1. Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and said,“I will sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously.The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.
2. The Lord is my strength and song.He has become my salvation [yeshu`ah].This is my God, and I will praise him;my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
3. The Lord is a man of war.The Lord is his name.
4. He has cast Pharaoh’s chariots and his army into the sea.His chosen captains are sunk in the Sea of Suf.
5. The deeps cover them.They went down into the depths like a stone.
6. Your right hand, Lord, is glorious in power.Your right hand, Lord, dashes the enemy in pieces.
7. In the greatness of your excellency, you overthrow those who rise up against you.You send out your wrath. It consumes them as stubble.
8. With the blast of your nostrils, the waters were piled up.The floods stood upright as a heap.The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9. The enemy said, ‘I will pursue. I will overtake. I will divide the plunder.My desire shall be satisfied on them.I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.’
10. You blew with your wind.The sea covered them.They sank like lead in the mighty waters.
11. Who is like you, Lord, among the gods?Who is like you, glorious in holiness,fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12. You stretched out your right hand.The earth swallowed them.
13. “You, in your loving kindness, have led the people that you have redeemed.You have guided them in your strength to your holy habitation.
14. The peoples have heard.They tremble.Pangs have taken hold on the inhabitants of Philistia.
