6 We have sinned like our ancestors;we have done wrong and are guilty.
7 Our ancestors in Egyptdid not attend to your wonders.They did not remember your manifold mercy;they defied the Most High at the Red Sea.
8 Yet he saved them for his name’s saketo make his power known.
9 He roared at the Red Sea and it dried up.He led them through the deep as through a desert.
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.
