Bible verse
You led them with a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night, to light for them the way in which they should travel.
Nehemiah 9:12 · BSB
The verses around it, from Nehemiah 9.
8 You found his heart faithful before You, and made a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites and Hittites, of the Amorites and Perizzites, of the Jebusites and Girgashites—to give it to his descendants. You have kept Your promise, because You are righteous.
9 You saw the affliction of our fathers in Egypt; You heard their cry at the Red Sea.
10 You performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh, all his officials, and all the people of his land, for You knew they had acted with arrogance against our fathers. You made a name for Yourself that endures to this day.
11 You divided the sea before them, and they crossed through it on dry ground. You hurled their pursuers into the depths like a stone into raging waters.
12 You led them with a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night, to light for them the way in which they should travel.
13 You came down on Mount Sinai and spoke with them from heaven. You gave them just ordinances, true laws, and good statutes and commandments.
14 You revealed to them Your holy Sabbath and gave them commandments and statutes and laws through Your servant Moses.
15 In their hunger You gave them bread from heaven; in their thirst You brought them water from the rock. You told them to go in and possess the land which You had sworn to give them.
16 But they and our fathers became arrogant and stiff-necked and did not obey Your commandments.
