Our fathers, in Egypt, understood not thy wonders, They remembered not the abounding of thy lovingkindnesses, but rebelled by the sea - at the Red Sea. Yet he saved them, for the sake of his Name, to make known his mighty power; So he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up, And he led them through deeps, as pasture-land; read more.
And saved them from the hand of one full of hatred, And redeemed them out of the hand of the foe; So the waters covered their adversaries, Not one from among them, was left. They believed therefore in his words, They sang his praise. Soon forgat they his works, - They waited not for his counsel; But lusted a lust in the desert, and tested GOD in the waste. So he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul. And they became jealous of Moses in the camp, - of Aaron the holy one of Yahweh; The earth opened and engulfed Dathan, and covered up the assembly of Abiram; Then was kindled a fire in their assembly, - a flame, consumed the lawless ones. They made a calf in Horeb, - and bowed down to a molten image; Thus changed they my glory, for the similitude of an ox that eateth grass. They forgat GOD their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt: Wonders in the land of Ham, Terrible things by the Red Sea. Then would he have bidden to destroy them, - had not Moses his chosen, stood in the breach before him, To turn back his wrath from destroying. And they refused the delightful land, They believed not his word; But murmured in their tents, - They hearkened note unto the voice of Yahweh. So he lifted up his hand unto them, that he would let them fall in the desert; And would disperse their seed among the nations, and would scatter them throughout the lands. Yet they let themselves be bound to Baal-peor, - and did eat sacrifices to the dead: So they provoked to anger by their doings, and a plague, made a breach among them. Then stood up Phinehas, and interposed, and stayed was the plague: So it was counted unto him, for righteousness, To generation after generation, unto times age abiding. And they provoked by the waters of Meribah, - And it fared ill with Moses, for their sakes; For they embittered his spirit, and he spake rashly with his lips. They destroyed not the peoples of which Yahweh had spoken to them; But had fellowship with the nations, and learned their doings; Yea they served their idols, and they became to them a snare: Yea they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to mischievous demons; And poured out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, And the land was polluted with blood-shed; And they became unclean by their works, and became unchaste in their doings.

And the Egyptians pursued, and entered after them - all the horses of Pharaoh his chariots and his horsemen, - into the midst of the sea. And it came to pass in the morning watch, that Yahweh looked down into the camp of the Egyptians, through the pillar of fire and cloud, and confused the camp of the Egyptians; and he took off the wheels of their chariots, and made them drive heavily, - so that the Egyptians said - We must flee from the face of Israel, for Yahweh, is fighting for them against the Egyptians. read more.
Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Stretch forth thy hand over the sea, - that the waters may return upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen. So Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea and the sea returned, towards morning, to its steady flow, when the Egyptians, were fleeing to meet it, - thus Yahweh shook off the Egyptians into the midst of the sea; thus the waters returned and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, even all the forces of Pharaoh that were entering after them into the sea, - there was not left remaining among them so much as one.

And it was told the king of Egypt, that the people had fled, - and the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people, and they said - What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us? So he yoked his chariot, - and his people, took he with him. And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, - with warriors in every one. read more.
And Yahweh let the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt wax bold, and he pursued the sons of Israel, - when the sons of Israel, were going out with a high hand. So the Egyptians pursued them and overtook them, encamping by the sea - all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his forces, - by Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon. Now when, Pharaoh, had drawn near, the sons of Israel lifted up their eyes, and lo! the Egyptians, moving along after them and they feared greatly, and the sons of Israel made outcry unto Yahweh. Then said they unto Moses, Was it because there were no graves in Egypt, that thou didst fetch us to die in the desert? What is this thou hast done to us, bringing us forth out of Egypt? Is not this the word which we spake unto thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians, - for it is better for us, to serve the Egyptians, than to die in the desert? And Moses said unto the people - Do not fear, stand still and see the salvation of Yahweh, which be will work for you to-day, - for as for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to-day, ye shall not again see them any more to times age-abiding. Yahweh, will fight for you, - and, ye, shall forbear. And Yahweh said unto Moses, What outcry wouldst thou make unto me? Speak unto the sons of Israel, that they go forward; and, thou, lift high thy staff and stretch forth thy hand over the sea and cleave it asunder, - that the sons of Israel may enter into the midst of the sea on dry ground; and, I, behold me letting the heart of the Egyptians wax bold, that they may enter after them, - that I may get me honour over Pharaoh and over his forces, over his chariots, and over his horsemen, And the Egyptians shall know, that, I, am Yahweh, - when I have gotten me honour over Pharaoh, over his chariots and over his horsemen. And the messenger of God who was going on before the camp of Israel removed, and came on behind them, - and the pillar of cloud removed from before them, and stood behind them; so it came in between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, so it became a cloud and darkness, and yet lighted up the night, - so that the one came not near unto the other, all the night. And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and Yahweh carried away the sea by a mighty east wind all the night, and turned the sea into dry land, - and the waters were cloven asunder. Then went the sons of Israel into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, - and, the waters, to them, were a wall, on their right hand and on their left. And the Egyptians pursued, and entered after them - all the horses of Pharaoh his chariots and his horsemen, - into the midst of the sea. And it came to pass in the morning watch, that Yahweh looked down into the camp of the Egyptians, through the pillar of fire and cloud, and confused the camp of the Egyptians; and he took off the wheels of their chariots, and made them drive heavily, - so that the Egyptians said - We must flee from the face of Israel, for Yahweh, is fighting for them against the Egyptians. Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Stretch forth thy hand over the sea, - that the waters may return upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen. So Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea and the sea returned, towards morning, to its steady flow, when the Egyptians, were fleeing to meet it, - thus Yahweh shook off the Egyptians into the midst of the sea; thus the waters returned and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, even all the forces of Pharaoh that were entering after them into the sea, - there was not left remaining among them so much as one. But the sons of Israel, had gone their way on dry ground in the saidst of the sea, - and the waters had been to them a wall, on their right hand and on their left. Thus did Yahweh, on that day, save Israel, out of the hand of the Egyptians, - and Israel saw the Egyptians, dead on the shore of the sea.

And saved them from the hand of one full of hatred, And redeemed them out of the hand of the foe; So the waters covered their adversaries, Not one from among them, was left.
