Exodus 14:22–29

²²and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with the waters like a wall to them on their right and their left. ^g

²³The Egyptians set out in pursuit—all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen—and went into the sea after them. ²⁴Then during the morning watch, the Lord looked down on the Egyptian forces from the pillar of fire ^hand cloud, and threw them into confusion. ²⁵He caused their chariot wheels to swerve ^ijand made them drive ^kwith difficulty. “Let’s get away from Israel,” the Egyptians said, “because Yahweh is fighting for them against Egypt!”

²⁶Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea so that the waters may come back on the Egyptians, on their chariots and horsemen.” ²⁷So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the sea returned to its normal depth. While the Egyptians were trying to escape from it, the Lord threw them into the sea. ^l28The waters came back and covered the chariots ^mand horsemen, the entire army of Pharaoh, that had gone after them into the sea. None of them survived.

²⁹But the Israelites had walked through the sea on dry ground, with the waters like a wall to them on their right and their left.
