Exodus 15:1–12

Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto Jehovah, and spake, saying,

I will sing unto Jehovah, for he hath triumphed gloriously:

The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

2Jehovah is my strength and song,

And he is become my salvation:

This is my God, and I will praise him;

My father’s God, and I will exalt him.

3Jehovah is a man of war:

Jehovah is his name.

4Pharaoh’s chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea;

And his chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea.

5The deeps cover them:

They went down into the depths like a stone.

6Thy right hand, O Jehovah, is glorious in power,

Thy right hand, O Jehovah, dasheth in pieces the enemy.

7And in the greatness of thine excellency thou overthrowest them that rise up against thee:

Thou sendest forth thy wrath, it consumeth them as stubble.

8And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were piled up,

The floods stood upright as a heap;

The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.

9The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil;

My desire shall be satisfied upon them;

I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

10Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them:

They sank as lead in the mighty waters.

11Who is like unto thee, O Jehovah, among the gods?

Who is like thee, glorious in holiness,

Fearful in praises, doing wonders?

12Thou stretchedst out thy right hand,

The earth swallowed them.
