Exodus 15:2-13

2The LORD is my strength and my song, and He has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise Him, my father’s God, and I will exalt Him.

3The LORD is a warrior,the LORD is His name.4Pharaoh’s chariots and armyHe has cast into the sea;the finest of his officersare drowned in the Red Sea.15The depths have covered them;they sank there like a stone.

6Your right hand, O LORD,is majestic in power;Your right hand, O LORD,has shattered the enemy.7You overthrew Your adversariesby Your great majesty.You unleashed Your burning wrath;it consumed them like stubble.8At the blast of Your nostrilsthe waters piled up;like a wall the currents stood firm;the depths congealed in the heart of the sea.

9The enemy declared,‘I will pursue, I will overtake.I will divide the spoils;I will gorge myself on them.I will draw my sword;my hand will destroy them.’10But You blew with Your breath,and the sea covered them.They sank like leadin the mighty waters.

11Who among the gods is like You, O LORD?Who is like You—majestic in holiness,revered with praises,performing wonders?12You stretched out Your right hand,and the earth swallowed them up.13With loving devotion2 You will leadthe people You have redeemed;with Your strength You will guide themto Your holy dwelling.
