Deuteronomy 8:3-5

New International Reader's Version

³ He took your pride away. He let you go hungry. Then he gave you manna to eat. You and your parents had never even known anything about manna before. He tested you to teach you that man doesn’t live only on bread. He also lives on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. ⁴ Your clothes didn’t wear out during these 40 years. Your feet didn’t swell. ⁵ Here is what I want you to know in your hearts. The Lord your God guides you, just as parents guide their children.
