1 And the LORD * h3068 spake * h1696 h8762 unto Moses * h4872, saying * h559 h8800,
2 Speak * h1696 h8761 unto the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, that they turn * h7725 h8799 and encamp * h2583 h8799 before * h6440 Pihahiroth * h6367, between Migdol * h4024 and the sea * h3220, over against * h6440 Baalzephon * h1189: before * h5226 it shall ye encamp * h2583 h8799 by the sea * h3220.
3 For Pharaoh * h6547 will say * h559 h8804 of the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, They are entangled * h943 h8737 in the land * h776, the wilderness * h4057 hath shut them in * h5462 h8804.
4 And I will harden * h2388 h8765 Pharaoh's * h6547 heart * h3820, that he shall follow * h7291 h8804 after * h310 them; and I will be honoured * h3513 h8735 upon Pharaoh * h6547, and upon all his host * h2428; that the Egyptians * h4714 may know * h3045 h8804 that I am the LORD * h3068. And they did * h6213 h8799 so.
5 And it was told * h5046 h8714 the king * h4428 of Egypt * h4714 that the people * h5971 fled * h1272 h8804: and the heart * h3824 of Pharaoh * h6547 and of his servants * h5650 was turned * h2015 h8735 against the people * h5971, and they said * h559 h8799, Why have we done * h6213 h8804 this, that we have let Israel * h3478 go * h7971 h8765 from serving * h5647 h8800 us?
6 And he made ready * h631 h8799 his chariot * h7393, and took * h3947 h8804 his people * h5971 with him:
7 And he took * h3947 h8799 six * h8337 hundred * h3967 chosen * h977 h8803 chariots * h7393, and all the chariots * h7393 of Egypt * h4714, and captains * h7991 over every one of them.
8 And the LORD * h3068 hardened * h2388 h8762 the heart * h3820 of Pharaoh * h6547 king * h4428 of Egypt * h4714, and he pursued * h7291 h8799 after * h310 the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478: and the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 went out * h3318 h8802 with an high * h7311 h8802 hand * h3027.
9 But the Egyptians * h4714 pursued * h7291 h8799 after * h310 them, all the horses * h5483 and chariots * h7393 of Pharaoh * h6547, and his horsemen * h6571, and his army * h2428, and overtook * h5381 h8686 them encamping * h2583 h8802 by the sea * h3220, beside Pihahiroth * h6367, before * h6440 Baalzephon * h1189.
10 And when Pharaoh * h6547 drew nigh * h7126 h8689, the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 lifted up * h5375 h8799 their eyes * h5869, and, behold, the Egyptians * h4714 marched * h5265 h8802 after * h310 them; and they were sore * h3966 afraid * h3372 h8799: and the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 cried out * h6817 h8799 unto the LORD * h3068.
11 And they said * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, Because there were no graves * h6913 in Egypt * h4714, hast thou taken us away * h3947 h8804 to die * h4191 h8800 in the wilderness * h4057? wherefore * h2063 hast thou dealt * h6213 h8804 thus with us, to carry us forth * h3318 h8687 out of Egypt * h4714?
12 Is not this the word * h1697 that we did tell * h1696 h8765 thee in Egypt * h4714, saying * h559 h8800, Let us alone * h2308 h8798, that we may serve * h5647 h8799 the Egyptians * h4714? For it had been better * h2896 for us to serve * h5647 h8800 the Egyptians * h4714, than that we should die * h4191 h8800 in the wilderness * h4057.
13 And Moses * h4872 said * h559 h8799 unto the people * h5971, Fear * h3372 h8799 ye not, stand still * h3320 h8690, and see * h7200 h8798 the salvation * h3444 of the LORD * h3068, which he will shew * h6213 h8799 to you to day * h3117: for the Egyptians * h4714 whom ye have seen * h7200 h8804 to day * h3117, ye shall see * h7200 h8800 them again * h3254 h8686 no more for * h5704 ever * h5769. for the...: or, for whereas ye have seen the Egyptians to day
14 The LORD * h3068 shall fight * h3898 h8735 for you, and ye shall hold your peace * h2790 h8686.
15 And the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, Wherefore criest * h6817 h8799 thou unto me? speak * h1696 h8761 unto the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478, that they go forward * h5265 h8799:
16 But lift thou up * h7311 h8685 thy rod * h4294, and stretch out * h5186 h8798 thine hand * h3027 over the sea * h3220, and divide * h1234 h8798 it: and the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 shall go * h935 h8799 on dry * h3004 ground through the midst * h8432 of the sea * h3220.
17 And I, behold, I will harden * h2388 h8764 the hearts * h3820 of the Egyptians * h4714, and they shall follow * h935 h8799 them * h310: and I will get me honour * h3513 h8735 upon Pharaoh * h6547, and upon all his host * h2428, upon his chariots * h7393, and upon his horsemen * h6571.
18 And the Egyptians * h4714 shall know * h3045 h8804 that I am the LORD * h3068, when I have gotten me honour * h3513 h8736 upon Pharaoh * h6547, upon his chariots * h7393, and upon his horsemen * h6571.
19 And the angel * h4397 of God * h430, which went * h1980 h8802 before * h6440 the camp * h4264 of Israel * h3478, removed * h5265 h8799 and went * h3212 h8799 behind * h310 them; and the pillar * h5982 of the cloud * h6051 went * h5265 h8799 from before their face * h6440, and stood * h5975 h8799 behind * h310 them:
20 And it came * h935 h8799 between the camp * h4264 of the Egyptians * h4714 and the camp * h4264 of Israel * h3478; and it was a cloud * h6051 and darkness * h2822 to them , but it gave light * h215 h8686 by night * h3915 to these : so that the one came not near * h7126 h8804 the other * h2088 all the night * h3915.
21 And Moses * h4872 stretched out * h5186 h8799 his hand * h3027 over the sea * h3220; and the LORD * h3068 caused the sea * h3220 to go * h3212 h8686 back by a strong * h5794 east * h6921 wind * h7307 all that night * h3915, and made * h7760 h8799 the sea * h3220 dry * h2724 land , and the waters * h4325 were divided * h1234 h8735.
22 And the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 went * h935 h8799 into the midst * h8432 of the sea * h3220 upon the dry * h3004 ground : and the waters * h4325 were a wall * h2346 unto them on their right hand * h3225, and on their left * h8040.
23 And the Egyptians * h4714 pursued * h7291 h8799, and went in * h935 h8799 after * h310 them to the midst * h8432 of the sea * h3220, even all Pharaoh's * h6547 horses * h5483, his chariots * h7393, and his horsemen * h6571.
24 And it came to pass, that in the morning * h1242 watch * h821 the LORD * h3068 looked * h8259 h8686 unto the host * h4264 of the Egyptians * h4714 through the pillar * h5982 of fire * h784 and of the cloud * h6051, and troubled * h2000 h8799 the host * h4264 of the Egyptians * h4714,
25 And took off * h5493 h8686 their chariot * h4818 wheels * h212, that they drave * h5090 h8762 them heavily * h3517: so that the Egyptians * h4714 said * h559 h8799, Let us flee * h5127 h8799 from the face * h6440 of Israel * h3478; for the LORD * h3068 fighteth * h3898 h8737 for them against the Egyptians * h4714. that they...: or, and made them to go heavily
26 And the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto Moses * h4872, Stretch out * h5186 h8798 thine hand * h3027 over the sea * h3220, that the waters * h4325 may come again * h7725 h8799 upon the Egyptians * h4714, upon their chariots * h7393, and upon their horsemen * h6571.
27 And Moses * h4872 stretched forth * h5186 h8799 his hand * h3027 over the sea * h3220, and the sea * h3220 returned * h7725 h8799 to his strength * h386 when the morning * h1242 appeared * h6437 h8800; and the Egyptians * h4714 fled * h5127 h8801 against * h7125 h8800 it; and the LORD * h3068 overthrew * h5287 h8762 the Egyptians * h4714 in the midst * h8432 of the sea * h3220. overthrew: Heb. shook off
28 And the waters * h4325 returned * h7725 h8799, and covered * h3680 h8762 the chariots * h7393, and the horsemen * h6571, and all the host * h2428 of Pharaoh * h6547 that came * h935 h8802 into the sea * h3220 after * h310 them; there remained * h7604 h8738 not so much as * h5704 one * h259 of them.
29 But the children * h1121 of Israel * h3478 walked * h1980 h8804 upon dry * h3004 land in the midst * h8432 of the sea * h3220; and the waters * h4325 were a wall * h2346 unto them on their right hand * h3225, and on their left * h8040.
30 Thus the LORD * h3068 saved * h3467 h8686 Israel * h3478 that day * h3117 out of the hand * h3027 of the Egyptians * h4714; and Israel * h3478 saw * h7200 h8799 the Egyptians * h4714 dead * h4191 h8801 upon the sea * h3220 shore * h8193.
31 And Israel * h3478 saw * h7200 h8799 that great * h1419 work * h3027 which the LORD * h3068 did * h6213 h8804 upon the Egyptians * h4714: and the people * h5971 feared * h3372 h8799 the LORD * h3068, and believed * h539 h8686 the LORD * h3068, and his servant * h5650 Moses * h4872. work: Heb. hand
