New Testament

Exodus 15:6-18 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

6. Your right hand, O Lord, magnificent in power,your right hand, O Lord, shattered the enemy.

7. In your great majesty you overthrew your adversaries;you loosed your wrath to consume them like stubble.

8. At the blast of your nostrils the waters piled up,the flowing waters stood like a mound,the flood waters foamed in the midst of the sea.

9. The enemy boasted, “I will pursue and overtake them;I will divide the spoils and have my fill of them;I will draw my sword; my hand will despoil them!”

10. When you blew with your breath, the sea covered them;like lead they sank in the mighty waters.

11. Who is like you among the gods, O Lord?Who is like you, magnificent among the holy ones?Awe-inspiring in deeds of renown, worker of wonders,

12. when you stretched out your right hand, the earth swallowed them!

13. In your love you led the people you redeemed;in your strength you guided them to your holy dwelling.

14. The peoples heard and quaked;anguish gripped the dwellers in Philistia.

15. Then were the chieftains of Edom dismayed,the nobles of Moab seized by trembling;All the inhabitants of Canaan melted away;

16. terror and dread fell upon them.By the might of your arm they became silent like stone,while your people, Lord, passed over,while the people whom you created passed over.

17. You brought them in, you planted themon the mountain that is your own—The place you made the base of your throne, Lord,the sanctuary, Lord, your hands established.

18. May the Lord reign forever and ever!
