Exodus 13:17-22
17Now when PharaohH6547 had letH7971 the peopleH5971 goH7971, GodH430 did not leadH5148 them by the wayH1870 of the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430, evenH3588 thoughH3588 it was nearH7138; for GodH430 saidH559, “1The peopleH5971 mightH6435 changeH5162 their mindsH5162 when they seeH7200 warH4421, and returnH7725 to EgyptH4714.”
18Therefore GodH430 ledH5437 the peopleH5971 aroundH5437 by wayH1870 of the wildernessH4057 to the 2RedH5488 SeaH3220; and the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 wentH5927 upH5927 3in battleH2571 formationH2571 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
19And MosesH4872 tookH3947 4the bonesH6106 of JosephH3130 with him, for he had made the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 solemnlyH7650 swearH7650, sayingH559, “GodH430 will certainlyH6485 5takeH6485 careH6485 ofH6485 you, and you shall carryH5927 my bonesH6106 from hereH2088 with you.”
20Then they setH5265 outH5265 from 6SuccothH5523 and campedH2583 in EthamH864, on the edgeH7097 of the wildernessH4057.
21And 7the LordH3068 was goingH1980 beforeH6440 them in a pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 by dayH3119 to leadH5148 them on the wayH1870, and in a pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915 to giveH215 them lightH215, so that they might 8travelH1980 by dayH3119 and by nightH3915.
229He 10did not takeH4185 awayH4185 the pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 by dayH3119, norH3808 the pillarH5982 of fireH784 by nightH3915, from the presenceH6440 of the peopleH5971.
