So he turned and became their enemy, and he himself fought against them. 11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people: Where is the one who brought them up out of the sea, along with the shepherds of his flock?

Like a horse in open country, they did not stumble; 14 like cattle that go down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD gave them rest. This is how you guided your people to make for yourself a glorious name. 15 Look down from heaven and see, from your holy and glorious dwelling. Where are your zeal and your might? Your tenderness and compassion are withheld from us.
