“Your (A)right hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power;
Your right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces.
And in the greatness of Your (B)excellence
You have overthrown those who rose against You;
You sent forth (C)Your wrath;
It (D)consumed them (E)like stubble.
And (F)with the blast of Your nostrils
The waters were gathered together;
(G)The floods stood upright like a heap;
The depths [a]congealed in the heart of the sea.
(H)The enemy said, ‘I will pursue,
I will overtake,
I will (I)divide the spoil;
My desire shall be satisfied on them.
I will draw my sword,
My hand shall destroy them.’
10 You blew with Your wind,
The sea covered them;
They sank like lead in the mighty waters.

11 “Who(J) is like You, O Lord, among the [b]gods?
Who is like You, (K)glorious in holiness,
Fearful in (L)praises, (M)doing wonders?
12 You stretched out Your right hand;
The earth swallowed them.
13 You in Your mercy have (N)led forth
The people whom You have redeemed;
You have guided them in Your strength
To (O)Your holy habitation.
