Psalms 106:7-8
Psalms 106:6-12 The Message (MSG)
We’ve sinned a lot, both we and our parents; We’ve fallen short, hurt a lot of people. After our parents left Egypt, they took your wonders for granted, forgot your great and wonderful love. They were barely beyond the Red Sea when they defied the High God —the very place he saved them! —the place he revealed his amazing power! He rebuked the Red Sea so that it dried up on the spot —he paraded them right through! —no one so much as got wet feet! He saved them from a life of oppression, pried them loose from the grip of the enemy. Then the waters flowed back on their oppressors; there wasn’t a single survivor. Then they believed his words were true and broke out in songs of praise.
Psalms 106:7-8 King James Version (KJV)
Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; They remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; But provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea. Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, That he might make his mighty power to be known.
Psalms 106:7-8 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

Psalms 106:7-8 New Century Version (NCV)

Psalms 106:7-8 American Standard Version (ASV)

Psalms 106:7-8 New Living Translation (NLT)

Psalms 106:7-8 The Passion Translation (TPT)
Our fathers who were delivered from Egypt didn’t fully understand your wonders, and they took you for granted. Over and over you showed them such tender love and mercy!
