Isaiah
Isaiah 63:12–14
12who sent His glorious arm
to lead them by the right hand of Moses,
who divided the waters before them
to gain for Himself everlasting renown,
13who led them through the depths
like a horse in the wilderness,
so that they did not stumble?
14Like cattle going down to the valley,
the Spirit of the LORD gave them rest.
You led Your people this way
to make for Yourself a glorious name.
