¹¹ They forgot what he had done—
    the great wonders he had shown them,

¹³ Yet how quickly they forgot what he had done!
    They wouldn’t wait for his counsel!

³² Does a young woman forget her jewelry,
    or a bride her wedding dress?
Yet for years on end
    my people have forgotten me.

²¹ They forgot God, their savior,
    who had done such great things in Egypt—
²² such wonderful things in the land of Ham,
    such awesome deeds at the Red Sea.

⁷ So each generation should set its hope anew on God,
    not forgetting his glorious miracles
    and obeying his commands.

¹⁸ You neglected the Rock who had fathered you;
    you forgot the God who had given you birth.
