13. She did not abandon the just man when he was sold, but freed him from sinners; she went down with him into the pit,
14. and she did not abandon him in chains, while she brought him the scepter of the kingdom and power against those who oppressed him, and revealed them to be liars who had dishonored him, and gave him everlasting glory.
15. She freed this just people and the blameless offspring, from the nations that had oppressed them.
16. She entered the soul of the servant of God and stood against dreadful kings in the midst of portents and signs,
17. and she rendered to the just the wages of their labors, and led them along a wondrous way; and she was to them, like a cover by day, and like the light of the stars by night.
18. She carried them through the Red Sea, and led them across a great water.
19. But their enemies, she submerged in the sea, and from the furthest depths, she drew them up. Therefore, the just carried off the spoils of the impious.
20. And they chanted to your holy name, Lord, and they together praised your victorious hand,
21. because wisdom opened the mouth of the mute, and made the speech of infants eloquent.
