The Song of Moses

15 Then Moses and the people of Israel fsang this song to the Lord, saying,

g“I will sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously;

the horse and his rider1 he has thrown into the sea.

2  hThe Lord is my strength and my isong,

and he has become jmy salvation;

this is my God, and I will praise him,

kmy father’s God, and lI will exalt him.

3  The Lord is ma man of war;

nthe Lord is his name.

4  o“Pharaoh’s chariots and his host he cast into the sea,

and his chosen pofficers were sunk in the Red Sea.

5  The qfloods covered them;

they rwent down into the depths like a stone.

6  sYour right hand, O Lord, glorious in power,

your right hand, O Lord, tshatters the enemy.

7  In the ugreatness of your majesty you overthrow your adversaries;

you send out your fury; it vconsumes them like stubble.

8  At the wblast of your nostrils the waters piled up;

the xfloods stood up in a heap;

the deeps congealed in the heart of the sea.

9  The enemy said, y‘I will pursue, I will overtake,

I zwill divide the spoil, my desire shall have its fill of them.

I will draw my sword; my hand shall destroy them.’
