7. Our ancestors in Egypt did not understand your wonderful works. They did not remember your many acts of loyal love, and so they rebelled by the sea at the Red Sea.
8. Yet he saved them for the sake of his name, to make known his might.
9. So he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up, and he led them through the deep as through a desert.
10. Thus he saved them from the hand of the hater and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11. But waters covered their adversaries; not one of them survived.
12. Then they believed his words; they sang his praise.
13. They quickly forgot his works; they did not wait for his counsel.
14. And they craved intensely in the wilderness, and tested God in the desert.
15. So he gave to them their request, but he sent leanness into their souls.
16. And they were jealous of Moses in the camp, and of Aaron, the holy one of Yahweh.
17. The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and it covered over the gang of Abiram.
18. Also fire burned in their assembly; the flame devoured the wicked.
19. They made a calf at Horeb and bowed down to a cast image.
