Your way, O God, is holy: what god is so great as our God?

The waters saw you, O God; the waters saw you, they were in fear: even the deep was troubled.

Your way was in the sea, and your road in the great waters; there was no knowledge of your footsteps.

He put up a witness in Jacob, and made a law in Israel; which he gave to our fathers so that they might give knowledge of them to their children;

So that the generation to come might have knowledge of them, even the children of the future, who would give word of them to their children;

So that they might put their hope in God, and not let God's works go out of their minds, but keep his laws;

They were not ruled by God's word, and they would not go in the way of his law;

They let his works go out of their memory, and the wonders which he had made them see.

The sea was cut in two so that they might go through; the waters were massed together on this side and on that.

See, the rock was cut open by his power, so that the water came rushing out, and overflowing streams; is he able to give us bread? is he able to get meat for his people?

So these things came to the Lord's ears, and he was angry; and a fire was lighted against Jacob, and wrath came up against Israel;

He sent down meat on them like dust, and feathered birds like the sand of the sea,

So they had food and were full; for he gave them their desire;

So their days were wasted like a breath, and their years in trouble.

So he kept in mind that they were only flesh; a breath which is quickly gone, and will not come again.

So that their rivers were turned to blood, and they were not able to get drink from their streams.

He took them on safely so that they had no fear; but their haters were covered by the sea.

When this came to God's ears he was very angry, and gave up Israel completely;

So that he went away from the holy place in Shiloh, the tent which he had put among men;

So he gave them food with an upright heart, guiding them by the wisdom of his hands.

Take us back again, O God; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.

Take us back again, O God of armies; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.

You made ready a place for it, so that it might take deep root, and it sent out its branches over all the land.

It sent out its arms to the Sea, and its branches to the River.

Why are its walls broken down by your hands, so that all who go by may take its fruit?

So will we not be turned back from you; keep us in life, and we will give praise to your name.

Take us back, O Lord God of armies; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.

Give ear, O my people, and I will give you my word, O Israel, if you will only do as I say!

I am the Lord your God, who took you up from the land of Egypt: let your mouth be open wide, so that I may give you food.

So I gave them up to the desires of their hearts; that they might go after their evil purposes.

The passion of my soul's desire is for the house of the Lord; my heart and my flesh are crying out for the living God.

Will you not give us life again, so that your people may be glad in you?

Let us see your mercy, O Lord, and give us your salvation.

I will give ear to the voice of the Lord; for he will say words of peace to his people and to his saints; but let them not go back to their foolish ways.

Truly, his salvation is near to his worshippers; so that glory may be in our land.

Rahab and Babylon will be named among those who have knowledge of me; see, Philistia and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man had his birth there.

The players on instruments will be there, and the dancers will say, All my springs are in you.

You have rule over the sea in storm; when its waves are troubled, you make them calm.

For our breastplate is the Lord; and our king is the Holy One of Israel's.

I will put his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.

He will say to me, You are my father, my God, and the Rock of my salvation.

See how short my time is; why have you made all men for no purpose?

What man now living will not see death? will he be able to keep back his soul from the underworld? (Selah.)

Let the Lord be praised for ever. So be it, So be it.

You will see a thousand falling by your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.

Only with your eyes will you see the reward of the evil-doers.

In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.

With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation.

The Lord is King; he is clothed with glory; the Lord is clothed with strength; power is the cord of his robe; the world is fixed, so that it may not be moved.

The Lord in heaven is stronger than the noise of great waters, yes, he is stronger than the great waves of the sea.

Words of pride come from their lips; all the workers of evil say great things of themselves.

And they say, Jah will not see it, the God of Jacob will not give thought to it.

So that you may give him rest from the days of evil, till a hole is made ready for the destruction of the sinners.

If I say, My foot is slipping; your mercy, O Lord, is my support.

The sea is his, and he made it; and the dry land was formed by his hands.

When your fathers put me to the test and saw my power and my work.

Say among the nations, The Lord is King; yes, the world is ordered so that it may not be moved; he will be an upright judge of the peoples.

Let the heavens have joy and the earth be glad; let the sea be thundering with all its waters;

The Lord is King, let the earth have joy; let all the sea-lands be glad.

His bright flames give light to the world; the earth saw it with fear.

The heavens gave out the news of his righteousness, and all the people saw his glory.

The king's power is used for righteousness; you give true decisions, judging rightly in the land of Jacob.

He makes your mouth full of good things, so that your strength is made new again like the eagle's.

For as the heaven is high over the earth, so great is his mercy to his worshippers.

As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our sins from us.

As a father has pity on his children, so the Lord has pity on his worshippers.

But the mercy of the Lord is eternal for his worshippers, and their children's children will see his righteousness;

He has made the earth strong on its bases, so that it may not be moved for ever and ever;

Covering it with the sea as with a robe: the waters were high over the mountains;

You made a limit over which they might not go, so that the earth would never again be covered by them.

He makes the grass come up for the cattle, and plants for the use of man; so that bread may come out of the earth;

There is the great, wide sea, where there are living things, great and small, more than may be numbered.

And he took away all food from the land, so that the people were without bread.

To give his chiefs teaching at his pleasure, and so that his law-givers might get wisdom from him.

Their hearts were turned to hate against his people, so that they made secret designs against them.

At the people's request he sent birds, and gave them the bread of heaven for food.

So that they might keep his orders, and be true to his laws. Give praise to the Lord.

So that I may see the well-being of the people of your selection, and have a part in the joy of your nation, and take pride in your heritage.

Our fathers did not give thought to your wonders in Egypt; they did not keep in memory the great number of your mercies, but gave you cause for wrath at the sea, even at the Red Sea.

But he was their saviour because of his name, so that men might see his great power.

By his word the Red Sea was made dry: and he took them through the deep waters as through the waste land.

Works of wonder in the land of Ham, and things of fear by the Red Sea.

So he made an oath against them, to put an end to them in the waste land:

So they made him angry by their behaviour; and he sent disease on them.

They made God angry again at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled because of them;

So they became unclean through their works, going after their evil desires.

Be our saviour, O Lord our God, and let us come back together from among the nations, so that we may give honour to your holy name, and have glory in your praise.

Praise be to the Lord God of Israel for ever and for ever; and let all the people say, So be it. Give praise to the Lord.

Let those whose cause the Lord has taken up say so, his people whom he has taken out of the hands of their haters;

They were wandering in the waste places; they saw no way to a resting-place.

Guiding them in the right way, so that they might come into the town of their resting-place.

He gives its desire to the unresting soul, so that it is full of good things.

So that he made their hearts weighted down with grief; they were falling, and had no helper.

Those who go down to the sea in ships, who do business in the great waters;

They see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.

He makes the storm into a calm, so that the waves are at peace.

Then they are glad, because the sea is quiet, and he takes them to the harbour of their desire.

And there he gives the poor a resting-place, so that they may make themselves a town;

He gives them his blessing so that they are increased greatly, and their cattle do not become less.

The upright see it and are glad: the mouth of the sinner is stopped.
