AnswerH6030 Me.4IndeedH3588, I 7broughtH5927 you up from the landH776 of EgyptH4714 And 8ransomedH6299 you from the houseH1004 of slaveryH5650, And I sentH7971 beforeH6440 you 9MosesH4872, AaronH175 and 10MiriamH4813.5My peopleH5971, rememberH2142 nowH4994 WhatH4100 11BalakH1111 kingH4428 of MoabH4124 counseledH3289 And whatH4100 BalaamH1109 sonH1121 of BeorH1160 answeredH6030 him, And from 12ShittimH7851 to 13GilgalH1537, SoH4616 14that you might knowH3045 the 15righteousH6666 actsH6666 of the LordH3068.”
