God is known in Judah; his name is honored in Israel.

How glorious you are, O God! How majestic, as you return from the mountains where you defeated your foes.

When you threatened them, O God of Jacob, the horses and their riders fell dead.

Give the Lord your God what you promised him; bring gifts to him, all you nearby nations. God makes everyone fear him;

I cry aloud to God; I cry aloud, and he hears me.

When I think of God, I sigh; when I meditate, I feel discouraged.

Has God forgotten to be merciful? Has anger taken the place of his compassion?"

Then I said, "What hurts me most is this— that God is no longer powerful."

Everything you do, O God, is holy. No god is as great as you.

You are the God who works miracles; you showed your might among the nations.

When the waters saw you, O God, they were afraid, and the depths of the sea trembled.

In this way they also will put their trust in God and not forget what he has done, but always obey his commandments.

They will not be like their ancestors, a rebellious and disobedient people, whose trust in God was never firm and who did not remain faithful to him.

They did not keep their covenant with God; they refused to obey his law.

While their ancestors watched, God performed miracles in the plain of Zoan in the land of Egypt.

But they continued to sin against God, and in the desert they rebelled against the Most High.

They deliberately put God to the test by demanding the food they wanted.

They spoke against God and said, "Can God supply food in the desert?

So they ate the food of angels, and God gave them all they wanted.

So the people ate and were satisfied; God gave them what they wanted.
