10 He rescued them from hostile hands,freed them from the power of the enemy.
11 The waters covered their oppressors;not one of them survived.
12 Then they believed his wordsand sang his praise.
13 But they soon forgot all he had done;they had no patience for his plan.
14 In the desert they gave in to their cravings,tempted God in the wasteland.
15 So he gave them what they askedand sent a wasting disease against them.
16 In the camp they challenged Mosesand Aaron, the holy one of the Lord.
