1and performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh and all his servants and all the people of his land, for you knew that
2they acted arrogantly against our fathers. And
3you made a name for yourself, as it is to this day.
11
4And you divided the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on dry land, and you cast their pursuers into the depths,
5as a stone into mighty waters.
12
By
6a pillar of cloud you led them in the day, and by a pillar of fire in the night to light for them the way in which they should go.
13
7You came down on Mount Sinai
8and spoke with them from heaven and gave them
9right rules and true laws, good statutes and commandments,
14
10and you made known to them your holy Sabbath and commanded them commandments and statutes and a law by Moses your servant.
15
11You gave them bread from heaven for their hunger and
12brought water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and you
13told them to go in to possess the land that you had sworn to give them.
16
"But they and our fathers
14acted presumptuously and stiffened their neck and did not obey your commandments.
17
They refused to obey
15and were not mindful of the wonders that you performed among them, but they stiffened their neck and appointed a leader to return to their slavery in Egypt. But you are a God ready to forgive,
16gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and did not forsake them.
18
Even
17when they had made for themselves a golden calf and said, 'This is your God who brought you up out of Egypt,'
18and had committed great blasphemies,
19
you
19in your great mercies did not forsake them in the wilderness.
20The pillar of cloud to lead them in the way did not depart from them by day,
21nor the pillar of fire by night to light for them the way by which they should go.
20
22You gave your good Spirit to instruct them
23and did not withhold your manna from their mouth and gave them water for their thirst.
