Exodus 15
|
| Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto Jehovah, and spake, saying, I will sing unto Jehovah, for he hath triumphed gloriously: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. | Then Moses and the children of Israel made this song to the Lord, and said, I will make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory: the horse and the horseman he has sent down into the sea. |
| Jehovah is my strength and song, And he is become my salvation: This is my God, and I will praise him; My father's God, and I will exalt him. | The Lord is my strength and my strong helper, he has become my salvation: he is my God and I will give him praise; my father's God and I will give him glory. |
| Jehovah is a man of war: Jehovah is his name. | The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name. |
| Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea; And his chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea. | Pharaoh's war-carriages and his army he has sent down into the sea: the best of his captains have gone down into the Red Sea. |
| The deeps cover them: They went down into the depths like a stone. | They were covered by the deep waters: like a stone they went down under the waves. |
| Thy right hand, O Jehovah, is glorious in power, Thy right hand, O Jehovah, dasheth in pieces the enemy. | Full of glory, O Lord, is the power of your right hand; by your right hand those who came against you are broken. |
| And in the greatness of thine excellency thou overthrowest them that rise up against thee: Thou sendest forth thy wrath, it consumeth them as stubble. | When you are lifted up in power, all those who come against you are crushed: when you send out your wrath, they are burned up like dry grass. |
| And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were piled up, The floods stood upright as a heap; The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea. | By your breath the waves were massed together, the flowing waters were lifted up like a pillar; the deep waters became solid in the heart of the sea. |
| The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; My desire shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them. | Egypt said, I will go after them, I will overtake, I will make division of their goods: my desire will have its way with them; my sword will be uncovered, my hand will send destruction on them. |
| Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: They sank as lead in the mighty waters. | You sent your wind and the sea came over them: they went down like lead into the great waters. |
| Who is like unto thee, O Jehovah, among the gods? Who is like thee, glorious in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders? | Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? who is like you, in holy glory, to be praised with fear, doing wonders? |
| Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, The earth swallowed them. | When your right hand was stretched out, the mouth of the earth was open for them. |
| Thou in thy lovingkindness hast led the people that thou hast redeemed: Thou hast guided them in thy strength to thy holy habitation. | In your mercy you went before the people whom you have made yours; guiding them in your strength to your holy place. |
| The peoples have heard, they tremble: Pangs have taken hold on the inhabitants of Philistia. | Hearing of you the peoples were shaking in fear: the people of Philistia were gripped with pain. |
| Then were the chiefs of Edom dismayed; The mighty men of Moab, trembling taketh hold upon them: All the inhabitants of Canaan are melted away. | The chiefs of Edom were troubled in heart; the strong men of Moab were in the grip of fear: all the people of Canaan became like water. |
| Terror and dread falleth upon them; By the greatness of thine arm they are as still as a stone; Till thy people pass over, O Jehovah, Till the people pass over that thou hast purchased. | Fear and grief came on them; by the strength of your arm they were turned to stone; till your people went over, O Lord, till the people went over whom you have made yours. |
| Thou wilt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, The place, O Jehovah, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, The sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established. | You will take them in, planting them in the mountain of your heritage, the place, O Lord, where you have made your house, the holy place, O Lord, the building of your hands. |
| Jehovah shall reign for ever and ever. | The Lord is King for ever and ever. |
| For the horses of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Jehovah brought back the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel walked on dry land in the midst of the sea. | For the horses of Pharaoh, with his war-carriages and his horsemen, went into the sea, and the Lord sent the waters of the sea back over them; but the children of Israel went through the sea on dry land. |
| And 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. | And Miriam, the woman prophet, the sister of Aaron, took an instrument of music in her hand; and all the women went after her with music and dances. |
| And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to Jehovah, for he hath triumphed gloriously; The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. | And Miriam, answering, said, Make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory; the horse and the horseman he has sent into the sea. |
| And Moses led Israel onward 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. | Then Moses took Israel forward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the waste land of Shur; and for three days they were in the waste land where there was no water. |
| And 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. | And when they came to Marah, the water was no good for drinking, for the waters of Marah were bitter, which is why it was named Marah. |
| And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? | And the people, crying out against Moses, said, What are we to have for drink? |
| An he cried unto Jehovah; And Jehovah showed him a tree, and he cast it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them; | And in answer to his prayer, the Lord made him see a tree, and when he put it into the water, the water was made sweet. There he gave them a law and an order, testing them; |
| and he said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his eyes, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon thee, which I have put upon the Egyptians: for I am Jehovah that healeth thee. | And he said, If with all your heart you will give attention to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his eyes, giving ear to his orders and keeping his laws, I will not put on you any of the diseases which I put on the Egyptians: for I am the Lord your life-giver. |
| And they came to Elim, where were twelve springs of water, and threescore and ten palm-trees: and they encamped there by the waters. | And they came to Elim where there were twelve water-springs and seventy palm-trees: and they put up their tents there by the waters. |
