The Ephraimites, armed with[a] the bow,
    (A)turned back on the day of battle.
10 They (B)did not keep God's covenant,
    but refused to walk according to his law.
11 They (C)forgot his works
    and (D)the wonders that he had shown them.
12 In the sight of their fathers (E)he performed wonders
    in the land of Egypt, in (F)the fields of Zoan.
13 He (G)divided the sea and let them pass through it,
    and made the waters (H)stand like a heap.
14 (I)In the daytime he led them with a cloud,
    and all the night with a fiery light.
15 He (J)split rocks in the wilderness
    and gave them drink abundantly as from the deep.
16 He made streams come out of (K)the rock
    and caused waters to flow down like rivers.
