106:8 Yet he delivered them for the sake of his reputation, 1
that he might reveal his power.
106:9 He shouted at 2 the Red Sea and it dried up;
he led them through the deep water as if it were a desert.
106:10 He delivered them from the power 3 of the one who hated them,
and rescued 4 them from the power 5 of the enemy.
106:11 The water covered their enemies;
not even one of them survived. 6
106:12 They believed his promises; 7
they sang praises to him.
