¹⁰ Are you not the same today,
    the one who dried up the sea,
making a path of escape through the depths
    so that your people could cross over?

² Why was no one there when I came?
    Why didn’t anyone answer when I called?
Is it because I have no power to rescue?
    No, that is not the reason!
For I can speak to the sea and make it dry up!
    I can turn rivers into deserts covered with dying fish.

¹¹ Then they remembered those days of old
    when Moses led his people out of Egypt.
They cried out, “Where is the one who brought Israel through the sea,
    with Moses as their shepherd?
Where is the one who sent his Holy Spirit
    to be among his people?
¹² Where is the one whose power was displayed
    when Moses lifted up his hand—
the one who divided the sea before them,
    making himself famous forever?

¹⁶ I am the Lord, who opened a way through the waters,
    making a dry path through the sea.

¹³ “With your unfailing love you lead
    the people you have redeemed.
In your might, you guide them
    to your sacred home.

¹⁵ I will level the mountains and hills
    and blight all their greenery.
I will turn the rivers into dry land
    and will dry up all the pools.

¹³ You split the sea by your strength
    and smashed the heads of the sea monsters.
