¹² He did miracles^(A) in the sight of their ancestors
    in the land of Egypt,^(B) in the region of Zoan.^(C)
13 He divided the sea^(D) and led them through;
    he made the water stand up like a wall.^(E)
14 He guided them with the cloud by day
    and with light from the fire all night.^(F)
15 He split the rocks^(G) in the wilderness
    and gave them water as abundant as the seas;
¹⁶ he brought streams out of a rocky crag
    and made water flow down like rivers.

¹⁷ But they continued to sin^(H) against him,
    rebelling in the wilderness against the Most High.
¹⁸ They willfully put God to the test^(I)
    by demanding the food they craved.^(J)
19 They spoke against God;^(K)
    they said, “Can God really
    spread a table in the wilderness?
²⁰ True, he struck the rock,
    and water gushed out,^(L)
    streams flowed abundantly,
but can he also give us bread?
    Can he supply meat^(M) for his people?”
²¹ When the Lord heard them, he was furious;
    his fire broke out^(N) against Jacob,
    and his wrath rose against Israel,
²² for they did not believe in God
    or trust^(O) in his deliverance.
²³ Yet he gave a command to the skies above
    and opened the doors of the heavens;^(P)
24 he rained down manna^(Q) for the people to eat,
    he gave them the grain of heaven.
²⁵ Human beings ate the bread of angels;
    he sent them all the food they could eat.
²⁶ He let loose the east wind^(R) from the heavens
    and by his power made the south wind blow.
²⁷ He rained meat down on them like dust,
    birds^(S) like sand on the seashore.
²⁸ He made them come down inside their camp,
    all around their tents.

⁴² They did not remember^(A) his power—
    the day he redeemed them from the oppressor,^(B)
43 the day he displayed his signs^(C) in Egypt,
    his wonders^(D) in the region of Zoan.
⁴⁴ He turned their river into blood;^(E)
    they could not drink from their streams.
⁴⁵ He sent swarms of flies^(F) that devoured them,
    and frogs^(G) that devastated them.
⁴⁶ He gave their crops to the grasshopper,^(H)
    their produce to the locust.^(I)
47 He destroyed their vines with hail^(J)
    and their sycamore-figs with sleet.
⁴⁸ He gave over their cattle to the hail,
    their livestock^(K) to bolts of lightning.
⁴⁹ He unleashed against them his hot anger,^(L)
    his wrath, indignation and hostility—
    a band of destroying angels.^(M)
50 He prepared a path for his anger;
    he did not spare them from death
    but gave them over to the plague.
⁵¹ He struck down all the firstborn of Egypt,^(N)
    the firstfruits of manhood in the tents of Ham.^(O)
52 But he brought his people out like a flock;^(P)
    he led them like sheep through the wilderness.
⁵³ He guided them safely, so they were unafraid;
    but the sea engulfed^(Q) their enemies.^(R)

⁷ When our ancestors were in Egypt,
    they gave no thought^(A) to your miracles;
they did not remember^(B) your many kindnesses,
    and they rebelled by the sea,^(C) the Red Sea.^[a]
8 Yet he saved them^(D) for his name’s sake,^(E)
    to make his mighty power^(F) known.
⁹ He rebuked^(G) the Red Sea, and it dried up;^(H)
    he led them through^(I) the depths as through a desert.
¹⁰ He saved them^(J) from the hand of the foe;^(K)
    from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them.^(L)
11 The waters covered^(M) their adversaries;
    not one of them survived.
¹² Then they believed his promises
    and sang his praise.^(N)
