the tongue of the sea of Egypt
and will wave his hand over the River
with his scorching wind
and will split it into seven channels

for the remnant that is left of his people,
as there was for Israel
when they came up from the land of Egypt.(F)

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
18 Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the rest of your pasture? When you drink of clear water, must you foul the rest with your feet? 19 And must my sheep eat what you have trodden with your feet and drink what you have fouled with your feet?
20 Therefore, thus says the Lord God to them: I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep. 21 Because you pushed with flank and shoulder and butted at all the weak animals with your horns until you scattered them far and wide, 22 I will save my flock, and they shall no longer be ravaged, and I will judge between sheep and sheep.
23 I will set up over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he shall feed them; he shall feed them and be their shepherd.(A) 24 And I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David shall be prince among them; I the Lord have spoken.(B)
25 I will make with them a covenant of peace and banish wild animals from the land, so that they may live in the wild and sleep in the woods securely.(C)
