Exodus 15:18 in other versions
Context of Exodus 15:18
16They will all be afraid. Because of your great power they will want to run away. But they cannot move! They will remain still, like stones, until your people go on past them. They will stand and watch as the people you have saved, Lord, pass by. 17You will bring your people in safely. You will bring them to live on your own mountain. Lord, that is the place that you have prepared for your home. It is the holy place that you have built, Lord. The Lord will rule as king for ever! 19Pharaoh's horses, his chariots and his soldiers went into the sea. Then the Lord made the waters of the sea come back over them. But the Israelites walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground.’ 20Then Miriam, Aaron's sister, who was a prophet, took a tambourine in her hand. All the other women followed her, with tambourines in their hands. They danced while Miriam sang to them.

In every age this song gave the tone to the poetry of Israel…Read the comment

Then sang Moses and the children of Israel--The scene of this thanksgiving song is supposed to have been at the landing place on the eastern shore of the Red Sea, at Ayoun Musa, "the fountains of Moses."
