Deuteronomy 8:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ He led you through the large and terrible desert. It was dry and had no water. It had poisonous snakes and stinging insects. He gave you water from a solid rock. ¹⁶ He gave you manna to eat in the desert. Manna was something your ancestors had never seen. He did this to take away your pride and to test you. He did it so things would go well for you in the end. ¹⁷ You might say to yourself, “I am rich because of my own strength and power.”
