[1]And ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ spoke unto Moses, saying: [1]Then the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
[2]'Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal-zephon, over against it shall ye encamp by the sea. [2]Speak to the children of Israel, that they return and camp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baal-zephon: about it shall ye camp by the sea.
[3]And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel: They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in. [3]For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are tangled in the land: the wilderness hath shut them in.
[4]And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he shall follow after them; and I will get Me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; and the Egyptians shall know that I am ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎.' And they did so. [4]And I will harden Pharaoh's heart that he shall follow after you: so I will get me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host: the Egyptians also shall know that I am the Lord: and they did so.
[5]And it was told the king of Egypt that the people were fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned towards the people, and they said: 'What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us? [5]Then it was told the king of Egypt, that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we this done, and have let Israel go out of our service?
[6]And he made ready his chariots, and took his people with him. [6]And he made ready his chariots, and took his people with him,
[7]And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over all of them. [7]And took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.
[8]And ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand. [8](For the Lord had hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he followed after the children of Israel: but the children of Israel went out with an high hand)
[9]And the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, in front of Baal-zephon. [9]And the Egyptians pursued after them, and all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen and his host overtook them camping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.
[10]And whe Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were sore afraid; and the children of Israel cried out unto ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎. [10]And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lift up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them, and they were sore afraid: wherefore the children of Israel cried unto the Lord.
[11]And they said unto Moses: 'Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to bring us forth out of Egypt? [11]And they said unto Moses, Hast thou brought us to die in the wilderness, because there were no graves in Egypt? Wherefore hast thou served us thus, to carry us out of Egypt?
[12]Is not this the word that we spoke unto thee in Egypt, saying: Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it were better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.' [12]Did not we tell thee this thing in Egypt, saying, Let us be in rest, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.
[13]And Moses said unto the people: 'Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎, which He will work for you to-day; for whereas ye have seen the Egyptians to-day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. [13]Then Moses said to the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and behold the salvation of the Lord which he will show to you this day. For the Egyptians, whom ye have seen this day, ye shall never see them again.
[14]‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.' [14]The Lord shall fight for you: therefore hold you your peace.
[15]And ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ said unto Moses: 'Wherefore criest thou unto Me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward. [15]And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore cryest thou unto me? Speak unto the children of Israel that they go forward:
[16]And lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go into the midst of the sea on dry ground. [16]And lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand upon the sea and divide it, and let the children of Israel go on dry ground thorough the midst of the sea.
[17]And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them; and I will get Me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen. [17]And I, behold I will harden the heart of the Egyptians, that they may follow them, and I will get me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
[18]And the Egyptians shall know that I am ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎, when I have gotten Me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.' [18]Then the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I have gotten me honor upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
[19]And the angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud removed from before them, and stood behind them; [19](And the Angel of God, which went before the host of Israel, removed and went behind them: also the pillar of the cloud went from before them, and stood behind them,
[20]And it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud and the darkness here, yet gave it light by night there; and the one came not near the other all the night. [20]And came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel: it was both a cloud and darkness, yet gave it light by night, so that all the night long the one came not at the other)
[21]And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided. [21]And Moses stretched forth his hand upon the sea, and the Lord caused the sea to run back by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land: for the waters were divided.
[22]And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left. [22]Then the children of Israel went through the midst of the sea upon the dry ground, and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left hand.
[23]And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen. [23]And the Egyptians pursued and went after them to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
[24]And it came to pass in the morning watch, that ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ looked forth upon the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of cloud, and discomfited the host of the Egyptians. [24]Now in the morning watch, when the Lord looked unto the host of the Egyptians, out of the fiery and cloudy pillar, he stroke the host of the Egyptians with fear.
[25]And He took off their chariot wheels, and made them to drive heavily; so that the Egyptians said: 'Let us flee from the face of Israel; for ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ fighteth for them against the Egyptians.' [25]For he took off their chariot wheels, and they drove them with much ado: so that the Egyptians every one said, I will flee from the face of Israel: for the Lord fighteth for them against the Egyptians.
[26]And ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ said unto Moses: 'Stretch out thy hand over the sea, that the waters may come back upon t Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.' [26]Then the Lord said to Moses, Stretch thine hand upon the sea, that the waters may return upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots and upon their horsemen.
[27]And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea. [27]Then Moses stretched forth his hand upon the sea, and the sea returned to his force early in the morning, and the Egyptians fled against it: but the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
[28]And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, even all the host of Pharaoh that went in after them into the sea; there remained not so much as one of them. [28]So the water returned and covered the chariots and the horsemen , even all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them: there remained not one of them.
[29]But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left. [29]But the children of Israel walked upon dry land thorough the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.
[30]Thus ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea-shore. [30]Thus the Lord saved Israel the same day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea bank.
[31]And Israel saw the great work which ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ did upon the Egyptians, and the people feared ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎; and they believed in ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎, and in His servant Moses. [31]And Israel saw the mighty power, which the Lord showed upon the Egyptians: so the people feared the Lord, and believed the Lord, and his servant Moses.
