Exodus 15 – New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

The Song of Moses and Israel

1 Then ^H227 Moses ^H4872 and the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 sang ^H7891 this ^H2088 song ^H7892 to the LORD ^H3068, [fn]saying ^H559:

“[fn]I will sing ^H7891 to the LORD ^H3068, for He is highly ^H1342 exalted ^H1342;

The horse ^H5483 and its rider ^H7392 He has hurled ^H7411 into the sea ^H3220.

2 “[fn]The LORD ^H3050 is my strength ^H5797 and song ^H2172,

And He has become ^H1961 my salvation ^H3444;

This ^H2088 is my God ^H410, and I will praise ^H5115 Him;

My father’s ^H1 God ^H430, and I will exalt ^H7311 Him.

3 “The LORD ^H3068 is a warrior ^H4421;

[fn]The LORD ^H3068 is His name ^H8034.

4 “Pharaoh’s ^H6547 chariots ^H4818 and his army ^H2428 He has thrown ^H3384 into the sea ^H3220;

And the choicest ^H4005 of his officers ^H7991 are [fn]drowned ^H2883 in the [fn]Red ^H5488 Sea ^H3220.

5 “The waters ^H8415 cover ^H3680 them;

They went ^H3381 down ^H3381 into the depths ^H4688 like ^H3644 a stone ^H68.

6 “Your right ^H3225 hand ^H3225, LORD ^H3068, is majestic ^H142 in power ^H3581;

Your right ^H3225 hand ^H3225, LORD ^H3068, destroys ^H7492 the enemy ^H340.

7 “And in the greatness ^H7230 of Your [fn]excellence ^H1347 You overthrow ^H2040 those who rise ^H6965 up ^H6965 against You;

You send ^H7971 out ^H7971 Your burning ^H2740 anger ^H2740, and it consumes ^H398 them like chaff ^H7179.

8 “At the blast ^H7307 of Your nostrils ^H639 the waters ^H4325 were piled ^H6192 up,

The flowing ^H5140 waters ^H4325 stood ^H5324 up ^H5324 like ^H3644 a heap ^H5067;

The depths ^H8415 were congealed ^H7087 in the heart ^H3820 of the sea ^H3220.

9 “The enemy ^H340 said ^H559, ‘I will pursue ^H7291, I will overtake ^H5381, I will divide ^H2505 the spoils ^H7998;

[fn]I shall [fn]be satisfied ^H4390 against them;

I will draw ^H7324 my sword ^H2719, my hand ^H3027 will [fn]destroy ^H3423 them.’

10 “You blew ^H5398 with Your wind ^H7307, the sea ^H3220 covered ^H3680 them;

They sank ^H6749 like lead ^H5777 in the mighty ^H117 waters ^H4325.

11 “Who ^H4310 is like ^H3644 You among the gods ^H410, LORD ^H3068?

Who ^H4310 is like ^H3644 You, majestic ^H142 in holiness ^H6944,

Awesome ^H3372 in praises ^H8416, working ^H6213 wonders ^H6382?

12 “You reached ^H5186 out ^H5186 with Your right ^H3225 hand ^H3225,

The earth ^H776 swallowed ^H1104 them.

13 “In Your [fn]faithfulness ^H2617 You have led ^H5148 the people ^H5971 whom ^H2098 You have redeemed ^H1350;

In Your strength ^H5797 You have guided ^H5095 them to Your holy ^H6944 habitation ^H5116.

14 “The peoples ^H5971 have heard ^H8085, they tremble ^H7264;

Anguish ^H2427 has gripped ^H270 the inhabitants ^H3427 of Philistia ^H6429.

15 “Then ^H227 the chiefs ^H441 of Edom ^H123 were terrified ^H926;

The leaders ^H352 of Moab ^H4124, trembling ^H7461 grips ^H270 them;

All ^H3605 the inhabitants ^H3427 of Canaan ^H3667 have despaired ^H4127.

16 “Terror ^H367 and dread ^H6343 fall ^H5307 upon them;

By the greatness ^H1419 of Your arm ^H2220 they are ^H1826 motionless ^H1826 as stone ^H68,

Until ^H5704 Your people ^H5971 pass ^H5674 over ^H5674, LORD ^H3068,

Until ^H5704 the people ^H5971 pass ^H5674 over ^H5674 whom ^H2098 You have purchased ^H7069.

17 “You will bring ^H935 them and plant ^H5193 them in the mountain ^H2022 of Your inheritance ^H5159,

The place ^H4349, LORD ^H3068, which You have made ^H6466 as Your dwelling ^H3427,

The sanctuary ^H4720, Lord ^H136, which Your hands ^H3027 have established ^H3559.

18 “The LORD ^H3068 shall reign ^H4427 forever ^H5769 and ever ^H5703.”

19 For the horses ^H5483 of Pharaoh ^H6547 with his chariots ^H7393 and his horsemen ^H6571 went ^H935 into the sea ^H3220, and the LORD ^H3068 brought ^H7725 back ^H7725 the waters ^H4325 of the sea ^H3220 on them, but the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 walked ^H1980 on dry ^H3004 land ^H3004 through the midst ^H8432 of the sea ^H3220.

20 Miriam ^H4813 the prophetess ^H5031, Aaron’s ^H175 sister ^H269, took ^H3947 the tambourine ^H8596 in her hand ^H3027, and all ^H3605 the women ^H802 went ^H3318 out ^H3318 after ^H310 her with tambourines ^H8596 and with [fn]dancing ^H4246.

21 And Miriam ^H4813 answered ^H6030 them,

“Sing ^H7891 to the LORD ^H3068, for He [fn]is highly ^H1342 exalted ^H1342;

The horse ^H5483 and his rider ^H7392 He has hurled ^H7411 into the sea ^H3220.”

The LORD Provides Water

22 Then Moses ^H4872 [fn]led ^H5265 Israel ^H3478 from the [fn]Red ^H5488 Sea ^H3220, and they went ^H3318 out ^H3318 into the wilderness ^H4057 of Shur ^H7793; and they went ^H1980 three ^H7969 days ^H3117 in the wilderness ^H4057 and found ^H4672 no ^H3808 water ^H4325.

23 When they came ^H935 to Marah ^H4785, they could ^H3201 not drink ^H8354 the waters ^H4325 [fn]of Marah ^H4785, because ^H3588 they were [fn]bitter ^H4751; for that ^H3651 reason ^H3651 it was named ^H7121 H8034 [fn]Marah ^H4785. 24 So the people ^H5971 grumbled ^H3885 at Moses ^H4872, saying ^H559, “What ^H4100 are we to drink ^H8354?” 25 Then he cried ^H6817 out ^H6817 to the LORD ^H3068, and the LORD ^H3068 showed ^H3384 him a tree ^H6086; and he threw ^H7993 it into the waters ^H4325, and the waters ^H4325 became ^H4985 sweet ^H4985.

There ^H8033 He made ^H7760 for them a statute ^H2706 and regulation ^H4941, and there ^H8033 He tested ^H5254 them. 26 And He said ^H559, “If ^H518 you will listen ^H8085 carefully ^H8085 to the voice ^H6963 of the LORD ^H3068 your God ^H430, and do ^H6213 what is right ^H3477 in His sight ^H5869, and listen ^H238 to His commandments ^H4687, and keep ^H8104 all ^H3605 His statutes ^H2706, I will put ^H7760 none ^H3605 H3808 of the diseases ^H4245 on you which ^H834 I have put ^H7760 on the Egyptians ^H4714; for I, the LORD ^H3068, am your healer ^H7495.”

27 Then they came ^H935 to Elim ^H362 where ^H8033 there were twelve ^H8147 H6240 springs ^H5869 of water ^H4325 and seventy ^H7657 date ^H8558 palms ^H8558, and they camped ^H2583 there ^H8033 beside ^H5921 the waters ^H4325.
