Deuteronomy 8:3

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.

And he humbled {H6031} thee, and suffered thee to hunger {H7456}, and fed {H398} thee with manna {H4478}, which thou knewest {H3045} not, neither did thy fathers {H1} know {H3045}; that he might make thee know {H3045} that man {H120} doth not live {H2421} by bread {H3899} only {H905}, but by every word that proceedeth {H4161} out of the mouth {H6310} of the LORD {H3068} doth man {H120} live {H2421}.

He humbled you, allowing you to become hungry, and then fed you with man, which neither you nor your ancestors had ever known, to make you understand that a person does not live on food alone but on everything that comes from the mouth of ADONAI.

He humbled you, and in your hunger He gave you manna to eat, which neither you nor your fathers had known, so that you might understand that man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes 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 everything that proceedeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live.
