Exodus 14:22-27 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

22. The Israelites went through the sea on dry land. The water was like a wall on their right and on their left.

23. Then all of Pharaoh’s chariots and horse soldiers followed them into the sea.

24. Early that morning the Lord looked down from the tall cloud and column of fire at the Egyptian army. Then he made them panic.

25. The wheels of the chariots became stuck. It was very hard to control the chariots. The Egyptians shouted, “Let’s get out of here! The Lord is fighting against us. He is fighting for the Israelites.”

26. Then the Lord told Moses, “Raise your hand over the sea to make the water fall and cover the Egyptian chariots and horse soldiers.”

27. So just before daylight, Moses raised his hand over the sea. And the water rushed back to its proper level. The Egyptians were running as fast as they could from the water, but the Lord swept them away with the sea.
