1. Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord. They said:I will sing to the Lord,for He is highly exalted;He has thrown the horseand its rider into the sea.
2. The Lord is my strength and my song; He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise Him,my father’s God, and I will exalt Him.
3. The Lord is a warrior; Yahweh is His name.
4. He threw Pharaoh’s chariotsand his army into the sea;the elite of his officerswere drowned in the Red Sea.
5. The floods covered them;they sank to the depths like a stone.
6. Lord, Your right hand is glorious in power.Lord, Your right hand shattered the enemy.
7. You overthrew Your adversariesby Your great majesty.You unleashed Your burning wrath;it consumed them like stubble.
8. The waters heaped up at the blast of Your nostrils;the currents stood firm like a dam.The watery depths congealed in the heart of the sea.
9. The enemy said:“I will pursue, I will overtake,I will divide the spoil. My desire will be gratified at their expense.I will draw my sword;my hand will destroy them.”
10. But You blew with Your breath,and the sea covered them.They sank like leadin the mighty waters.
11. Lord, who is like You among the gods?Who is like You, glorious in holiness, revered with praises, performing wonders?
12. You stretched out Your right hand,and the earth swallowed them.
13. You will lead the peopleYou have redeemedwith Your faithful love;You will guide them to Your holy dwellingwith Your strength.
