摩西之歌

15 那时,摩西以色列人向耶和华唱这歌,说:

“我要向耶和华歌唱,因他大大得胜,
将马和骑马的投在海中。
耶和华是我的力量,是我的诗歌,
他也成了我的拯救。
这是我的 神,我要赞美他;
我父亲的 神,我要尊崇他。
耶和华是战士;
耶和华是他的名。

“法老的战车、军兵,他已抛在海中;
法老精选的军官都沉于红海
深水淹没他们;
他们好像石头坠到深处。
耶和华啊,你的右手施展能力,大显荣耀;
耶和华啊,你的右手摔碎仇敌。
你大发威严,摧毁了你的敌人;
你发出烈怒,吞灭他们如同碎秸。
因你鼻中的气,水就聚成堆,
大水竖立如垒,
海的中心深水凝结。
仇敌说:‘我要追赶,我要追上,
我要分掳物,在他们身上满足我的心愿,
我要拔刀,亲手毁灭他们。’
10 你用风一吹,海水就淹没他们;
他们像铅沉在大水之中。

11 “耶和华啊,众神明中,谁能像你?
谁能像你,至圣至荣,
可颂可畏,施行奇事!
12 你伸出右手,
地就吞灭他们。

13 “你以慈爱引领你所救赎的百姓;
你以能力引导他们到你的圣所。
14 万民听见就战抖;
疼痛抓住非利士的居民。
15 那时,以东的族长惊惶,
摩押的英雄被战兢抓住,
迦南所有的居民都融化。
16 惊骇恐惧临到他们;
耶和华啊,因你膀臂的大能,
他们如石头寂静不动,
等候你百姓过去,
等候你所赎的百姓过去。
17 你要将他们领进去,栽在你产业的山上,
耶和华啊,就是你为自己所造的住处,
主啊,就是你手所建立的圣所。
18 耶和华必作王,直到永永远远!”

19 法老的马匹、战车和战车长下到海中,耶和华使海水回流到他们身上;以色列人却走在海中的干地上。

米利暗的歌

20 那时,米利暗女先知,亚伦的姊姊,手里拿着铃鼓;众妇女也跟她出去打鼓跳舞。 21 米利暗回应他们:

“你们要歌颂耶和华,因他大大得胜,
将马和骑马的投在海中。”

苦水变甜

22 摩西以色列人从红海起程,到了书珥的旷野,在旷野走了三天,找不到水。 23 到了玛拉,他们不能喝玛拉的水,因为水是苦的;所以那地名叫玛拉 24 百姓就向摩西发怨言,说:“我们喝什么呢?” 25 摩西呼求耶和华,耶和华指示他一棵树[a]。他把树丢在水里,水就变甜了。

耶和华在那里为他们定了律例、典章,在那里考验他们。 26 他说:“你若留心听从耶和华—你 神的话,行我眼中看为正的事,侧耳听我的诫令,遵守我一切的律例,我就不将所加于埃及人的疾病加在你身上,因为我是医治你的耶和华。”

27 他们到了以琳,在那里有十二股水泉,七十棵棕树;他们就在那里的水边安营。

摩西頌讚耶和華

15 那時,摩西和以色列人便歌頌耶和華說:

「我要歌頌耶和華,
因祂大獲全勝,
祂把戰馬騎兵都捲入海中。
耶和華是我的力量,我的詩歌,
也成了我的拯救;
祂是我的上帝,我要讚美祂;
祂是我父親的上帝,我要尊崇祂。
耶和華是戰士,
祂名叫耶和華。
祂把法老的戰車和全軍都拋進海中,
法老的優秀將領都葬身於紅海,
大水淹沒他們,
他們如同石塊沉入深海。
耶和華啊,你大能的右手顯出榮耀;
耶和華啊,你的右手擊碎仇敵。
你大顯威嚴,擊倒那些起來對抗你的人;
你大發雷霆,他們便像枯草遇火,
一燒而盡。
你的鼻孔一呼氣,海水便堆聚起來,
洪濤便堆起水牆,海底深處也都凝固。
敵人說,『追啊,追上他們,
瓜分他們的財物,盡情地擄掠他們,
拔出刀來把他們斬盡殺絕。』
10 你叫風一吹,海水就淹沒他們,
他們好像鉛塊一樣沉沒在怒海中。
11 耶和華啊,萬神之中,誰能像你?
誰能像你——威嚴神聖,
可頌可畏,廣行神蹟?
12 你伸出右手,大地便吞滅他們。
13 你以不變的愛引領你所救贖的子民,
以大能帶他們進入你的聖所。
14 各邦各族聽見這些事就發抖,
非利士人也痛苦不堪,
15 以東的族長惶恐,
摩押的英雄顫慄,
迦南的居民都膽戰心驚。
16 驚駭恐懼籠罩著他們。
耶和華啊,
你臂膀的大能嚇得他們僵立如石,
直到你的子民都安然走過,
直到你買贖的子民都安然走過。
17 耶和華啊,
你要帶領自己的子民到你的山上安居——
到你為自己所造的住處,
主啊,到你親手建的聖所。

18 「耶和華必做王,直到永永遠遠。」

19 法老的戰車和騎兵追到海中,耶和華使海水回流淹沒他們,以色列人卻在海中踏著乾地走到對岸。 20 亞倫的姐姐米利暗是個先知,她手拿小鼓,帶領婦女擊鼓跳舞, 21 唱道:「要歌頌耶和華,因祂大獲全勝,把馬和騎兵都拋進海中。」

苦水

22 摩西帶領以色列人離開紅海,來到書珥曠野,走了三天仍然找不到水喝。 23 到了瑪拉,那裡的水卻是苦的,不能喝。因此那地方叫瑪拉[a] 24 百姓就埋怨摩西說:「我們喝什麼呢?」 25 摩西向耶和華呼求,耶和華就指示他把一棵樹丟在水中,使水變得甘甜。耶和華又在瑪拉給百姓定下一些律例和法令,並在那裡試驗他們, 26 說:「你們若留心聽你們上帝耶和華的話,做我視為正的事,遵守我所定下的律例,我就不把降在埃及的疾病加在你們身上,因為我耶和華是醫治你們的上帝。」

27 到了以琳,那裡有十二股水泉和七十棵棕樹,他們就在水邊安營。

The Song of Moses and Miriam

15 Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song(A) to the Lord:

“I will sing(B) to the Lord,
    for he is highly exalted.
Both horse and driver(C)
    he has hurled into the sea.(D)

“The Lord is my strength(E) and my defense[a];
    he has become my salvation.(F)
He is my God,(G) and I will praise him,
    my father’s God, and I will exalt(H) him.
The Lord is a warrior;(I)
    the Lord is his name.(J)
Pharaoh’s chariots and his army(K)
    he has hurled into the sea.
The best of Pharaoh’s officers
    are drowned in the Red Sea.[b]
The deep waters(L) have covered them;
    they sank to the depths like a stone.(M)
Your right hand,(N) Lord,
    was majestic in power.
Your right hand,(O) Lord,
    shattered(P) the enemy.

“In the greatness of your majesty(Q)
    you threw down those who opposed you.
You unleashed your burning anger;(R)
    it consumed(S) them like stubble.
By the blast of your nostrils(T)
    the waters piled up.(U)
The surging waters stood up like a wall;(V)
    the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea.(W)
The enemy boasted,
    ‘I will pursue,(X) I will overtake them.
I will divide the spoils;(Y)
    I will gorge myself on them.
I will draw my sword
    and my hand will destroy them.’
10 But you blew with your breath,(Z)
    and the sea covered them.
They sank like lead
    in the mighty waters.(AA)
11 Who among the gods
    is like you,(AB) Lord?
Who is like you—
    majestic in holiness,(AC)
awesome in glory,(AD)
    working wonders?(AE)

12 “You stretch out(AF) your right hand,
    and the earth swallows your enemies.(AG)
13 In your unfailing love you will lead(AH)
    the people you have redeemed.(AI)
In your strength you will guide them
    to your holy dwelling.(AJ)
14 The nations will hear and tremble;(AK)
    anguish(AL) will grip the people of Philistia.(AM)
15 The chiefs(AN) of Edom(AO) will be terrified,
    the leaders of Moab will be seized with trembling,(AP)
the people[c] of Canaan will melt(AQ) away;
16     terror(AR) and dread will fall on them.
By the power of your arm
    they will be as still as a stone(AS)
until your people pass by, Lord,
    until the people you bought[d](AT) pass by.(AU)
17 You will bring(AV) them in and plant(AW) them
    on the mountain(AX) of your inheritance—
the place, Lord, you made for your dwelling,(AY)
    the sanctuary,(AZ) Lord, your hands established.

18 “The Lord reigns
    for ever and ever.”(BA)

19 When Pharaoh’s horses, chariots and horsemen[e] went into the sea,(BB) the Lord brought the waters of the sea back over them, but the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground.(BC) 20 Then Miriam(BD) the prophet,(BE) Aaron’s sister, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women followed her, with timbrels(BF) and dancing.(BG) 21 Miriam sang(BH) to them:

“Sing to the Lord,
    for he is highly exalted.
Both horse and driver(BI)
    he has hurled into the sea.”(BJ)

The Waters of Marah and Elim

22 Then Moses led Israel from the Red Sea and they went into the Desert(BK) of Shur.(BL) For three days they traveled in the desert without finding water.(BM) 23 When they came to Marah, they could not drink its water because it was bitter. (That is why the place is called Marah.[f](BN)) 24 So the people grumbled(BO) against Moses, saying, “What are we to drink?”(BP)

25 Then Moses cried out(BQ) to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a piece of wood. He threw(BR) it into the water, and the water became fit to drink.

There the Lord issued a ruling and instruction for them and put them to the test.(BS) 26 He said, “If you listen carefully to the Lord your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep(BT) all his decrees,(BU) I will not bring on you any of the diseases(BV) I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, who heals(BW) you.”

27 Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs and seventy palm trees, and they camped(BX) there near the water.
