Psalms 77:18-20

77:18 Your thunderous voice was heard in the wind;

the lightning bolts lit up the world;

the earth trembled and shook. ¹ 

77:19 You walked through the sea; ² 

you passed through the surging waters, ³ 

but left no footprints. ⁴ 

77:20 You led your people like a flock of sheep,

by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
