15:1Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and said: ["Let us sing to the Lord: for gloriously he has been magnified, horse and rider he has thrown down into the sea. 15:2My strength, and my praise, is the Lord, and he has become salvation for me: this is my God, and I will glorify him: the God of my father, and I will exalt him. 15:3The Lord is like a man of war, Almighty is his name, the chariots of Pharaoh and his army he has thrown into the sea: his chosen princes have been drowned in the Red Sea. 15:5The depths have covered them; 15:5they have gone down into the deep like a stone.
15:6Your right hand, Lord, has been magnified in strength: your right hand, Lord, has struck the enemy. 15:7And in the abundance of your glory you have put down your adversaries: you have sent your anger, which has devoured them like stubble. 15:8And in the breath of your fury the waters have been gathered together: the flowing wave stood, the depths have been gathered in the middle of the sea. 15:9The enemy said: 'I will pursue and overtake, I will divide the spoils, my soul will be filled: I will draw my sword, my hand will kill them.' 15:10Your breath blew, and the sea covered them: they have been drowned like lead in the mighty waters.
15:11Who is like you among the strong, Lord? 15:11Who is like you, magnificent in holiness, terrible and praiseworthy, doing wonders? 15:12You have stretched out your hand, and the earth has devoured them. 15:13You have been a guide in your mercy to the people whom you have redeemed: and you have carried it in your strength, to your holy dwelling place. 15:14The peoples have gone up, and been angered: pains have seized the inhabitants of Philistia. 15:15Then the princes of Edom were thrown into confusion, trembling seized the strong men of Moab: all the inhabitants of Canaan stiffened. 15:16Let dread and fear rush upon them, in the greatness of your arm: let them become motionless like a stone, until your people pass over, Lord, until this your people passes over, which you have possessed.
15:17You will bring them in, and you will plant them on the mountain of your inheritance, your most firm dwelling place which you have made, Lord: your sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established. 15:18The Lord will reign for ever and beyond. 15:19For Pharaoh the horseman went in with his chariots and horsemen into the sea: and the Lord brought back upon them the waters of the sea: but the sons of Israel walked over dry ground in the middle of it."] So Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a tambourine in her hand: and all the women went out after her with tambourines and dances, and she led them in singing, saying: ["Let us sing to the Lord, for gloriously he has been magnified: horse and its rider he has thrown down into the sea."] And Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went out into the desert of Shur: and they walked for three days through the wilderness, and were not finding water.
15:23And they came into Marah, nor could they drink the waters of Marah, because they were bitter: whence he also put a fitting name on the place, calling it Marah, that is, bitterness. 15:24And the people murmured against Moses, saying: "What shall we drink?" 15:25But he cried out to the Lord, who showed him a piece of wood: and when he had put it into the waters, they were turned into sweetness: there he set for him precepts, and judgements, and there he tested him, saying: "If you hear the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right before him, and obey his commandments, and keep all his precepts, all the sickness which I put upon Egypt, I will not bring upon you: for I am the Lord your healer."
15:27And the sons of Israel came into Elim, where there were twelve springs of waters, and seventy palm trees: and they encamped beside the waters.
