7. In your great victoryyou destroyed those who were against you.Your anger destroyed them,like fire burning straw.
8. Just a blast of your breath,and the waters piled up.The moving water stood like a wall;the deep waters became solid in the middle of the sea.
9. “The enemy bragged,‘I’ll chase them and catch them.I’ll take all their riches;I’ll take all I want.I’ll pull out my sword,and my hand will destroy them.’
10. But you blew on them with your breathand covered them with the sea.They sank like leadin the raging water.
11. “Are there any gods like you, Lord?There are no gods like you.You are wonderfully holy,amazingly powerful,a worker of miracles.
12. You reached out with your right hand,and the earth swallowed our enemies.
13. You keep your loving promiseand lead the people you have saved.With your strength you will guide themto your holy place.
14. “The other nations will hear this and tremble with fear;terror will take hold of the Philistines.
15. The leaders of the tribes of Edom will be very frightened;the powerful men of Moab will shake with fear;the people of Canaan will lose all their courage.
16. Terror and horror will fall on them.When they see your strength,they will be as still as a rock.They will be still until your people pass by, Lord.They will be still until the people you have taken as your own pass by.
17. You will lead your people and place themon your very own mountain,the place that you, Lord, made for yourself to live,the temple, Lord, that your hands have made.
18. The Lord will be king forever!”
19. The horses, chariot drivers, and chariots of the king of Egypt went into the sea, and the Lord covered them with water from the sea. But the Israelites walked through the sea on dry land.
