9 When our ancestorswere in Egypt,you saw their suffering;when they were at the Red Sea,you heard their cry for help.
10 You knew that the King of Egyptand his officials and his nationhad ill-treated your people.So you worked fearsome miraclesagainst the Egyptiansand earned a reputationthat still remains.
11 You divided the deep sea,and your people walked throughon dry land.But you tossed their enemies in,and they sank downlike a heavy stone.
12 Each day you led your peoplewith a thick cloud,and at night you showed the waywith a flaming fire.
13 At Sinai you came downfrom heaven,and you gave your peoplegood laws and teachingsthat are fair and honest.
14 You commanded them to respectyour holy Sabbath,and you instructedyour servant Mosesto teach them your laws.
15 When they were hungry,you sent bread from heaven,and when they were thirsty,you let water flowfrom a rock.Then you commanded themto capture the landthat you had solemnly promised.
