⁶ They did not say, “Where is the Lord,
    who brought us up from the land of Egypt,
who led us in the wilderness,
    in a land of deserts and pits,
in a land of drought and deep darkness,
    in a land that no one passes through,
    where no one lives?”^(A)

¹¹ Then they^[a] remembered the days of old,
    of Moses his servant.^[b]
Where is the one who brought them up out of the sea
    with the shepherds of his flock?
Where is the one who put within them
    his holy spirit,^(A)
12 who caused his glorious arm
    to march at the right hand of Moses,
who divided the waters before them
    to make for himself an everlasting name,^(B)
13     who led them through the depths?
Like a horse in the desert,
    they did not stumble.^(C)

¹⁶ the people who sat in darkness
    have seen a great light,
and for those who sat in the region and shadow of death
    light has dawned.”^(A)

¹³ By a prophet the Lord brought Israel up from Egypt,
    and by a prophet he was guarded.^(A)

² Although they say, “As the Lord lives,”
    yet they swear falsely.^(A)

⁸ The priests did not say, “Where is the Lord?”
    Those who handle the law did not know me;
the rulers^[a] transgressed against me;
    the prophets prophesied by Baal
    and went after things that do not profit.^(A)
