Nehemiah 9:21-23
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
21 (A)Forty years in the desert you sustained them:
they did not want;
Their garments did not become worn,
and their feet did not swell.
22 (B)You gave them kingdoms and peoples,
which you divided among them as border lands.
They possessed the land of Sihon, king of Heshbon,
and the land of Og, king of Bashan.
23 (C)You made their children as numerous as the stars of the heavens,
and you brought them into the land
which you had commanded their ancestors to enter and possess.
