Nehemiah 9:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ “You saw our ·ancestors [fathers] ·suffering [miserable; afflicted; in distress] in Egypt
    and heard them cry out ·at [beside] the ·Red Sea [^LSea of Reeds; Ex. 14–15].
¹⁰ You ·did [performed; displayed] signs and ·miracles [wonders] against ·the king of Egypt [^LPharaoh],
    and against all his ·officers [officials; servants] and all the people of his land,
    because you knew how ·proud [arrogant; insolent] they were to them [^CIsrael’s ancestors].
You ·became as famous [^Lmade a name for yourself] ·as you are today [which remains to this day].
¹¹ You ·divided [split; opened] the sea in front of ·our ancestors [^Lthem];
    they ·walked [passed] through the sea on dry ground [Ex. 14–15].
But you threw ·the people chasing them into the deep water [their pursuers into the depths],
    like a stone thrown into ·mighty [raging; surging] waters.
