11 Then they remembered those days of old
    when Moses led his people out of Egypt.
They cried out, “Where is the one who brought Israel through the sea,
    with Moses as their shepherd?
Where is the one who sent his Holy Spirit
    to be among his people?
12 Where is the one whose power was displayed
    when Moses lifted up his hand—
the one who divided the sea before them,
    making himself famous forever?
13 Where is the one who led them through the bottom of the sea?
    They were like fine stallions
    racing through the desert, never stumbling.
14 As with cattle going down into a peaceful valley,
    the Spirit of the Lord gave them rest.
You led your people, Lord,
    and gained a magnificent reputation.”

11 Then they[a] remembered the days of old,
    of Moses his servant.
Where is the one who brought up[b] out of the sea
    the[c] shepherds of his flock?
Where is the one who put his Holy Spirit among them,
12 and[d] who made his glorious arm[e] march at Moses’ right hand,
who divided the waters in front of them
    to win[f] an everlasting name,
13 who led them through the depths?
    Like a horse in the open desert,
        they did not stumble;
14 like cattle that go down into the valley,
    the Spirit of the Lord gave them rest.
For[g] you led your people,
    to win for yourself a glorious name.
