Exodus 15

Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto Jehovah, and spake, saying,

Jehovah is my strength and song,

Jehovah is a man of war:

Pharaoh’s chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea;

The deeps cover them:

Thy right hand, O Jehovah, is glorious in power,

And in the greatness of thine excellency thou overthrowest them that rise up against thee:

And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were piled up,

The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil;

Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them:

Who is like unto thee, O Jehovah, among the gods?

Thou stretchedst out thy right hand,

Thou in thy lovingkindness hast led the people that thou hast redeemed:

The peoples have heard, they tremble:

Then were the chiefs of Edom dismayed;

Terror and dread falleth upon them;

Thou wilt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance,

Jehovah shall reign for ever and ever.

For the horses of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Jehovah brought back the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel walked on dry land in the midst of the sea.

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.

And Miriam answered them,

And Moses led Israel onward 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.

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.

And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?

And he cried unto Jehovah; and Jehovah showed him a tree, and he cast it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them;

and he said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his eyes, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon thee, which I have put upon the Egyptians: for I am Jehovah that healeth thee.

And they came to Elim, where were twelve springs of water, and threescore and ten palm-trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
