⁴ Then the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I am about to rain ^(A)bread from heaven for you, and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may ^(B)test them, whether they will walk in my law or not.

² And you shall remember the whole way that the Lord your God has led you ^(A)these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, ^(B)testing you ^(C)to know what was in your heart, ^(D)whether you would keep his commandments or not.

¹⁶ who fed you in the wilderness with ^(A)manna that your fathers did not know, that he might humble you and test you, ^(B)to do you good in the end.

²² in order ^(A)to test Israel by them, whether they will take care to walk in the way of the Lord as their fathers did, or not.”

3 ^(A)Now these are the nations that the Lord left, to test Israel by them, that is, all in Israel who had not experienced all the wars in Canaan.
