I spoke to you at that time, saying, "I am not able to bear you myself alone:

How can I myself alone bear your encumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?

"Let me pass through your land: I will go along by the highway, I will turn neither to the right hand nor to the left.

let me alone, that I may destroy them, and blot out their name from under the sky; and I will make of you a nation mightier and greater than they."

Yahweh alone led him. There was no foreign god with him.

Israel dwells in safety; the fountain of Jacob alone, In a land of grain and new wine. Yes, his heavens drop down dew.
