Deuteronomy 8:2-4

International Standard Version

² Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way these 40 years in the desert to humble^[a] and test you in order to make known what was in your heart—whether or not you would keep his commands. ³ He humbled^[b] you, causing you to be hungry, yet he fed you with manna that neither you nor your ancestors had known, in order to teach you that human beings are not to live by food alone—instead human beings are to live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord.

⁴ “The clothes you wore^[c] did not wear out, nor did your feet blister during these 40 years.
