7 He spoke unto them in the pillar of cloud: they kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.
7He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: They kept his testimonies, And the statute that he gave them.

8 Jehovah, ourGod, thou answeredst them: a forgivingGod wast thou unto them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.
8Thou answeredst them, O Jehovah our God: Thou wast a God that forgavest them, Though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.
8You gave them an answer, O Lord our God; you took away their sin, though you gave them punishment for their wrongdoing.
