Exodus 15:5-11 God's Word Translation (GW)

5. The deep water covered them.They sank to the bottom like a rock.

6. Your right hand, O Lord, wins glory because it is strong.Your right hand, O Lord, smashes your enemies.

7. With your unlimited majesty, you destroyed those who attacked you.You sent out your burning anger.It burned them up like straw.

8. With a blast from your nostrils, the water piled up.The waves stood up like a dam.The deep water thickened in the middle of the sea.

9. “The enemy said, ‘I’ll pursue them!I’ll catch up with them!I’ll divide the loot!I’ll take all I want!I’ll use my sword!I’ll take all they have!’

10. Your breath blew the sea over them.They sank like lead in the raging water.

11. “Who is like you among the gods, O Lord?Who is like you?You are glorious because of your holinessand awe-inspiring because of your splendor.You perform miracles.
