15Verse 1Then Moses sang, and the sons of Israel, this song to the Lord; and they said, Sing we to the Lord, for he is magnified gloriously; he hath cast down the horse and the horseman into the sea.Verse 2My strength and my praising is the Lord; and he is made to me into health. This is my God, and I shall glorify him; the God of my father, and I shall enhance or exalt him.Verse 3The Lord is a man-fighter, his name is Almighty;Verse 4he casted down into the sea the chariots of Pharaoh, and his host. His chosen princes were drowned in the Red Sea or the Sea of Reeds;Verse 5the deep waters covered them; they went down into the depth as a stone.Verse 6Lord, thy right hand is magnified in strength; Lord, thy right hand smote the enemy.Verse 7And in the multitude of thy glory, thou hast put down all thine adver-saries; thou sentest thine ire, that devoured them as stubble.Verse 8And waters were gathered [together] in the spirit of thy strong vengeance; [the] flowing water stood, [the] deep waters were gathered [together] in the midst of the sea.Verse 9The enemy said, I shall pursue, and I shall overtake; I shall part spoils, my soul, that is, my will, shall be fulfilled. I shall draw out my sword; mine hand shall slay them.Verse 10Thy spirit blew, and the sea covered them; they were drowned as lead in great waters.Verse 11Lord, who is like thee in strong men, who is like thee? thou art a great doer in holiness; fearful, and praiseable, and doing miracles.Verse 12Thou heldest forth thine hand, and the earth devoured them;Verse 13thou were leader in thy mercy to thy people, which thou again-boughtest; and thou hast borne him in thy strength to thine holy dwelling place.Verse 14Peoples went up, and were wroth; sorrows held the dwellers of Philistia.Verse 15Then the princes of Edom were troubled; trembling held the strong men of Moab. All the dwellers of Canaan dreaded, or were encumbered;Verse 16inward dread fall on them, and outward dread in the greatness of thine arm. Be they made unmoveable as a stone, till thy people pass, Lord; till thy people pass, whom thou wield-edest.Verse 17Thou shalt bring them in, and thou shalt plant them in the hill of thine heritage; in the most steadfast dwelling place which thou hast wrought, Lord; Lord, thy saintuary, which thine hands made steadfast.Verse 18The Lord shall reign without end, and over all things.Verse 19Forsooth Pharaoh, on horse, entered with his chariots and [his] horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought the waters of the sea on them; soothly the sons of Israel went by the dry place, in [the] midst of the sea.Verse 20Therefore Marie, the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a tympan in her hand, and all the women went out after her with tympans and companies;Verse 21to which she sang before, and said, Sing we to the Lord, for he is magnified gloriously; he hath cast down into the sea the horse and the rider of him.Verse 22Forsooth Moses took Israel from the Red Sea, and they went out into the desert of Shur; and they went three days by the wilderness, and they found not water.Verse 23And they came into Marah, and they might not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter; wherefore he putted a covenable name to the place, and called it Marah, that is, bitterness.Verse 24And the people grutched against Moses, and said, What shall we drink?Verse 25And Moses cried to the Lord, which showed to him a tree; and when he had put that tree into the waters, those [or they] were turned into sweetness. There the Lord ordained commandments and dooms to the people, and there he assayed the people,Verse 26and said, If thou shalt hear the voice of thy Lord God, and shalt do that that is rightful before him, and shalt obey to his commandments, and shalt keep all his behests, I shall not bring in on thee all the sickness, which I have put in Egypt, for I am thy Lord Saviour.Verse 27Forsooth the sons of Israel came into Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and seventy palm trees, and they setted tents beside the waters.
