Wisdom 18:3
You provided your people with a fiery pillar to lead them on their way on the unknown journey. That pillar was like a sun, and yet that sun didn’t hurt them during their long journey to a foreign land.
Therefore they received a burning pillar of fire for a guide of the way which they knew not, and thou gavest them a harmless sun of a good entertainment.
Then you guided your people as they traveled through a country they did not know. You guided them with a pillar of fire. It was like a sun that would not harm them on that glorious journey.
Instead of this, you furnished the flaming pillar, a guide on the unknown way, and the mild sun for an honorable migration.
Instead of darkness, you provided for your people a pillar of fire to guide them on their unfamiliar journey, and a gentle sun for their glorious pilgrimage.
Therefore you provided a flaming pillar of fire as a guide for your people’s unknown journey, and a harmless sun for their glorious wandering.
Therefore you provided a flaming pillar of fire as a guide for your people’s unknown journey, and a harmless sun for their glorious wandering.

For which thing they had a burning pillar of fire, the leader of (the) unknown way; and thou gavest the sun, without hurting of good harbour.
