9 The people had many troubles, but he was not against them. He loved them and felt sorry for them, so he saved them. He sent his special angel to save them. He picked them up and carried them, just as he did long ago.
10 But they turned against him and made his Holy Spirit very sad. So the Lord became their enemy and fought against them.
11 Then they remembered what happened long ago. They remembered Moses and those with him. So where is the one who brought them through the sea along with the shepherds who led his flock? Where is the one who sent his Holy Spirit to live among them?
12 He was by Moses’ side and led him with his wonderful hand. He divided the water, so that the people could walk through the sea. He made his name famous by doing those great things.
13 He led the people through the deep sea. Like a horse running through the desert, they walked without falling.
14 Like cattle going down to the valley, The Spirit of the Lord led them. This is how you led your people and made your name wonderful.
15 Please, look down from the heavens. See what is happening now. Look down at us from your great and holy home in heaven. Where is your strong love for us? Where is your compassion? Why are you hiding your kind love from me?
