Exodus 15:4–13

⁴He threw Pharaoh’s chariots

and his army into the sea;

the elite of his officers

were drowned in the Red Sea.^p

⁵The floods covered them;

they sank to the depths like a stone.^q

⁶Lord, your right hand is glorious in power.

Lord, your right hand shattered the enemy.^r

⁷You overthrew your adversaries

by your great majesty.

You unleashed your burning wrath;

it consumed them like stubble.^s

⁸The water heaped up^t at the blast from your nostrils;

the currents stood firm like a dam.

The watery depths congealed in the heart of the sea.

⁹The enemy said:

“I will pursue, I will overtake,

I will divide the spoil.^u

My desire will be gratified at their expense.

I will draw my sword;

my hand will destroy^B them.”

¹⁰But you blew with your breath,

and the sea covered them.

They sank like lead

in the mighty waters.

¹¹Lord, who is like you among the gods?

Who is like you, glorious in holiness,^a

revered with praises, performing wonders?^b

¹²You stretched out your right hand,

and the earth swallowed them.

¹³With your faithful love, you will lead the people

you have redeemed;

you will guide them to your holy dwelling

with your strength.^c
