15aThen Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to Yahweh 1and said, “2,bI will sing to Yahweh, for He 3is highly exalted;cThe horse and its rider He has hurled into the sea.
2“1,aYah is my strength and song,And He has become my salvation;bThis is my God, and I will praise Him;cMy father’s God, and I will dextol Him.3“aYahweh is a warrior;bYahweh is His name.4“aPharaoh’s chariots and his army He has cast into the sea;And the choicest of his officers are sunk in the 1Red Sea.5“The deeps cover them;aThey went down into the depths like a stone.6“aYour right hand, O Yahweh, is majestic in power,bYour right hand, O Yahweh, shatters the enemy.7“And in the greatness of Your 1exaltation You apull down those who rise up against You;bYou send forth Your burning anger, and it cdevours them as chaff.8“aAnd at the blast of Your nostrils the waters were piled up,bThe flowing waters stood up like a heap;The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.9“aThe enemy said, ‘I will pursue, I will overtake, I will bdivide the spoil;My 1desire shall be fulfilled against them;I will draw out my sword, my hand will dispossess them.’10“aYou blew with Your wind, the sea covered them;bThey sank like lead in the 1mighty waters.11“aWho is like You among the gods, O Yahweh?Who is like You, bmajestic in holiness,cFearsome in praises, dworking wonders?12“aYou stretched out Your right hand,The earth swallowed them.13“In Your lovingkindness You have aguided the people whom You have bredeemed;In Your strength You have led them cto Your holy habitation.14“aThe peoples have heard, they tremble;Anguish has seized the inhabitants of Philistia.15“Then the achiefs of Edom were dismayed;bThe leaders of Moab, trembling seizes them;cAll the inhabitants of Canaan have melted away.16“aTerror and dread fall upon them;bBy the greatness of Your arm they are still as stone;Until Your people pass over, O Yahweh,Until the people pass over whom You chave purchased.17“aYou will bring them and bplant them in cthe mountain of Your inheritance,dThe place, O Yahweh, which You have made for You to inhabit,eThe sanctuary, O Lord, which Your hands have established.18“aYahweh shall reign forever and ever.”
