Exodus 15

New International Reader's Version NIRV

1 Here is the song that Moses and the people of Israel sang to the Lord. They said, "I will sing to the Lord. He is greatly honored. He has thrown Pharaoh's horses and their riders into the Red Sea.

2 The LORD gives me strength. I sing about him. He has saved me. He is my God. I will praise him. He is my father's God. I will honor him.

3 The LORD goes into battle. The LORD is his name.

4 He has thrown Pharaoh's chariots and army into the Red Sea. Pharaoh's best officers drowned in the sea.

5 The deep waters covered them. They sank to the bottom like a stone.

6 "Lord, your right hand was majestic and powerful. Lord, your right hand destroyed your enemies.

7 Because of your great majesty, you threw down those who opposed you. Your burning anger blazed out. It burned them up like straw.

8 The powerful blast from your nose piled up the waters. The rushing waters stood firm like a wall. The deep waters stood up in the middle of the sea.

9 "Your enemies bragged, 'We will chase Israel. We will catch them. We'll divide up what we take from them. We'll eat them alive. We'll pull our swords out. Our powerful hands will destroy them.'

10 But you blew with your breath. The Red Sea covered your enemies. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.

11 "Lord, who among the gods is like you? Who is like you? You are majestic and holy. Your glory fills me with wonder. You do wonderful miracles.

12 You reached out your right hand. The earth swallowed up the Egyptians.

13 "Because your love is faithful, you will lead the people you have set free. Because you are so strong, you will guide them to the holy place where you live.

14 The nations will hear about it and tremble. Pain and suffering will take hold of the Philistines.

15 The chiefs of Edom will be terrified. The leaders of Moab will tremble with fear. The people of Canaan will melt away.

16 Fear and terror will fall on them. Your powerful arm will make them as still as a stone. Then your people will pass by, Lord. Then the people you created will pass by.

17 You will bring them in. You will plant them on the mountain you gave them. LORD, you have made that place your home. Lord, your hands have made your holy place secure.

18 "The LORD will rule for ever and ever."

19 Pharaoh's horses, chariots and horsemen went into the Red Sea. The LORD brought the waters of the sea back over them. But the people of Israel walked through the sea on dry ground.

20 Aaron's sister Miriam was a prophet. She took a tambourine in her hand. All the women followed her. They played tambourines and danced.

21 Miriam sang to them, "Sing to the Lord. He is greatly honored. He has thrown Pharaoh's horses and their riders into the Red Sea."

22 Then Moses led Israel away from the Red Sea. They went into the Desert of Shur. For three days they traveled in the desert. They didn't find any water there.

23 When they came to Marah, they couldn't drink its water. It was bitter. That's why the place is named Marah.

24 The people told Moses they weren't happy with him. They said, "What are we supposed to drink?"

25 Then Moses cried out to the Lord. The LORD showed him a stick. Moses threw it into the water. The water became sweet. There the LORD made a rule and a law for the people. And there he put them to the test.

26 He said, "I am the LORD your God. Listen carefully to my voice. Do what is right in my eyes. Pay attention to my commands. Obey all of my rules. If you do, I will not send on you any of the sicknesses I sent on the Egyptians. I am the LORD who heals you."

27 The people came to Elim. It had 12 springs and 70 palm trees. They camped there near the water.

4 Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath He cast into the sea; his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea.

5 The depths have covered them; they sank into the bottom as a stone.

6 Thy right hand, O LORD, has become glorious in power; Thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

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

8 And with the blast of Thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as a heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

9 The enemy said, `I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them. I will draw my sword; my hand shall destroy them.'

10 Thou didst blow with Thy wind, the sea covered them; they sank as lead in the mighty waters.

11 "Who is like unto Thee, O LORD, among the gods? Who is like Thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

12 Thou stretchedst out Thy right hand; the earth swallowed them.

13 Thou in Thy mercy hast led forth the people whom Thou hast redeemed; Thou hast guided them in Thy strength unto Thy holy habitation.

14 "The people shall hear and be afraid; sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.

15 Then the chiefs of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.

16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them. By the greatness of Thine arm they shall be as still as a stone, till Thy people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass over, whom Thou hast purchased.

17 Thou shalt bring them in and plant them in the mountain of Thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which Thou hast made for Thee to dwell in, in the sanctuary, O Lord, which Thy hands have established.

18 The LORD shall reign for ever and ever."

26 and said, "If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in His sight, and wilt give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee which I have brought upon the Egyptians; for I am the LORD that healeth thee."
