  1. 1 Peter 1:18 perishable

The Lord is a warrior;(A)
    the Lord is his name.(B)
Pharaoh’s chariots and his army(C)
    he has hurled into the sea.
The best of Pharaoh’s officers
    are drowned in the Red Sea.[a]
The deep waters(D) have covered them;
    they sank to the depths like a stone.(E)
Your right hand,(F) Lord,
    was majestic in power.
Your right hand,(G) Lord,
    shattered(H) the enemy.

“In the greatness of your majesty(I)
    you threw down those who opposed you.
You unleashed your burning anger;(J)
    it consumed(K) them like stubble.
By the blast of your nostrils(L)
    the waters piled up.(M)
The surging waters stood up like a wall;(N)
    the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea.(O)
The enemy boasted,
    ‘I will pursue,(P) I will overtake them.
I will divide the spoils;(Q)
    I will gorge myself on them.
I will draw my sword
    and my hand will destroy them.’

  1. Exodus 15:4 Or the Sea of Reeds; also in verse 22

The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name.

Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.

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

Thy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

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.

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

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.
