Exodus 14:19–25

^19aThe angel of God, who had been going before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them and stood behind them.

²⁰So it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud ¹along with the darkness, yet it gave light at night. Thus the one did not come near the other all night.

^21aThen Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord ¹swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night and turned the sea into ^bdry land, so ^cthe waters were divided.

^22aThe sons of Israel ¹went through the midst of the sea on the dry land, and ^bthe waters were like a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.

²³Then ^athe Egyptians took up the pursuit, and all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots and his horsemen went in after them into the midst of the sea.

²⁴At the morning watch, ^athe Lord looked down on the ¹army of the Egyptians ²through the pillar of fire and cloud and brought the army of the Egyptians into confusion.

²⁵He ¹caused their chariot wheels to swerve, and He made them drive with difficulty; so the Egyptians said, “Let ²us flee from Israel, ^afor the Lord is fighting for them against the Egyptians.”
