8They would not be like their ancestors, who were very stubborn and kept rebelling against God; they did not continue firmly trusting in God, and they did not worship only him.
9The soldiers of the tribe of Ephraim had bows and arrows but they ran away from their enemies on the day that they fought a battle with their enemies.
10They did not do what they had agreed with God that they would do; they refused to obey his laws.
11They forgot what he had done; they forgot about the miracles that they had seen him perform.
12While our ancestors were watching, God performed miracles in the area around Zoan city in Egypt.
13Then he caused the Red Sea to divide, causing the water on each side to pile up like a wall, with the result that our ancestors walked through it on dry ground.
14He led them by a bright cloud during the day and by a fiery light during the night.
15He split rocks open in the desert, giving to our ancestors plenty of water from deep inside the earth.
