And which he established unto Jacob as a statute, unto Israel as an everlasting covenant:
| לאמר--לך אתן את-ארץ-כנען חבל נחלתכם | 11 |
Saying, “Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, as the portion of your inheritance.”

When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it;
| ויתהלכו מגוי אל-גוי מממלכה אל-עם אחר | 13 |
And when they wandered from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people:
| לא-הניח אדם לעשקם ויוכח עליהם מלכים | 14 |
He suffered no man to oppress them; yea, he reproved kings for their sake;
| אל-תגעו במשיחי ולנביאי אל-תרעו | 15 |
[Saying, ] “Touch not my anointed, and do my prophets no harm,”—
| ויקרא רעב על-הארץ כל-מטה-לחם שבר | 16 |

They forced into fetters his feet; in iron was his body put:
| עד-עת בא-דברו-- אמרת יהוה צרפתהו | 19 |
Until the time that his word came to pass, [when] the saying of the Lord had purified him.

The people asked, and he brought quails, and with heavenly bread he satisfied them.
| פתח צור ויזובו מים הלכו בציות נהר | 41 |
He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out: they ran in the dry places like a river.
| כי-זכר את-דבר קדשו את-אברהם עבדו | 42 |
For he remembered his holy word given to Abraham his servant.
| ויוצא עמו בששון ברנה את-בחיריו | 43 |
And he brought forth his people with gladness, with joyful song his elect.
| ויתן להם ארצות גוים ועמל לאמים יירשו | 44 |
And he gave them the lands of nations; and the labor of people they obtained as an inheritance:
| בעבור ישמרו חקיו-- ותורתיו ינצרו הללו-יה | 45 |
So that they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Hallelujah.
