yet you in your manifold mercies did not forsake them in the wilderness: the pillar of cloud did not depart from over them by day, to lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to show them light, and the way in which they should go.

They lacked nothing. Their clothes did not grow old, and their feet did not swell. Moreover you gave them kingdoms and peoples, which you allotted according to their portions.
