Judith 5:13

13 God dried up the Red Sea before the Israelites,

Judith 5:13 In-Context

11 Then the king of Egypt turned against them and took advantage of them, enslaving them and forcing them to make bricks.

12 They cried out to their God, and he sent incurable plagues upon the entire land of Egypt, so that the Egyptians drove them out of their sight.

13 God dried up the Red Sea before the Israelites,

14 and led them by way of Sinai and Kadesh-barnea. They drove out all of the inhabitants of the desert.

15 They lived in the land of the Amorites and destroyed all the Heshbonites with their strength. Once they had crossed the Jordan, they took possession of all the highlands.
