor rely on His salvation.

When He killed some of them,the rest began to seek Him;they repented and searched for God.

They remembered that God was their rock,the Most High God, their Redeemer.

But they rebelliously tested the Most High God,for they did not keep His decrees.

God heard and became furious;He completely rejected Israel.

God of our salvation, help us—for the glory of Your name.Deliver us and atone for our sins,because of Your name.

Restore us, God;look on us with favor,and we will be saved.

Lord God of Hosts,how long will You be angrywith Your people’s prayers?

Restore us, God of Hosts;look on us with favor, and we will be saved.

Return, God of Hosts.Look down from heaven and see;take care of this vine,

Restore us, Yahweh, the God of Hosts;look on us with favor, and we will be saved.
