Exodus 14:1-14

1And the LORDH3068 spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559,

2SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, that they turnH7725 backH7725 and encampH2583 beforeH6440 Pi-hahirothH6367, betweenH996 MigdolH4024 and the seaH3220, beforeH6440 Baal-zephonH1189: over againstH5921 it shall ye encampH2583 by the seaH3220.

3And PharaohH6547 will sayH559 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, They are entangled in the landH776, the wildernessH4057 hath shutH5462 them in.

4And I will hardenH2388 Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820, and he shall followH310 afterH310 them; and I will get meH310 honour upon PharaohH6547, and upon allH3605 his host; and the EgyptiansH4713 shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068. And they didH6213 soH3651.

5And it was toldH5046 the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 that the peopleH5971 were fledH1272: and the heartH3824 of PharaohH6547 and of his servantsH5650 was changedH2015 towards the peopleH5971, and they saidH559, WhatH4100 is this weH3588 have doneH6213, that weH3588 have letH7971 IsraelH3478 goH7971 from servingH5647 usH413?

6And he madeH631 readyH631 his chariotH7393, and tookH3947 his peopleH5971 with him:

7and he tookH3947 sixH8337 hundredH3967 chosenH3947 chariotsH7393, and allH3605 the chariotsH7393 of EgyptH4714, and captains over allH3605 of them.

8And the LORDH3068 hardenedH2388 the heartH3820 of PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and he pursuedH7291 afterH310 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 wentH3318 outH3318 with an highH7311 handH3027.

9And the EgyptiansH4713 pursuedH7291 afterH310 them, allH3605 the horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 of PharaohH6547, and his horsemenH6571, and his armyH2428, and overtookH5381 them encamping by the seaH3220, besideH5921 Pi-hahirothH6367, beforeH6440 Baal-zephonH1189.

10And when PharaohH6547 drewH7126 nigh, the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 liftedH5375 upH5375 their eyesH5869, and, beholdH2009, the EgyptiansH4713 marched afterH310 them; and they were sore afraidH3372: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH6817 outH5265 unto the LORDH3068.

11And they saidH559 unto MosesH4872, BecauseH413 there were noH369 gravesH6913 in EgyptH4714, hast thou takenH3947 usH413 awayH3947 to dieH4191 in the wildernessH4057? wherefore hast thou dealt thusH4191 with usH413, to bringH3318 usH413 forthH3318 outH3318 of EgyptH4714?

12Is notH3808 this the wordH1697 that weH3588 spake unto thee in EgyptH4714, sayingH559, LetH3808 usH413 aloneH2308, that weH3588 may serveH5647 the EgyptiansH4714? For it were betterH2896 for usH413 to serveH5647 the EgyptiansH4714, thanH4480 that weH3588 should dieH4191 in the wildernessH4057.

13And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, FearH3372 ye notH3808, standH3320 stillH5750, and seeH7200 the salvationH3444 of the LORDH3068, whichH834 he will work for youH834 todayH3117: for the EgyptiansH4713 whomH834 ye have seenH7200 todayH3117, ye shall seeH7200 them againH5750 noH3808 moreH5750 for everH5769.

14The LORDH3068 shall fightH3898 for youH859, and ye shall hold your peace.
