Psalm 77:17-21
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
17 The waters saw you, God;
the waters saw you and lashed about,
even the deeps of the sea[a] trembled.(A)
18 The clouds poured down their rains;
the thunderheads rumbled;
your arrows flashed back and forth.(B)
19 The thunder of your chariot wheels resounded;
your lightning lit up the world;
the earth trembled and quaked.(C)
20 Through the sea was your way;
your path, through the mighty waters,
though your footsteps were unseen.(D)
21 You led your people like a flock
by the hand of Moses and Aaron.(E)
