direction, keeping in the most fertile parts of the wilderness,
which were in the borders near the Red Sea.

ourselves and obtain food for our families.

me because of the loss of my bow, for we did obtain no food.

Lord.

complaining against the Lord their God.

myself with a bow and an arrow, with a sling and with stones.

had humbled themselves because of my words; for I did say many
things unto them in the energy of my soul.
