Exodus 15:12-22

12 You stretched out your right hand, and the earth swallowed our enemies.
13 Faithful to your promise, you led the people you had rescued; by your strength you guided them to your sacred land.
14 The nations have heard, and they tremble with fear; the Philistines are seized with terror.
15 The leaders of Edom are terrified; Moab's mighty men are trembling; the people of Canaan lose their courage.
16 Terror and dread fall upon them. They see your strength, O Lord, and stand helpless with fear until your people have marched past - the people you set free from slavery.
17 You bring them in and plant them on your mountain, the place that you, Lord, have chosen for your home, the Temple that you yourself have built.
18 You, Lord, will be king forever and ever."
19 The Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground. But when the Egyptian chariots with their horses and drivers went into the sea, the Lord brought the water back, and it covered them.
20 The prophet Miriam, Aaron's sister, took her tambourine, and all the women followed her, playing tambourines and dancing.
21 Miriam sang for them: "Sing to the Lord, because he has won a glorious victory; he has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea."
22 Then Moses led the people of Israel away from the Red Sea into the desert of Shur. For three days they walked through the desert, but found no water.
