Context of Exodus 15:6
4He threw Pharaoh's chariots and his army into the sea. Pharaoh's best officers drowned in the Red Sea. 5The deep waters have covered them. They fell to the floor of the sea, like a stone. Your right hand, Lord, was great and powerful. Your right hand, Lord, destroyed the enemy. 7With your powerful authority, you killed your enemies. You were very angry with them. You killed them, like a fire burns dry grass. 8You blew on the water and it became like a wall. The deep waters stood up in a big heap.
