1 Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the LORD: "I will sing to the LORD, for he is highly exalted. Both horse and driver he has hurled into the sea.2 "The LORD is my strength and my defense "; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him.3 The LORD is a warrior; the LORD is his name.4 Pharaoh's chariots and his army he has hurled into the sea. The best of Pharaoh's officers are drowned in the Red Sea. [^2]5 The deep waters have covered them; they sank to the depths like a stone.6 Your right hand, LORD, was majestic in power. Your right hand, LORD, shattered the enemy.7 "In the greatness of your majesty you threw down those who opposed you. You unleashed your burning anger; it consumed them like stubble.8 By the blast of your nostrils the waters piled up. The surging waters stood up like a wall; the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea.9 The enemy boasted, 'I will pursue, I will overtake them. I will divide the spoils; I will gorge myself on them. I will draw my sword and my hand will destroy them.'10 But you blew with your breath, and the sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.11 Who among the gods is like you, LORD? Who is like you — majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?12 "You stretch out your right hand, and the earth swallows your enemies.13 In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling.14 The nations will hear and tremble; anguish will grip the people of Philistia.15 The chiefs of Edom will be terrified, the leaders of Moab will be seized with trembling, the people "of Canaan will melt away;16 terror and dread will fall on them. By the power of your arm they will be as still as a stone — until your people pass by, LORD, until the people you bought "pass by.17 You will bring them in and plant them on the mountain of your inheritance — the place, LORD, you made for your dwelling, the sanctuary, Lord, your hands established.18 "The LORD reigns for ever and ever."19 When Pharaoh's horses, chariots and horsemen "went into the sea, the LORD brought the waters of the sea back over them, but the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground.20 Then Miriam the prophet, Aaron's sister, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women followed her, with timbrels and dancing.21 Miriam sang to them: "Sing to the LORD, for he is highly exalted. Both horse and driver he has hurled into the sea."22 Then Moses led Israel from the Red Sea and they went into the Desert of Shur. For three days they traveled in the desert without finding water.23 When they came to Marah, they could not drink its water because it was bitter. (That is why the place is called Marah. ")24 So the people grumbled against Moses, saying, "What are we to drink?"25 Then Moses cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a piece of wood. He threw it into the water, and the water became fit to drink. There the LORD issued a ruling and instruction for them and put them to the test.26 He said, "If you listen carefully to the LORD your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD, who heals you."27 Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs and seventy palm trees, and they camped there near the water.
1 Tunc cecinit Moyses et filii Isral carmen hoc Domino, et dixerunt : [Cantemus Domino : gloriose enim magnificatus est,equum et ascensorem dejecit in mare.2 Fortitudo mea, et laus mea Dominus,et factus est mihi in salutem :iste Deus meus, et glorificabo eum :Deus patris mei, et exaltabo eum.3 Dominus quasi vir pugnator,Omnipotens nomen ejus,4 currus Pharaonis et exercitum ejus projecit in mare :electi principes ejus submersi sunt in mari Rubro.5 Abyssi operuerunt eos ;descenderunt in profundum quasi lapis.6 Dextera tua, Domine, magnificata est in fortitudine :dextera tua, Domine, percussit inimicum.7 Et in multitudine glori tu deposuisti adversarios tuos :misisti iram tuam, qu devoravit eos sicut stipulam.8 Et in spiritu furoris tui congregat sunt aqu :stetit unda fluens, congregata sunt abyssi in medio mari.9 Dixit inimicus : Persequar et comprehendam,dividam spolia, implebitur anima mea :evaginabo gladium meum, interficiet eos manus mea.10 Flavit spiritus tuus, et operuit eos mare :submersi sunt quasi plumbum in aquis vehementibus.11 Quis similis tui in fortibus, Domine ?quis similis tui, magnificus in sanctitate,terribilis atque laudabilis, faciens mirabilia ?12 Extendisti manum tuam, et devoravit eos terra.13 Dux fuisti in misericordia tua populo quem redemisti :et portasti eum in fortitudine tua, ad habitaculum sanctum tuum.14 Ascenderunt populi, et irati sunt :dolores obtinuerunt habitatores Philisthiim.15 Tunc conturbati sunt principes Edom,robustos Moab obtinuit tremor :obriguerunt omnes habitatores Chanaan.16 Irruat super eos formido et pavor, in magnitudine brachii tui :fiant immobiles quasi lapis,donec pertranseat populus tuus, Domine,donec pertranseat populus tuus iste, quem possedisti.17 Introduces eos, et plantabis in monte hreditatis tu,firmissimo habitaculo tuo quod operatus es, Domine :sanctuarium tuum, Domine, quod firmaverunt manus tu.18 Dominus regnabit in ternum et ultra.19 Ingressus est enim eques Pharaocum curribus et equitibus ejus in mare :et reduxit super eos Dominusaquas maris :filii autem Isral ambulaverunt per siccum in medio ejus.] 20 Sumpsit ergo Maria prophetissa, soror Aaron, tympanum in manu sua : egressque sunt omnes mulieres post eam cum tympanis et choris, 21 quibus prcinebat, dicens : [Cantemus Domino, gloriose enim magnificatus est :equum et ascensorem ejus dejecit in mare.]22 Tulit autem Moyses Isral de mari Rubro, et egressi sunt in desertum Sur : ambulaveruntque tribus diebus per solitudinem, et non inveniebant aquam. 23 Et venerunt in Mara, nec poterant bibere aquas de Mara, eo quod essent amar : unde et congruum loco nomen imposuit, vocans illum Mara, id est, amaritudinem. 24 Et murmuravit populus contra Moysen, dicens : Quid bibemus ? 25 At ille clamavit ad Dominum, qui ostendit ei lignum : quod cum misisset in aquas, in dulcedinem vers sunt : ibi constituit ei prcepta, atque judicia, et ibi tentavit eum, 26 dicens : Si audieris vocem Domini Dei tui, et quod rectum est coram eo feceris, et obedieris mandatis ejus, custodierisque omnia prcepta illius, cunctum languorem, quem posui in gypto, non inducam super te : ego enim Dominus sanator tuus. 27 Venerunt autem in Elim filii Isral, ubi erant duodecim fontes aquarum, et septuaginta palm : et castrametati sunt juxta aquas.
