Isaiah 63:8-14
King James Version
8 For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.
10 But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.
11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?
12 That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
13 That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?
14 As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the Lord caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.

Isaiah 63:8-14
New International Version
8 He said, “Surely they are my people,(A)
children who will be true to me”;
and so he became their Savior.(B)
9 In all their distress he too was distressed,
and the angel(C) of his presence(D) saved them.[a]
In his love and mercy he redeemed(E) them;
he lifted them up and carried(F) them
all the days of old.(G)
10 Yet they rebelled(H)
and grieved his Holy Spirit.(I)
So he turned and became their enemy(J)
and he himself fought(K) against them.
11 Then his people recalled[b] the days of old,
the days of Moses and his people—
where is he who brought them through the sea,(L)
with the shepherd of his flock?(M)
Where is he who set
his Holy Spirit(N) among them,
12 who sent his glorious arm(O) of power
to be at Moses’ right hand,
who divided the waters(P) before them,
to gain for himself everlasting renown,(Q)
13 who led(R) them through the depths?(S)
Like a horse in open country,
they did not stumble;(T)
14 like cattle that go down to the plain,
they were given rest(U) by the Spirit of the Lord.
This is how you guided your people
to make for yourself a glorious name.
