6. We have sinned like our ancestors;we have done wrong, we have done evil.
7. Our ancestors in Egypt failed to appreciate your miraculous deeds,they failed to remember your many acts of loyal love,and they rebelled at the sea, by the Red Sea.
8. Yet he delivered them for the sake of his reputation,that he might reveal his power.
9. He shouted at the Red Sea and it dried up;he led them through the deep water as if it were a desert.
10. He delivered them from the power of the one who hated them,and rescued them from the power of the enemy.
11. The water covered their enemies;not even one of them survived.
12. They believed his promises;they sang praises to him.
13. They quickly forgot what he had done;they did not wait for his instructions.
