Exodus 15:1–12

¹Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song to Jehovah, and spoke, saying, I will sing unto Jehovah, for he is highly exalted: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. ²My strength and song is Jah, and he is become my salvation: This is my •God, and I will glorify him; My father’s God, and I will extol him. ³Jehovah is a man of war; Jehovah, his name. ⁴Pharaoh’s chariots and his army hath he cast into the sea; His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea. ⁵The depths covered them; they sank to the bottom as a stone. ⁶Thy right hand, Jehovah, is become glorious in power: Thy right hand, Jehovah, hath dashed in pieces the enemy. ⁷And by the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown thine adversaries: Thou sentest forth thy burning wrath, it consumed them as stubble. ⁸And by the breath of thy nostrils the waters were heaped up; The streams stood as a mound; The depths were congealed in the heart of the sea. ⁹The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my soul shall be sated upon them; I will unsheath my sword, my hand shall dispossess them. ¹⁰Thou didst blow with thy breath, the sea covered them; They sank as lead in the mighty waters. ¹¹Who is like unto thee, Jehovah, among the gods? Who is like unto thee, glorifying thyself in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders? ¹²Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
