Psalms 106:6-12

Psalms 106

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

6We have sinned like our fathers; we have done wrong and acted wickedly.

7Our fathers in Egypt did not grasp Your wonders or remember Your abundant kindness; but they rebelled by the sea, there at the Red Sea.

8Yet He saved them for the sake of His name, to make His power known.

9He rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; He led them through the depths as through a desert.

10He saved them from the hand that hated them; He redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

11The waters covered their foes; not one of them remained.

12Then they believed His promises and sang His praise.
