Exodus 14:17-30
17As for Me, beholdH2009, 1I will 2hardenH2388 the heartsH3820 of the EgyptiansH4714 so that they will goH935 in afterH310 them; and I will be honoredH3513 through PharaohH6547 and allH3605 his armyH2428, through his chariotsH7393 and his horsemenH6571. 183Then the EgyptiansH4714 will knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068, when I am honoredH3513 through PharaohH6547, through his chariotsH7393 and his horsemenH6571.”
194The angelH4397 of GodH430, who had been goingH1980 beforeH6440 the campH4264 of IsraelH3478, movedH5265 and wentH1980 behindH4480H310 them; and the pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 movedH5265 from beforeH4480H6440 them and stoodH5975 behindH4480H310 them. 20So it cameH935 betweenH996 the campH4264 of EgyptH4714 and the campH4264 of IsraelH3478; and there was the cloudH6051 5along with the darknessH2822, yet it gaveH215 lightH215 at nightH3915. Thus the oneH2088 did not comeH7126 nearH7126 the otherH2088 allH3605 nightH3915.
216Then MosesH4872 stretchedH5186 out his handH3027 overH5921 the seaH3220; and the LordH3068 7sweptH1980 the seaH3220 back by a strongH5794 eastH6921 windH7307 allH3605 nightH3915 and turnedH7760 the seaH3220 into 8dryH2724 landH2724, so 9the watersH4325 were dividedH1234. 2210The sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 11wentH935 throughH935 the midstH8432 of the seaH3220 on the dryH3004 landH3004, and 12the watersH4325 were like a wallH2346 to them on their rightH3225 handH3225 and on their leftH8040. 23Then 13the EgyptiansH4714 tookH7291 up the pursuitH7291, and allH3605 Pharaoh’sH6547 horsesH5483, his chariotsH7393 and his horsemenH6571 wentH935 in afterH310 them into the midstH8432 of the seaH3220. 24At the morningH1242 watchH821, 14the LordH3068 lookedH8259 downH8259 on the 15armyH4264 of the EgyptiansH4714 16through the pillarH5982 of fireH784 and cloudH6051 and broughtH2000 the 17armyH4264 of the EgyptiansH4714 into confusionH2000. 25He 18caused their chariotH4818 wheelsH212 to swerveH5493, and He made them driveH5090 with difficultyH3517; so the EgyptiansH4714 saidH559, “Let 19us fleeH5127 from IsraelH3478, 20for the LordH3068 is fightingH3898 for them against the EgyptiansH4714.”
26Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “21StretchH5186 out your handH3027 overH5921 the seaH3220 so that the watersH4325 may comeH7725 backH7725 overH5921 the EgyptiansH4714, overH5921 their chariotsH7393 and their horsemenH6571.” 27So MosesH4872 stretchedH5186 out his handH3027 overH5921 the seaH3220, and 22the seaH3220 returnedH7725 to its normalH386 stateH386 at daybreakH1242, while the EgyptiansH4714 were fleeingH5127 23rightH7122 into it; then the LordH3068 2425overthrewH5287 the EgyptiansH4714 in the midstH8432 of the seaH3220. 28The watersH4325 returnedH7725 and coveredH3680 the chariotsH7393 and the horsemenH6571, 26even Pharaoh’sH6547 entireH3605 armyH2428 that had goneH935 into the seaH3220 afterH310 them; 27not evenH5704 oneH259 of them remainedH7604. 29But the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 walkedH1980 on 28dryH3004 landH3004 through the midstH8432 of the seaH3220, and the watersH4325 were like a wallH2346 to them on their rightH3225 handH3225 and on their leftH8040.
3029Thus the LordH3068 savedH3467 IsraelH3478 that dayH3117 from the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4714, and IsraelH3478 30sawH7200 the EgyptiansH4714 deadH4191 on the seashoreH3220H8193.
