Exodus 15:1-14 Amplified Bible (AMP)

1. THEN MOSES and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord, saying, I will sing to the Lord, for He has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider or its chariot has He thrown into the sea.

2. The Lord is my Strength and my Song, and He has become my Salvation; this is my God, and I will praise Him, my father's God, and I will exalt Him.

3. The Lord is a Man of War; the Lord is His name.

4. Pharaoh's chariots and his host has He cast into the sea; his chosen captains also are sunk in the Red Sea.

5. The floods cover them; they sank in the depths [clad in mail] like a stone.

6. Your right hand, O Lord, is glorious in power; Your right hand, O Lord, shatters the enemy.

7. In the greatness of Your majesty You overthrow those rising against You. You send forth Your fury; it consumes them like stubble.

8. With the blast of Your nostrils the waters piled up, the floods stood fixed in a heap, the deeps congealed in the heart of the sea.

9. The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my desire shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

10. You [Lord] blew with Your wind, the sea covered them; [clad in mail] they sank as lead in the mighty waters.

11. Who is like You, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like You, glorious in holiness, awesome in splendor, doing wonders?

12. You stretched out Your right hand, the earth's [sea] swallowed them.

13. You in Your mercy and loving-kindness have led forth the people whom You have redeemed; You have guided them in Your strength to Your holy habitation.

14. The peoples have heard of it; they tremble; pangs have taken hold on the inhabitants of Philistia.
