9. He rebuked the Red Sea, and it was driedup,so He led them through the depths as through the wilderness.
10. He saved them from the hand of him who hated themand redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11. The waters covered their enemies;there was not one of them left.
12. Then they believed His words;they sang His praise.
13. But they soon forgot His works;they did not wait for His counsel,
14. but they lusted exceedingly in the wildernessand tested God in the desert.
15. He gave them their request,but He sent a wasting disease on them.
16. They envied in the camp Mosesand Aaron, the holy priest of the Lord.
17. The earth opened and swallowed up Dathanand engulfed those led by Abiram.
