Good News Translation GNT
New International Version NIV
16 Long ago the Lord made a road through the sea, a path through the swirling waters.
16
This is what the LORD says— he who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters,
17 He led a mighty army to destruction, an army of chariots and horses. Down they fell, never to rise, snuffed out like the flame of a lamp!
17
who drew out the chariots and horses, the army and reinforcements together, and they lay there, never to rise again, extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:
18 But the Lord says, "Do not cling to events of the past or dwell on what happened long ago.
18
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
19 Watch for the new thing I am going to do. It is happening already - you can see it now! I will make a road through the wilderness and give you streams of water there.
19
See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.
