1. Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to Yahweh, and they said, “Let me sing to Yahweh because he is highly exalted; the horse and its rider he hurled into the sea.
2. Yah is my strength and song, and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him—the God of my father—and I will exalt him.
3. Yahweh is a man of war; Yahweh is his name.
4. The chariots of Pharaoh and his army he cast into the sea, and his choice adjutants were sunk in the Red Sea.
5. The deep waters covered them; they went down into the depths like a stone.
6. Yahweh, your right hand is glorious in power; Yahweh, your right hand destroyed the enemy.
7. And in the greatness of your majesty you overthrew those standing up to you; you released your fierce anger, and it consumed them like stubble.
8. And by the breath of your nostrils waters were piled up; waves stood like a heap; deep waters in the middle of the sea congealed.
9. The enemy said, ‘I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide plunder, my desire will be full of them, I will draw my sword, my hand will destroy them.’
10. You blew with your breath; the sea covered them; they dropped like lead in the mighty waters.
11. Who is like you among the gods, Yahweh? Who is like you—glorious in holiness, awesome in praiseworthy actions, doing wonders?
12. You stretched out your right hand; the earth swallowed them.
13. In your loyal love you led the people whom you redeemed; in your strength you guided them to the abode of your holiness.
14. Peoples heard; they trembled; anguish seized the inhabitants of Philistia.
15. Then the chiefs of Edom were horrified; great distress seized the leaders of Moab; all of the inhabitants of Canaan melted away.
16. Terror and dread fell on them; at the greatness of your arm they became silent like the stone, until your people passed by, Yahweh, until the people whom you bought passed by.
