Nehemiah 9:18-21
New King James Version
18 “Even (A)when they made a molded calf for themselves,
And said, ‘This is your god
That brought you up out of Egypt,’
And worked great provocations,
19 Yet in Your (B)manifold mercies
You did not forsake them in the wilderness.
The (C)pillar of the cloud did not depart from them by day,
To lead them on the road;
Nor the pillar of fire by night,
To show them light,
And the way they should go.
20 You also gave Your (D)good Spirit to instruct them,
And did not withhold Your (E)manna from their mouth,
And gave them (F)water for their thirst.
21 (G)Forty years You sustained them in the wilderness;
They lacked nothing;
Their (H)clothes did not wear out
And their feet did not swell.
Acts 7:42
New King James Version
42 Then (A)God turned and gave them up to worship (B)the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the Prophets:
(C)‘Did you offer Me slaughtered animals and sacrifices during forty years in the wilderness,
O house of Israel?
Acts 7:43
New King James Version
43 You also took up the tabernacle of Moloch,
And the star of your god Remphan,
Images which you made to worship;
And (A)I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
