10 It was you also who dried up the seaand made a path through the water,so that those you were saving could cross.
11 Those whom you have rescuedwill reach Jerusalem with gladness,singing and shouting for joy.They will be happy for ever,for ever free from sorrow and grief.
12 The Lord says,“I am the one who strengthens you.Why should you fear mortals,who are no more enduring than grass?
13 Have you forgotten the Lord who made you,who stretched out the heavensand laid the earth's foundations?Why should you live in constant fearof the fury of those who oppress you,of those who are ready to destroy you?Their fury can no longer touch you.
14 Those who are prisoners will soon be set free;they will live a long lifeand have all the food they need.
15 “I am the Lord your God;I stir up the seaand make its waves roar.My name is the Lord Almighty!
16 I stretched out the heavensand laid the earth's foundations;I say to Jerusalem, ‘You are my people!I have given you my teaching,and I protect you with my hand.’ ”
