But thou, Lord , in thy many mercies leftest, or forsookest , not them in desert; for a pillar of cloud went not away from them by the day, that it should lead them into the way whither they were to go ; and the pillar of fire went not away from them by night, that it should show to them the way, by which they should enter.
And thou gavest to them thy good Spirit, that taught them; and thou forbadest not thine angel’s meat, or thy manna , from their mouths, and thou gavest to them water in their thirst.
Forty years thou feddest them in desert, and nothing failed to them; their clothes waxed not eld, and their feet were not hurt, or swollen .
