They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way, they found no city of habitation; Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them: Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses, And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. Psalms 107:4-7
And thou leddest them in the day by a pillar of cloud, and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way wherein they should go. And thou camest down on mount Sinai, and didst speak with them from the heavens, and gavest them right judgments and true laws, good statutes and commandments. And thou madest known unto them thy holy sabbath, and prescribedst for them commandments and statutes and a law, through Moses thy servant. And thou gavest them bread from the heavens for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and didst say to them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst sworn to give them. Nehemiah 9:12-15
