Exodus 15:3-15 Common English Bible (CEB)

3. The Lord is a warrior;the Lord is his name.

4. Pharaoh’s chariots and his army he hurled into the sea;his elite captains were sunk in the Reed Sea.

5. The deep sea covered them;they sank into the deep waters like a stone.

6. Your strong hand, Lord, is dominant in power;your strong hand, Lord, shatters the enemy!

7. With your great surge you overthrow your opponents;you send out your hot anger; it burns them up like straw.

8. With the breath of your nostrils the waters swelled up,the floods surged up in a great wave;the deep waters foamed in the depths of the sea.

9. The enemy said, "I’ll pursue, I’ll overtake,I’ll divide the spoils of war.I’ll be overfilled with them.I’ll draw my sword; my hand will destroy them."

10. You blew with your wind; the sea covered over them.They sank like lead in the towering waters.

11. Who is like you among the gods, Lord?Who is like you, foremost in holiness,worthy of highest praise, doing awesome deeds?

12. You raised your strong hand;earth swallowed them up.

13. With your great loyalty you led the people you rescued;with your power you guided them to your sanctuary.

14. The peoples heard, they shook in terror;horror grabbed hold of Philistia’s inhabitants.

15. Then Edom’s tribal chiefs were terrified;panic grabbed hold of Moab’s rulers;all of Canaan’s inhabitants melted in fear.
