11 Then they remembered earlier times,
    when he rescued his people.[a]
Where was the one who drew them up from the sea,
    the shepherd[b] of the flock?
Where was the one who put within them his holy spirit;
12     the one who guided Moses’ strong hand
    with his glorious arm;
    who split the water for them
    to create an enduring reputation for himself,
13     and who guided them through the depths?
    Like a horse in the desert, they didn’t stumble.
14 Like cattle descending to the valley,
    the Lord’s spirit brought them to rest.
In this way you led your people
    and made for yourself a glorious reputation.

11 Then his people recalled[a] the days of old,
    the days of Moses and his people—
where is he who brought them through the sea,(A)
    with the shepherd of his flock?(B)
Where is he who set
    his Holy Spirit(C) among them,
12 who sent his glorious arm(D) of power
    to be at Moses’ right hand,
who divided the waters(E) before them,
    to gain for himself everlasting renown,(F)
13 who led(G) them through the depths?(H)
Like a horse in open country,
    they did not stumble;(I)
14 like cattle that go down to the plain,
    they were given rest(J) by the Spirit of the Lord.
This is how you guided your people
    to make for yourself a glorious name.
