Exodus 15:1–12

The Song of Moses

15Then ^aMoses and the children of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and spoke, saying:

“I will ^bsing to the Lord,

For He has triumphed gloriously!

The horse and its rider

He has thrown into the sea!

²The Lord is my strength and ^csong,

And He has become my salvation;

He is my God, and ^dI will praise Him;

My ^efather’s God, and I ^fwill exalt Him.

³The Lord is a man of ^gwar;

The Lord is His ^hname.

⁴ⁱPharaoh’s chariots and his army He has cast into the sea;

^jHis chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea.

⁵The depths have covered them;

^kThey sank to the bottom like a stone.

⁶“Your ^lright hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power;

Your right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces.

⁷And in the greatness of Your ^mexcellence

You have overthrown those who rose against You;

You sent forth ⁿYour wrath;

It ^oconsumed them ^plike stubble.

⁸And ^qwith the blast of Your nostrils

The waters were gathered together;

^rThe floods stood upright like a heap;

The depths ¹congealed in the heart of the sea.

^9sThe enemy said, ‘I will pursue,

I will overtake,

I will ^tdivide the spoil;

My desire shall be satisfied on them.

I will draw my sword,

My hand shall destroy them.’

¹⁰You blew with Your wind,

The sea covered them;

They sank like lead in the mighty waters.

¹¹“Who ^uis like You, O Lord, among the ²gods?

Who is like You, ^vglorious in holiness,

Fearful in ^wpraises, ^xdoing wonders?

¹²You stretched out Your right hand;

The earth swallowed them.
