But overthrew

He led them safely, and they were not afraid;
but the sea covered their enemies.

He sent signs and wonders against you, Egypt,
against Pharaoh and all his officials.

He threw Pharaoh’s chariots
and his army into the sea;
the elite of his officers
were drowned in the Red Sea.

You performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh,
all his officials, and all the people of his land,
for You knew how arrogantly they treated our ancestors.
You made a name for Yourself
that endures to this day.

For his mercy

You answer us in righteousness,
with awe-inspiring works,
God of our salvation,
the hope of all the ends of the earth
and of the distant seas.

Pour out Your wrath on the nations
that don’t acknowledge You,
on the kingdoms that don’t call on Your name,

and in Your faithful love destroy my enemies.
Wipe out all those who attack me,
for I am Your servant.

You stretched out Your right hand,
and the earth swallowed them.

salvation from our enemies
and from the clutches of those who hate us.
