He brought you low, allowing you to suffer from hunger. He then fed you with manna, something with which your fathers were not familiar, so that you might come to know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by every word that comes forth from the mouth of the Lord. | And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live. |
Thus you could understand that the Lord, your God, was disciplining you, just like a father disciplines his son. | Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee. |
Therefore, observe the commandments of the Lord, your God. Walk in his ways and fear him. | Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him. |
