Exodus 15
1. Then sang * Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake * , saying * , I will sing * unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed * gloriously * : the horse and his rider * hath he thrown * into the sea.
2. The LORD is my strength and song,and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation * ; my father's God, and I will exalt * him.
3. The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.
4. Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast * into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned * in the Red sea.
5. The depths have covered * them: they sank * into the bottom as a stone.
6. Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious * in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces * the enemy * .
7. And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown * them that rose up against * thee: thou sentest forth * thy wrath,which consumed * them as stubble.
8. And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together * , the floods * stood upright * as an heap, and the depths were congealed * in the heart of the sea.
9. The enemy * said * , I will pursue * , I will overtake * , I will divide * the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied * upon them; I will draw * my sword, my hand shall destroy * them.
10. Thou didst blow * with thy wind, the sea covered * them: they sank * as lead in the mighty waters.
11. Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious * in holiness, fearful * in praises, doing * wonders?
12. Thou stretchedst out * thy right hand,the earth swallowed * them.
13. Thou in thy mercy hast led forth * the people which thou hast redeemed * : thou hast guided * them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.
14. The people shall hear * , and be afraid * : sorrow shall take hold * on the inhabitants * of Palestina.
15. Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed * ; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold * upon them; all the inhabitants * of Canaan shall melt away * .
16. Fear and dread shall fall * upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still * as a stone; till thy people pass over * , O LORD, till the people pass over * , which thou hast purchased * .
17. Thou shalt bring * them in, and plant * them in the mountain of thine inheritance,in the place, O LORD, which thou hast made * for thee to dwell in * , in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established * .
18. The LORD shall reign * for ever and ever.
19. For the horse of Pharaoh went in * with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought again * the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went * on dry land in the midst of the sea.
20. And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took * a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out * after her with timbrels and with dances.
21. And Miriam answered * them, Sing * ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed * gloriously * ; the horse and his rider * hath he thrown * into the sea.
22. So Moses brought * Israel from the Red sea, and they went out * into the wilderness of Shur; and they went * three days in the wilderness, and found * no water.
23. And when they came * to Marah, they could * not drink * of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter:therefore the name of it was called * Marah.
24. And the people murmured * against Moses, saying * , What shall we drink * ?
25. And he cried * unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed * him a tree, which when he had cast * into the waters, the waters were made sweet * : there he made * for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved * them,
26. And said * , If thou wilt diligently * hearken * to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do * that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear * to his commandments, and keep * all his statutes, I will put * none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought * upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth * thee.
27. And they came * to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped * there by the waters.
