while we did sojourn in the wilderness.

that they should be brought out of bondage.

after we had prepared all things,

much fruits and meat from the wilderness,

according to that which the Lord had commanded us,

and whatsoever thing we had brought with us,

every one according to his age;

wherefore, we did all go down into the ship, with our wives and our children.

they repented of the thing which they had done,

insomuch that they loosed me.

because of his loving kindness and his long-suffering towards the children of men.
