Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 8 of Deuteronomy. Moses interprets the forty years in the wilderness as a period of testing and formation. Hunger, manna, and daily dependence taught Israel that life is sustained not only by food but by the word of God. Entering a fertile land must not cause Israel to forget the lessons learned during scarcity.

Deine Kleider sind nicht veraltet an dir, und deine Füße sind nicht geschwollen diese vierzig Jahre.
Tu vestido nunca se envejeció sobre ti, ni el pie se te ha hinchado por estos cuarenta años.
Ton vêtement ne s'est point usé sur toi, et ton pied ne s'est point enflé, pendant ces quarante années.
Il tuo vestimento non ti si è logorato addosso; e il tuo piè non si è calterito in questi quarant’anni.
Nunca se envelheceu a tua roupa sobre ti, nem se inchou o teu pé nestes quarenta anos.
這四十年,你身上的衣服沒有穿破,你的腳也沒有腫。
