Context of Exodus 15:6
4Pharaoh’s chariots and his army He has thrown into the sea; His chosen captains are drowned in the Red Sea. 5The deep [water] covers them; [Clad in armor] they sank into the depths like a stone. Your right hand, O Lord, is glorious in power; Your right hand, O Lord, shatters the enemy. 7In the greatness of Your majesty You overthrow and annihilate those [adversaries] who rise [in rebellion] against You; You send out Your fury, and it consumes them like chaff. 8With the blast of Your nostrils the waters piled up, The flowing waters stood up like a mound; The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.
