I will make the Egyptians so stubborn that they will go in after them, and I will gain honor by my victory over the king, his army, his chariots, and his drivers.

May they be defeated and terrified forever; may they die in complete disgrace.

May they know that you alone are the LORD, supreme ruler over all the earth.

Everything the LORD has made has its destiny; and the destiny of the wicked is destruction.

For the scripture says to the king of Egypt, "I made you king in order to use you to show my power and to spread my fame over the whole world."

And the same is true of what God has done. He wanted to show his anger and to make his power known. But he was very patient in enduring those who were the objects of his anger, who were doomed to destruction.

And another scripture says, "This is the stone that will make people stumble, the rock that will make them fall." They stumbled because they did not believe in the word; such was God's will for them.

God will bless you for this, if you endure the pain of undeserved suffering because you are conscious of his will.

For some godless people have slipped in unnoticed among us, persons who distort the message about the grace of our God in order to excuse their immoral ways, and who reject Jesus Christ, our only Master and Lord. Long ago the Scriptures predicted the condemnation they have received.

I will make him stubborn, and he will pursue you, and my victory over the king and his army will bring me honor. Then the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD." The Israelites did as they were told.

" LORD, who among the gods is like you? Who is like you, wonderful in holiness? Who can work miracles and mighty acts like yours?

Faithful to your promise, you led the people you had rescued; by your strength you guided them to your sacred land.

The leaders of Edom are terrified; Moab's mighty men are trembling; the people of Canaan lose their courage.

Now I know that the LORD is greater than all the gods, because he did this when the Egyptians treated the Israelites with such contempt."

We have heard how the LORD dried up the Red Sea in front of you when you were leaving Egypt. We have also heard how you killed Sihon and Og, the two Amorite kings east of the Jordan.

We were afraid as soon as we heard about it; we have all lost our courage because of you. The LORD your God is God in heaven above and here on earth.

Who can save us from those powerful gods? They are the gods who slaughtered the Egyptians in the desert!

He killed the first-born sons of the Egyptians; his love is eternal.

with his strong hand, his powerful arm; his love is eternal.

he led his people through it; his love is eternal;

Proclaim his glory to the nations, his mighty deeds to all peoples.

They will all be afraid; they will think about what God has done and tell about his deeds.

May they be defeated and terrified forever; may they die in complete disgrace.

May they know that you alone are the LORD, supreme ruler over all the earth.

Where is the LORD, who by his power did great things through Moses, dividing the waters of the sea and leading his people through the deep water, to win everlasting fame for himself ?" Led by the LORD, they were as sure-footed as wild horses, and never stumbled.

As cattle are led into a fertile valley, so the LORD gave his people rest. He led his people and brought honor to his name.

People from one end of the world to the other honor me. Everywhere they burn incense to me and offer acceptable sacrifices. All of them honor me!

A curse on the cheater who sacrifices a worthless animal to me, when he has in his flock a good animal that he promised to give me! For I am a great king, and people of all nations fear me."

For the scripture says to the king of Egypt, "I made you king in order to use you to show my power and to spread my fame over the whole world."
