* Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the LORD , and spoke , saying : "I will sing to the LORD , For He has triumphed gloriously ! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea ! * The LORD is my strength and song , And He has become my salvation ; He is my God , and I will praise Him ; My father 's God , and I will exalt Him . * The LORD is a man of war ; The LORD is His name . * Pharaoh 's chariots and his army He has cast into the sea ; His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea . * The depths have covered them ; They sank to the bottom like a stone . * "Your right hand , O LORD , has become glorious in power ; Your right hand , O LORD , has dashed the enemy in pieces . * And in the greatness of Your excellence You have overthrown those who rose against You ; You sent forth Your wrath ; It consumed them like stubble . * And with the blast of Your nostrils The waters were gathered together ; The floods stood upright like a heap ; The depths congealed in the heart of the sea . * The enemy said , "I will pursue , I will overtake , I will divide the spoil ; My desire shall be satisfied on them . I will draw my sword , My hand shall destroy them .' * You blew with Your wind , The sea covered them ; They sank like lead in the mighty waters . * "Who is like You , O LORD , among the gods ? Who is like You , glorious in holiness , Fearful in praises , doing wonders ? * You stretched out Your right hand ; The earth swallowed them . * You in Your mercy have led forth The people whom You have redeemed ; You have guided them in Your strength To Your holy habitation . * "The people will hear and be afraid ; Sorrow will take hold of the inhabitants of Philistia . * Then the chiefs of Edom will be dismayed ; 1 The mighty men of Moab , Trembling will take hold of them ; All the inhabitants of Canaan will melt away . * Fear and dread will fall on them ; By the greatness of Your arm They will be as still as a stone , Till Your people pass over , O LORD , Till the people pass over Whom You have purchased . * You will bring them in and plant them In the mountain of Your inheritance , In the place , O LORD , which You have made For Your own dwelling , The sanctuary , O LORD , which Your hands have established . * "The LORD shall reign forever and ever ." * For the horses of Pharaoh went with his chariots and his horsemen into the sea , and the LORD brought back the waters of the sea upon them . But the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea . * Then Miriam the prophetess , the sister of Aaron , took the timbrel in her hand ; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances . * And Miriam answered them : "Sing to the LORD , For He has triumphed gloriously ! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea !" * So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea ; then they went out into the Wilderness of Shur . And they went three days in the wilderness and found no water . * Now when they came to Marah , they could not drink the waters of Marah , for they were bitter . Therefore the name of it was called Marah . * And the people complained against Moses , saying , "What shall we drink ?" * So he cried out to the LORD , and the LORD showed him a tree . When he cast it into the waters , the waters were made sweet . There He made a statute and an ordinance for them , and there He tested them , * and said , "If you diligently heed the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight , give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes , I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians . For I am the LORD who heals you ." * Then they came to Elim , where there were twelve wells of water and seventy palm trees ; so they camped there by the waters .
