9. Wake up, Lord, and help us!Use your power and save us;use it as you did in ancient times.It was you that cut the sea monster Rahab to pieces.
10. It was you also who dried up the seaand made a path through the water,so that those you were saving could cross.
11. Those whom you have rescuedwill reach Jerusalem with gladness,singing and shouting for joy.They will be happy for ever,for ever free from sorrow and grief.
12. The Lord says,“I am the one who strengthens you.Why should you fear mortals,who are no more enduring than grass?
