but the angel of the Lord came back a second time, touched him, and said, “Get up and eat or the journey will be too much for you!”
He looked and there at his head was a hearth cake and a jug of water. After he ate and drank, he lay down again,
He got up, ate, and drank; then strengthened by that food, he walked forty days and forty nights to the mountain of God, Horeb.
May the bolts of your gates be iron and bronze; may your strength endure through all your days!
