Discovery BoxPsalms 78:13 
Context78:13 He divided the sea and led them across it;
he made the water stand in a heap.
Psalms 106:7-12
Context106:7 Our ancestors in Egypt failed to appreciate your miraculous deeds,
they failed to remember your many acts of loyal love,
and they rebelled at the sea, by the Red Sea. 1
106:8 Yet he delivered them for the sake of his reputation, 2
that he might reveal his power.
106:9 He shouted at 3 the Red Sea and it dried up;
he led them through the deep water as if it were a desert.
106:10 He delivered them from the power 4 of the one who hated them,
and rescued 5 them from the power 6 of the enemy.
106:11 The water covered their enemies;
not even one of them survived. 7
106:12 They believed his promises; 8
they sang praises to him.
Psalms 136:13-15
Context136:13 to the one who divided 9 the Red Sea 10 in two, 11
for his loyal love endures,
136:14 and led Israel through its midst,
for his loyal love endures,
136:15 and tossed 12 Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea,
for his loyal love endures,
