And when Pharaoh H6547 drew near, H7126 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 lifted H5375 up their eyes, H5869 and, behold, H2009 the Egyptians H4714 marched H5265 after H310 them; and they were sore H3966 afraid: H3372 and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H6817 out to the LORD. H3068

And Moses H4872 cried H6817 to the LORD, H3068 saying, H559 What H4100 shall I do H6213 to this H2088 people? H5971 they be almost H4592 ready H5750 to stone H5619 me.

And call H7121 on me in the day H3117 of trouble: H6869 I will deliver H2502 you, and you shall glorify H3513 me.

He shall call H7121 on me, and I will answer H6030 him: I will be with him in trouble; H6869 I will deliver H2502 him, and honor H3519 him.

Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 among his priests, H3548 and Samuel H8050 among them that call H7121 on his name; H8034 they called H7121 on the LORD, H3068 and he answered H6030 them.

Then said H559 the LORD H3068 to me, Though H518 Moses H4872 and Samuel H8050 stood H5975 before H6440 me, yet my mind H5315 could not be toward H413 this H2088 people: H5971 cast H7971 them out of my sight, H6440 and let them go H3318 forth. H3318

And he went H3318 forth H3318 to the spring H4161 of the waters, H4325 and cast H7993 the salt H4417 in there, H8033 and said, H559 Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD, H3068 I have healed H7495 these H428 waters; H4325 there H8033 shall not be from there any more H5750 death H4194 or barren H7921 land.

But he said, H559 Then bring H3947 meal. H7058 And he cast H7993 it into H413 the pot; H5518 and he said, H559 Pour H3332 out for the people, H5971 that they may eat. H398 And there was no H3808 harm H1697 H7451 in the pot. H5518

For the preaching G3056 of the cross G4716 is to them that perish G622 foolishness; G3472 but to us which are saved G4982 it is the power G1411 of God. G2316

And the people H5971 said H559 to Joshua, H3091 No; H3808 but we will serve H5647 the LORD. H3068

Now H6258 therefore put H5493 away, H5493 said he, the strange H5236 gods H430 which H834 are among H7130 you, and incline H5186 your heart H3824 to the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel. H3478

So Joshua H3091 made H3772 a covenant H1285 with the people H5971 that day, H3117 and set H7760 them a statute H2706 and an ordinance H4941 in Shechem. H7927

Then said H559 the LORD H3068 to Moses, H4872 Behold, H2005 I will rain H4305 bread H3899 from heaven H8064 for you; and the people H5971 shall go H3318 out and gather H3950 a certain H1697 rate H1697 every day, H3117 that I may prove H5254 them, whether they will walk H3212 in my law, H8451 or no. H3808

And you shall remember H2142 all H3605 the way H1870 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 led H3212 you these H2088 forty H705 years H8141 in the wilderness, H4057 to humble H6031 you, and to prove H5254 you, to know H3045 what H853 H834 was in your heart, H3824 whether you would keep H8104 his commandments, H4687 or no. H3808

Who fed H398 you in the wilderness H4057 with manna, H4478 which H834 your fathers H1 knew H3045 not, that he might humble H6031 you, and that he might prove H5254 you, to do you good H3190 at your latter H319 end;

You shall not listen H8085 to the words H1697 of that prophet, H5030 or H176 that dreamer H2492 of dreams: H2472 for the LORD H3068 your God H430 proves H5254 you, to know H3045 whether you love H157 the LORD H3068 your God H430 with all H3605 your heart H3824 and with all H3605 your soul. H5315

That through them I may prove H5254 Israel, H3478 whether they will keep H8104 the way H1870 of the LORD H3068 to walk H3212 therein, as their fathers H1 did keep H8104 it, or not.

Now these H428 are the nations H1471 which H834 the LORD H3068 left, H5117 to prove H5254 Israel H3478 by them, even as many of Israel as had not known H3045 all H3605 the wars H4421 of Canaan; H3667

And they were to prove H5254 Israel H3478 by them, to know H3045 whether they would listen H8085 to the commandments H4687 of the LORD, H3068 which H834 he commanded H6680 their fathers H1 by the hand H3027 of Moses. H4872

For you, O God, H430 have proved H974 us: you have tried H6884 us, as silver H3701 is tried. H6884

You called H7121 in trouble, H6869 and I delivered H2502 you; I answered H6030 you in the secret H5643 place of thunder: H7482 I proved H974 you at H5291 the waters H4325 of Meribah. H4809 Selah. H5542

The fining H4715 pot H4715 is for silver, H3701 and the furnace H3564 for gold: H2091 but the LORD H3068 tries H974 the hearts. H3826

Therefore H3651 thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 Behold, H2005 I will melt H6884 them, and try H974 them; for how H349 shall I do H6213 for the daughter H1323 of my people? H5971

Wherein G1722 G3757 you greatly rejoice, G21 though now G737 for a season, G3641 if G1487 need G1163 be, you are in heaviness G3076 through G1722 manifold G4164 temptations: G3986

That the trial G1383 of your G5216 faith, G4102 being G1096 much G4183 more precious G5093 than of gold G5553 that perishes, G622 though it be tried G1381 with fire, G4442 might be found G2147 to praise G1868 and honor G5092 and glory G1391 at G1722 the appearing G602 of Jesus G2424 Christ: G5547
