13. Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will work for you today; for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall never see them again.
14. The Lord will fight for you, and you shall be still.”
15. The Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward.
16. Lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea, and divide it. Then the children of Israel shall go into the middle of the sea on dry ground.
17. Behold, I myself will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them. I will get myself honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.
18. The Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I have gotten myself honor over Pharaoh, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.”
19. The angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them, and stood behind them.
20. It came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. There was the cloud and the darkness, yet gave it light by night. One didn’t come near the other all night.
21. Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
22. The children of Israel went into the middle of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.
