Our ancestors in Egypt didn’t understand your wondrous works.
    They didn’t remember how much faithful love you have.
    So they rebelled by the sea—at the Reed Sea.[a]
But God saved them for the sake of his good name,
    to make known his mighty power.
God scolded the Reed Sea, and it dried right up;
    he led them through the deeps like they were a dry desert.

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]
Yet he saved them(D) for his name’s sake,(E)
    to make his mighty power(F) known.
He rebuked(G) the Red Sea, and it dried up;(H)
    he led them through(I) the depths as through a desert.
