Against all his servants,
And against all the people of his land.
For You knew that they (D)acted [a]proudly against them.
So You (E)made a name for Yourself, as it is this day.

So that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land;
And their persecutors You threw into the deep,
(G)As a stone into the mighty waters.
