Deuteronomy 8:2-6

2And thou shalt rememberH2142 all the wayH1870 which Jehovah thy GodH430 hath led thee these fortyH705 yearsH8141 in the wildernessH4057, that he might humble thee, to prove thee, to knowH3045 what was in thy heartH3824, whether thou wouldest keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, or not.

3And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hungerH7456, and fed thee with mannaH4478, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathersH1 knowH3045; that he might makeH3045 thee knowH3045 that manH120 doth not liveH2421 by breadH3899 onlyH905, but by everythingH3605 that proceedeth out of the mouthH6310 of Jehovah doth manH120 liveH2421.

4Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy footH7272 swell, these fortyH705 yearsH8141.

5And thou shalt consider in thy heartH3824, that, as a manH376 chasteneth his sonH1121, so Jehovah thy GodH430 chasteneth thee.

6And thou shalt keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of Jehovah thy GodH430, to walk in his waysH1870, and to fearH3372 him.
