Nehemiah 9:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 Thou didst also feed them forty years in the wilderness: they lacked nothing: (A)their clothes waxed not old, and their feet [a]swelled not.
22 And thou gavest them kingdoms and people, and [b]scatteredst them into corners: so they possessed (B)the land of Sihon, and the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.
23 And thou didst multiply their children like the stars of the heaven, and broughtest them into the land, whereof thou hadst spoken unto their fathers, that they should go, and possess it.
