Shemot 15:1-9 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. Then sang Moshe and the Bnei Yisroel this shirah (song) to Hashem, and spoke, saying, I will sing unto Hashem, for He hath triumphed gloriously: the sus and its rider hath He cast into the yam.

2. Hashem is my oz and zimrah (song of praise), and He is become to me Yeshuah (salvation); He is Eli (my G-d), and I will praise Him; Elohei Avi, and I will exalt Him.

3. Hashem is an Ish Milchamah; Hashem shmo.

4. Markevot Pharaoh and his army hath He cast into the yam; his select commanders also are drowned in Yam Suf.

5. The tehomot (depths) have covered them; they sank into the bottom like an even (stone).

6. Thy right hand, Hashem, is become glorious in ko'ach; Thy right hand, Hashem, hath dashed into pieces the oyev.

7. And in the greatness of Thine majesty Thou hast overthrown them that rose up against Thee; Thou sentest forth Thy charon (wrath), which consumed them as stubble.

8. And with the blast of Thy nostrils the mayim were gathered together, the floods stood upright like a stack, and the tehomot were congealed in the lev yam (heart of the sea).

9. The oyev said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will share the plunder; my battlelust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my cherev, my yad shall take possession of them.
