Thou didst lead, like a flock, thy people, By the hand of Moses and Aaron.

So God took the people round the desert-way of the Red Sea, - and the sons of Israel went up armed, out of the land of Egypt.

And Moses caused Israel to break up from the Red Sea, and they went out into the desert of Shur, - and journeyed three days in the desert and found no water;

but at the bidding of the upgoings of the cloud from off the tent, then, after that, the sons of Israel set forward, - and in the place where the cloud abode, there the sons of Israel encamped:

So then, thou shalt remember all the way in which Yahweh thy God caused thee to journey these forty years in the desert, - that he might humble time to put thee to the proof to know what was in thy heart, - whether thou wouldest keep his commandments or not.

And, in a pillar of cloud, didst thou lead them, by day, - and in a pillar of fire, by night, to light up for them the way wherein they should go.

They shall neither hunger, nor thirst, Nor shall smite them the glowing sand, or the glaring sun, - For, he that hath compassion upon them, will lead them, And unto springs of water, will he conduct them.

Then were recalled the days of the age-past time Moses - his people: - Where is he that led them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he that put within him his Holy Spirit?
