Nehemiah 9:9-15

New International Version

⁹ “You saw the suffering of our ancestors in Egypt;^(A) you heard their cry at the Red Sea.^{[a](B) 10} You sent signs^(C) and wonders^(D) against Pharaoh, against all his officials and all the people of his land, for you knew how arrogantly the Egyptians treated them. You made a name^(E) for yourself,^(F) which remains to this day. ¹¹ You divided the sea before them,^(G) so that they passed through it on dry ground, but you hurled their pursuers into the depths,^(H) like a stone into mighty waters.^{(I) 12} By day^(J) you led^(K) them with a pillar of cloud,^(L) and by night with a pillar of fire to give them light on the way they were to take.

¹³ “You came down on Mount Sinai;^(M) you spoke^(N) to them from heaven.^(O) You gave them regulations and laws that are just^(P) and right, and decrees and commands that are good.^{(Q) 14} You made known to them your holy Sabbath^(R) and gave them commands, decrees and laws through your servant Moses. ¹⁵ In their hunger you gave them bread from heaven^(S) and in their thirst you brought them water from the rock;^(T) you told them to go in and take possession of the land you had sworn with uplifted hand^(U) to give them.^(V)
