9. When he the Red sea did rebuke,then dried up it was:Through depths, as through the wilderness,he safely made them pass.
10. From hands of those that hated themhe did his people save;And from the en'my's cruel handto them redemption gave.
11. The waters overwhelm'd their foes;not one was left alive.
12. Then they believ'd his word,and praise to him in songs did give.
13. But soon did they his mighty worksforget unthankfully,And on his counsel and his willdid not wait patiently;
14. But much did lust in wilderness,and God in desert tempt.
15. He gave them what they sought, but totheir soul he leanness sent.
16. And against Moses in the camptheir envy did appear;At Aaron they, the saint of God,envious also were.
17. Therefore the earth did open wide,and Dathan did devour,And all Abiram's companydid cover in that hour.
18. Likewise among their companya fire was kindled then;And so the hot consuming flameburnt up these wicked men.
19. Upon the hill of Horeb theyan idol-calf did frame,A molten image they did make,and worshipped the same.
20. And thus their glory, and their God,most vainly changed theyInto the likeness of an oxthat eateth grass or hay.
21. They did forget the mighty God,that had their saviour been,By whom such great things brought to passthey had in Egypt seen.
