Exodus 14:13-22

13But Moses said to the people, “1Do not fear! 2Stand by and see 3the salvation of the Lord which He will accomplish for you today; for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see them again forever. 144The Lord will fight for you while 5you keep silent.”

15Then the Lord said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to Me? Tell the sons of Israel to go forward. 16As for you, lift up 6your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, and the sons of Israel shall 7go through the midst of the sea on dry land. 17As for Me, behold, 8I will 9harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them; and I will be honored through Pharaoh and all his army, through his chariots and his horsemen. 1810Then the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, when I am honored through Pharaoh, through his chariots and his horsemen.”

1911The angel of God, who had been going before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them and stood behind them. 20So it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud 12along with the darkness, yet it gave light at night. Thus the one did not come near the other all night.

2113Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord 14swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night and turned the sea into 15dry land, so 16the waters were divided. 2217The sons of Israel 18went through the midst of the sea on the dry land, and 19the waters were like a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
