"Your right hand, LORD, is awesome in power; it breaks the enemy in pieces.

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

Terror and dread fall upon them. They see your strength, O LORD, and stand helpless with fear until your people have marched past--- the people you set free from slavery.

Listen to us, O Shepherd of Israel; hear us, leader of your flock. Seated on your throne above the winged creatures,

Moses held out his hand over the sea, and the LORD drove the sea back with a strong east wind. It blew all night and turned the sea into dry land. The water was divided,

the water stopped flowing and piled up, far upstream at Adam, the city beside Zarethan. The flow downstream to the Dead Sea was completely cut off, and the people were able to cross over near Jericho.

Through the sea you made a path for your people and led them through on dry ground. Those who pursued them drowned in deep water, as a stone sinks in the raging sea.

He divided the sea and took them through it; he made the waters stand like walls.

What happened, Sea, to make you run away? And you, O Jordan, why did you stop flowing?

Tremble, earth, at the Lord's coming, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

He divided the Red Sea; his love is eternal;

but he drowned the king of Egypt and his army; his love is eternal.

Cypress trees will grow where now there are briers; myrtle trees will come up in place of thorns. This will be a sign that will last forever, a reminder of what I, the LORD, have done."

Lift up your walking stick and hold it out over the sea. The water will divide, and the Israelites will be able to walk through the sea on dry ground.

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.

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."
