Isaiah 63:7-14
English Standard Version
The Lord's Mercy Remembered
7 I will recount the steadfast love of the Lord,
the praises of the Lord,
according to all that the Lord has granted us,
(A)and the great goodness to the house of Israel
that he has granted them according to his compassion,
according to the abundance of his steadfast love.
8 For he said, “Surely they are my people,
children who will not deal falsely.”
And he became their Savior.
9 (B)In all their affliction he was afflicted,[a]
and the angel of his presence saved them;
(C)in his love and in his pity he redeemed them;
(D)he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old.
10 (E)But they rebelled
(F)and grieved his Holy Spirit;
therefore he turned to be their enemy,
and himself fought against them.
11 Then he remembered (G)the days of old,
of Moses and his people.[b]
(H)Where is he who brought them up out of the sea
with the shepherds of his flock?
Where is he who put in the midst of them
his Holy Spirit,
12 who caused his glorious arm
to go at the right hand of Moses,
(I)who divided the waters before them
(J)to make for himself an everlasting name,
13 who led them through the depths?
Like a horse in the desert,
they did not stumble.
14 Like livestock that go down into the valley,
(K)the Spirit of the Lord gave them rest.
So you led your people,
(L)to make for yourself a glorious name.

Israel Defeats Amalek
8 (A)Then Amalek came and fought with Israel at Rephidim. 9 So Moses said to (B)Joshua, “Choose for us men, and go out and fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with (C)the staff of God in my hand.” 10 So (D)Joshua did as Moses told him, and fought with Amalek, while Moses, Aaron, and (E)Hur went up to the top of the hill. 11 Whenever Moses (F)held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. 12 But Moses' hands grew weary, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it, while Aaron and (G)Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side. So his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. 13 And (H)Joshua overwhelmed Amalek and his people with the sword.

Exodus 14:8-12
English Standard Version
8 And (A)the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the people of Israel while (B)the people of Israel were going out defiantly. 9 The (C)Egyptians pursued them, all Pharaoh's horses and chariots and his horsemen and his army, and overtook them (D)encamped at the sea, by Pi-hahiroth, in front of Baal-zephon.
10 When Pharaoh drew near, the people of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they feared greatly. And the people of Israel (E)cried out to the Lord. 11 They (F)said to Moses, “Is it because there are no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? What have you done to us in bringing us out of Egypt? 12 Is not this what (G)we said to you in Egypt: ‘Leave us alone that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”
