Nehemiah 9:20 in Context — Nehemiah 9

18 même quand ils se firent un veau en fonte et dirent: Voici ton Dieu qui t’a fait sortir d’Égypte, et qu’ils se livrèrent envers toi à de grands outrages.

19 Dans ton immense miséricorde, tu ne les abandonnas pas au désert, et la colonne de nuée ne cessa point de les guider le jour dans leur chemin, ni la colonne de feu de les éclairer la nuit dans le chemin qu’ils avaient à suivre.

20 Tu leur donnas ton bon esprit pour les rendre sages, tu ne refusas point ta manne à leur bouche, et tu leur fournis de l’eau pour leur soif.

21 Pendant quarante ans, tu pourvus à leur entretien dans le désert, et ils ne manquèrent de rien, leurs vêtements ne s’usèrent point, et leurs pieds ne s’enflèrent point.

22 Tu leur livras des royaumes et des peuples, dont tu partageas entre eux les contrées, et ils possédèrent le pays de Sihon, roi de Hesbon, et le pays d’Og, roi de Basan.
