39 (A)He spread a cloud for a covering,
And fire to give light in the night.
40 (B)The people asked, and He brought quail,
And (C)satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 (D)He opened the rock, and water gushed out;
It ran in the dry places like a river.

42 For He remembered (E)His holy promise,
And Abraham His servant.
43 He brought out His people with joy,
His chosen ones with [a]gladness.
44 (F)He gave them the lands of the [b]Gentiles,
And they inherited the labor of the nations,
45 (G)That they might observe His statutes
And keep His laws.

[c]Praise the Lord!
