7 When our ancestors were in Egypt,they gave no thought to your miracles.They did not remember your numerous acts of mercy,so they rebelled at the sea, the Red Sea.
8 He saved them because of his reputationso that he could make his mighty power known.
9 He angrily commanded the Red Sea, and it dried up.He led them through deep water as though it were a desert.
10 He rescued them from the power of the one who hated them.He rescued them from the enemy.
11 Water covered their adversaries.Not one Egyptian survived.
12 Then our ancestors believed what he said.They sang his praise.
13 They quickly forgot what he did.They did not wait for his advice.
