The note read: " A column of smoke by day, a pillar of fire by night." There was no signature.

纸条上写着：“白天的烟柱，晚上的火柱。”没有签名。

Freedom—freedom for herself and for her offspring, for many years had been her cloud by day, her pillar of fire by night.

自由——她自己和她后代的自由，多年来一直是她白天的云彩， 晚上的火柱。

During the day, God went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud. During the night, God went ahead of them in a pillar of fire.

白天，神在云柱中走在他们前面。夜间，上帝以火柱走在他们前面。

Soon after the snow is off the round it rises through the dead needles and humus in the pine and fir woods like a bright glowing pillar of fire.

雪花落下后不久，它就从松树和冷杉林的枯针和腐殖质中升起，就像一根明亮的火柱。

By day you led them with a pillar of cloud, and by night with a pillar of fire to give them light on the way they were to take.

并且白昼用云柱引导他们，黑夜用火柱照亮他们当行的路。

These were only the day hazards. Only a pillar of fire by night would have seemed sufficient comfort and guidance, and this was never provided except by the dubious assistance of lightning.

这些只是白天的危险。只有夜间的火柱似乎足够安慰和引导，而这从来没有提供，除非有可疑的闪电帮助。
