Exodus:13:17-15
asv@Exodus:13:17 @And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt:
asv@Exodus:13:18 @but God led the people about, by the way of the wilderness by the Red Sea: and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.
asv@Exodus:13:19 @And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.
asv@Exodus:13:20 @And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
asv@Exodus:13:21 @And Jehovah went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light, that they might go by day and by night:
asv@Exodus:13:22 @the pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night, departed not from before the people.
