11By you the sea was parted before them, so that they went through the sea on dry land; and those who went after them went down into the deep, like a stone into great waters.
12And you went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night, to give them light on the way they were to go.
13And you came down on Mount Sinai, and your voice came to them from heaven, giving them right decisions and true laws, good rules and orders:
14And you gave them word of your holy Sabbath, and gave them orders and rules and a law, by the hand of Moses your servant:
15And you gave them bread from heaven when they were in need, and made water come out of the rock for their drink, and gave them orders to go in and take for their heritage the land which your hand had been lifted up to give them.
16But they and our fathers, in their pride, made their necks stiff, and gave no attention to your orders,
17And would not do them, and gave no thought to the wonders you had done among them; but made their necks stiff, and turning away from you, made a captain over themselves to take them back to their prison in Egypt: but you are a God of forgiveness, full of grace and pity, slow to wrath and great in mercy, and you did not give them up.
