1 | Then
sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake,
saying, I will sing 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 song, and he is become my
salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God,
and I will exalt him. |
3 |
The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name. |
4 | Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the
sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea. |
5 | The depths have covered them: they sank
into the bottom as a stone. |
6 |
Thy 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 excellency thou hast
overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which
consumed them as stubble. |
8 |
And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the
floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of
the sea. |
9 | The enemy
said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide 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,
the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters. |
11 | Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among
the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing
wonders? |
12 | Thou
stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them. |
13 | Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the
people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy
holy habitation. |
14 | The
people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of
Palestina. |
15 | Then the
dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take
hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away. |
16 | Fear and dread shall fall upon them;
by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy
people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass over, which thou hast
purchased. |
17 | Thou shalt
bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the
place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O
LORD, which thy hands have established. |
18 |
The LORD shall reign for ever and ever.
Rev 11:15
|
19 | For the horse of Pharaoh went in
with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the 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 the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her
hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. |
21 | And Miriam answered them,
Sing 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 Shur; 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 murmured against Moses, saying,
What shall we drink? |
25 |
And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD showed him a tree, which when he had
cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a
statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them, |
26 | And said, If 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 diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am
the LORD that healeth thee. |
27
| And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and
threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters. |
