1Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. 2The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him. 3The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name. 4Pharaoh’s chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea. 5The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone. 6Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy. 7And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble. 8And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea. 9The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.15.9 destroy: or, repossess 10Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters. 11Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?15.11 gods: or, mighty ones? 12Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them. 13Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation. 14The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina. 15Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away. 16Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased. 17Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established. 18The LORD shall reign for ever and ever. 19For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.
20¶ And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. 21And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
22So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
23¶ And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah.15.23 Marah: that is Bitterness 24And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? 25And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them, 26And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.
27¶ And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
摩西颂赞耶和华
1那时，摩西和以色列人便歌颂耶和华说：
“我要歌颂耶和华，
因祂大获全胜，
祂把战马骑兵都卷入海中。
2耶和华是我的力量，我的诗歌，
也成了我的拯救；
祂是我的上帝，我要赞美祂；
祂是我父亲的上帝，我要尊崇祂。
3耶和华是战士，
祂名叫耶和华。
4祂把法老的战车和全军都抛进海中，
法老的优秀将领都葬身于红海，
5大水淹没他们，
他们如同石块沉入深海。
6耶和华啊，你大能的右手显出荣耀；
耶和华啊，你的右手击碎仇敌。
7你大显威严，击倒那些起来对抗你的人；
你大发雷霆，他们便像枯草遇火，
一烧而尽。
8你的鼻孔一呼气，海水便堆聚起来，
洪涛便堆起水墙，海底深处也都凝固。
9敌人说，‘追啊，追上他们，
瓜分他们的财物，尽情地掳掠他们，
拔出刀来把他们斩尽杀绝。’
10你叫风一吹，海水就淹没他们，
他们好像铅块一样沉没在怒海中。
11耶和华啊，万神之中，谁能像你？
谁能像你——威严神圣，
可颂可畏，广行神迹？
12你伸出右手，大地便吞灭他们。
13你以不变的爱引领你所救赎的子民，
以大能带他们进入你的圣所。
14各邦各族听见这些事就发抖，
非利士人也痛苦不堪，
15以东的族长惶恐，
摩押的英雄颤栗，
迦南的居民都胆战心惊。
16惊骇恐惧笼罩着他们。
耶和华啊，
你臂膀的大能吓得他们僵立如石，
直到你的子民都安然走过，
直到你买赎的子民都安然走过。
17耶和华啊，
你要带领自己的子民到你的山上安居——
到你为自己所造的住处，
主啊，到你亲手建的圣所。
18“耶和华必做王，直到永永远远。”
19法老的战车和骑兵追到海中，耶和华使海水回流淹没他们，以色列人却在海中踏着干地走到对岸。 20亚伦的姐姐米利暗是个先知，她手拿小鼓，带领妇女击鼓跳舞， 21唱道：“要歌颂耶和华，因祂大获全胜，把马和骑兵都抛进海中。”
苦水
22摩西带领以色列人离开红海，来到书珥旷野，走了三天仍然找不到水喝。 23到了玛拉，那里的水却是苦的，不能喝。因此那地方叫玛拉15:23 “玛拉”意思是“苦”。。 24百姓就埋怨摩西说：“我们喝什么呢？” 25摩西向耶和华呼求，耶和华就指示他把一棵树丢在水中，使水变得甘甜。耶和华又在玛拉给百姓订下一些律例和法令，并在那里试验他们， 26说：“你们若留心听你们上帝耶和华的话，做我视为正的事，遵守我所订下的律例，我就不把降在埃及的疾病加在你们身上，因为我耶和华是医治你们的上帝。”
27到了以琳，那里有十二股水泉和七十棵棕树，他们就在水边安营。
