XV. Then sang aMoses and the children of Israel this song unto the Lord, and spake, saying,

I will bsing unto the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously:

The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

2  The Lord is my strength and csong,

And he is become my dsalvation:

He is my God, and I will prepare him a habitation;

My efather’s God, and I fwill exalt him.

3  The Lord is a man of gwar: hThe Lord is his name.

4  iPharaoh’s chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea:

His chosen kcaptains also are drowned in the Red sea.

5  The depths lhave covered them:

mThey sank into the bottom as a stone.

6  nThy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power:

Thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

7  And in the greatness of thine oexcellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee:

Thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them pas stubble.

8  And qwith the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together,

rThe floods stood upright as a heap,

And the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

9  The enemy said, sI will pursue, I will overtake,

I will tdivide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them;

I will draw my sword, my hand shall * destroy them.

10  Thou didst blow with thy wind, uthe sea covered them:

They sank as lead in the mighty waters.

11  xWho is like unto thee, O Lord, among the * gods?

Who is like thee, glorious in holiness,

Fearful in praises, ydoing wonders?

12  Thou stretchedst out zthy right hand,

The earth swallowed them.

13  Thou in thy mercy hast aled forth the people which bthou hast redeemed:

Thou hast cguided them in thy strength unto thy holy dhabitation.

14  eThe people shall hear, and be afraid:

fSorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.

15  Then gthe dukes of Edom hshall be amazed;

The mighty men iof Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them;

All the inhabitants of Canaan shall kmelt away.

16  lFear and mdread shall fall upon them;

By the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still nas a stone;

Till thy people pass over, O Lord,

Till the people pass over, which othou hast purchased.

17  Thou shalt bring them in, and pplant them in the mountain of thine inheritance,

In the place, O Lord, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in,

In the qSanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.

18  rThe Lord shall reign for ever and ever.

19 For the shorse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and tthe Lord brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea. 20 And Miriam uthe prophetess, wthe sister of Aaron, xtook a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her ywith timbrels and zwith dances. 21 And Miriam aanswered them,

bSing ye to the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously;

The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of cShur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water. 23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called * Marah. 24 And the people dmurmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? 25 And he ecried unto the Lord; and the Lord shewed him fa tree, gwhich when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he hmade for them a statute and an ordinance, and there ihe proved them, 26 and said, kIf thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these ldiseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord mthat healeth thee. 27 nAnd they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
