1Then Moses and the people of Israel sang this song to the Lord, saying, “I will sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider[1] he has thrown into the sea. (Ex 15:21; Jud 5:1; 2Sa 22:1; Ps 106:12)2The Lord is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. (Ex 3:6; Ex 3:15; De 10:21; 2Sa 22:47; Ps 18:1; Ps 18:46; Ps 34:3; Ps 59:17; Ps 99:5; Ps 99:9; Ps 109:1; Ps 118:14; Ps 118:28; Ps 140:7; Ps 145:1; Isa 12:2; Isa 25:1; Hab 3:18)3The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is his name. (Ex 3:15; Ex 6:3; Ps 24:8; Ps 83:18; Isa 42:8; Mal 3:6; Re 19:11)4“Pharaoh’s chariots and his host he cast into the sea, and his chosen officers were sunk in the Red Sea. (Ex 14:7; Ex 14:28)5The floods covered them; they went down into the depths like a stone. (Ex 14:28; Ex 15:10; Ne 9:11)6Your right hand, O Lord, glorious in power, your right hand, O Lord, shatters the enemy. (Ex 15:12; Ps 2:9; Ps 118:15; Isa 51:9; Re 2:27)7In the greatness of your majesty you overthrow your adversaries; you send out your fury; it consumes them like stubble. (De 33:26; Isa 5:24; Isa 47:14; Mal 4:1)8At the blast of your nostrils the waters piled up; the floods stood up in a heap; the deeps congealed in the heart of the sea. (Ex 14:21; Jos 3:16; 2Sa 22:16; Job 4:9; Ps 18:15; Ps 78:13; Hab 3:10; 2Th 2:8)9The enemy said, ‘I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil, my desire shall have its fill of them. I will draw my sword; my hand shall destroy them.’ (Ge 49:27; Ex 14:9; Jud 5:30; Isa 53:12; Lu 11:22)10You blew with your wind; the sea covered them; they sank like lead in the mighty waters. (Ex 14:21; Ex 14:28; Ex 15:5; Isa 11:15; Isa 40:24)11“Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders? (De 3:24; 1Sa 2:2; 2Sa 7:22; 1Ki 8:23; 2Ch 6:14; Ps 77:14; Isa 6:3; Jer 10:6; Re 4:8)12You stretched out your right hand; the earth swallowed them. (Ex 15:6)13“You have led in your steadfast love the people whom you have redeemed; you have guided them by your strength to your holy abode. (Ps 77:15; Ps 77:20; Ps 78:54)14The peoples have heard; they tremble; pangs have seized the inhabitants of Philistia. (Nu 14:14; De 2:25; Jos 2:9; Jos 9:24)15Now are the chiefs of Edom dismayed; trembling seizes the leaders of Moab; all the inhabitants of Canaan have melted away. (Nu 22:3; De 2:4; Jos 2:9; Jos 2:11; Jos 2:24; Jos 5:1)16Terror and dread fall upon them; because of the greatness of your arm, they are still as a stone, till your people, O Lord, pass by, till the people pass by whom you have purchased. (De 2:25; De 11:25; 1Sa 25:37; Ps 74:2; 1Pe 2:9)17You will bring them in and plant them on your own mountain, the place, O Lord, which you have made for your abode, the sanctuary, O Lord, which your hands have established. (Ps 44:2; Ps 78:54; Ps 80:8; Ps 132:13; Jer 32:41)18The Lord will reign forever and ever.” (Ps 10:16; Ps 29:10; Ps 45:6; Ps 146:10; Re 11:15)19For when the horses of Pharaoh with his chariots and his horsemen went into the sea, the Lord brought back the waters of the sea upon them, but the people of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst of the sea. (Ex 14:23; Ex 14:28)20Then Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a tambourine in her hand, and all the women went out after her with tambourines and dancing. (Ex 2:4; Nu 26:59; Jud 4:4; Jud 11:34; 1Sa 18:6; 2Ki 22:14; Ne 6:14; Ps 68:25; Ps 149:3; Ps 150:4; Mic 6:4; Lu 2:36)21And Miriam sang to them: “Sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.” (Ex 15:1)
Bitter Water Made Sweet
22Then Moses made Israel set out from the Red Sea, and they went into the wilderness of Shur. They went three days in the wilderness and found no water. (Ge 16:7; Ge 25:18; 1Sa 15:7)23When they came to Marah, they could not drink the water of Marah because it was bitter; therefore it was named Marah.[2] (Ru 1:20)24And the people grumbled against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?” (Ex 16:2; Ex 17:3)25And he cried to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a log,[3] and he threw it into the water, and the water became sweet. There the Lord[4] made for them a statute and a rule, and there he tested them, (Ex 14:10; Ex 16:4; Ex 17:4; De 8:2; De 8:16; Jud 2:22; Jud 3:1; Jud 3:4; 2Ki 2:21; 2Ki 4:41; Ps 66:10)26saying, “If you will diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do that which is right in his eyes, and give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you that I put on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, your healer.” (Ex 23:25; Le 26:3; De 7:12; De 28:27; De 28:60; Ps 103:3; Ps 147:3; Ho 6:1)27Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees, and they encamped there by the water. (Nu 33:9)
Exodus 15
King James Version
1Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.2The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father' God, and I will exalt him.3The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.4Pharaoh' chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.5The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.6Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.7And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.8And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.9The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.10Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.11Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?12Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.13Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.14The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.15Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.16Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.17Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.18The LORD shall reign for ever and ever.19For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.20And 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.21And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.22So Moses brought Israel 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.23And 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.24And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?25And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,26And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.27And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
