Smoke went up out of His nostrils,
And fire from His mouth devoured;
Coals were kindled by it.

I went about as though it were my friend or brother;
I bowed down mourning, as one who sorrows for a mother.

You made men ride over our heads;
We went through fire and through water,
Yet You brought us out into a place of abundance.

O God, when You went forth before Your people,
When You marched through the wilderness, Selah.

The singers went on, the musicians after them,
In the midst of the maidens beating tambourines.

He established it for a testimony in Joseph
When he went throughout the land of Egypt.
I heard a language that I did not know:

They also provoked Him to wrath at the waters of Meribah,
So that it went hard with Moses on their account;

They rose up to the heavens, they went down to the depths;
Their soul melted away in their misery.

When Israel went forth from Egypt,
The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

Before I was afflicted I went astray,
But now I keep Your word.
