Psalm 106:7-15

View Full Chapter

7When our ancestors were in Egypt, they gave no thought to your miracles; they did not remember your many kindnesses, and they rebelled by the sea, the Red Sea. Or the Sea of Reeds; also in verses 9 and 22

8Yet he saved them for his name’s sake, to make his mighty 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 of the foe; from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them.

11The waters covered their adversaries; not one of them survived.

12Then they believed his promises and sang his praise.

13But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his plan to unfold.

14In the desert they gave in to their craving; in the wilderness they put God to the test.

15So he gave them what they asked for, but sent a wasting disease among them.
