Exodus 15

1Then singeth Moses and the sons of Israel this song to Jehovah, and they speak, saying: --`I sing to Jehovah, For triumphing He hath triumphed; The horse and its rider He hath thrown into the sea.

1Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song to Jehovah, and spoke, saying, I will sing unto Jehovah, for he is highly exalted: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

4Chariots of Pharaoh and his force He hath cast into the sea; And the choice of his captains Have sunk in the Red Sea!

4Pharaoh's chariots and his army hath he cast into the sea; His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea.

5The depths do cover them; They went down into the depths as a stone.

5The depths covered them; they sank to the bottom as a stone.

6Thy right hand, O Jehovah, Is become honourable in power; Thy right hand, O Jehovah, Doth crush an enemy.

6Thy right hand, Jehovah, is become glorious in power: Thy right hand, Jehovah, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

7And in the abundance of Thine excellency Thou throwest down Thy withstanders, Thou sendest forth Thy wrath--It consumeth them as stubble.

7And by the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown thine adversaries: Thou sentest forth thy burning wrath, it consumed them as stubble.

8And by the spirit of Thine anger Have waters been heaped together; Stood as a heap have flowings; Congealed have been depths In the heart of a sea.

8And by the breath of thy nostrils the waters were heaped up; The streams stood as a mound; The depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

9The enemy said, I pursue, I overtake; I apportion spoil; Filled is my soul with them; I draw out my sword; My hand destroyeth them: --

9The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my soul shall be sated upon them; I will unsheath my sword, my hand shall dispossess them.

10Thou hast blown with Thy wind The sea hath covered them; They sank as lead in mighty waters.

10Thou didst blow with thy breath, the sea covered them; They sank as lead in the mighty waters.

11Who <FI>is<Fi> like Thee among the gods, O Jehovah? Who <FI>is<Fi> like Thee--honourable in holiness--Fearful in praises--doing wonders?

11Who is like unto thee, Jehovah, among thegods? Who is like unto thee, glorifying thyself in holiness, Fearful [in] praises, doing wonders?

12Thou hast stretched out Thy right hand--Earth swalloweth them!

12Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.

13Thou hast led forth in Thy kindness The people whom Thou hast redeemed. Thou hast led on in Thy strength Unto Thy holy habitation.

13Thou by thy mercy hast led forth the people that thou hast redeemed; Thou hast guided them by thy strength unto the abode of thy holiness.

14Peoples have heard, they are troubled; Pain hath seized inhabitants of Philistia.

14The peoples heard it, they were afraid: A thrill seized the inhabitants of Philistia.

15Then have chiefs of Edom been troubled: Mighty ones of Moab--Trembling doth seize them! Melted have all inhabitants of Canaan!

15Then the princes of Edom were amazed; The mighty men of Moab, trembling hath seized them; All the inhabitants of Canaan melted away.

16Fall on them doth terror and dread; By the greatness of Thine arm They are still as a stone, Till Thy people pass over, O Jehovah; Till the people pass over Whom Thou hast purchased.

16Fear and dread fall upon them; By the greatness of thine arm they are still as a stone; Till thy people pass over, Jehovah, Till the people pass over that thou hast purchased.

17Thou dost bring them in, And dost plant them In a mountain of Thine inheritance, A fixed place for Thy dwelling Thou hast made, O Jehovah; A sanctuary, O Lord, Thy hands have established;

17Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, The place that thou, Jehovah, hast made thy dwelling, The Sanctuary, Lord, that thy hands have prepared.

18Jehovah reigneth--to the age, and for ever!'

18Jehovah shall reign for ever and ever!
