Exodus 14:13-22

13But Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid. Stand firm and see the Lord’s salvation that he will accomplish for you today; for the Egyptians you see today, you will never see again.

14The Lord will fight for you, and you must be quiet.”

15The Lord said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to me? Tell the Israelites to break camp.

16As for you, lift up your staff, stretch out your hand over the sea, and divide it so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground.

17As for me, I am going to harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them, and I will receive glory by means of Pharaoh, all his army, and his chariots and horsemen.

18The Egyptians will know that I am the Lord when I receive glory through Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.”

19Then the angel of God, who was going in front of the Israelite forces, moved and went behind them. The pillar of cloud moved from in front of them and stood behind them.

20It came between the Egyptian and Israelite forces. There was cloud and darkness, it lit up the night, and neither group came near the other all night long.

21Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea. The Lord drove the sea back with a powerful east wind all that night and turned the sea into dry land. So the waters were divided,

22and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with the waters like a wall to them on their right and their left.
