(A)Pharaoh’s chariots and his army He has cast into the sea;

The depths have covered them;
(C)They sank to the bottom like a stone.

“Your (D)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 (E)excellence
You have overthrown those who rose against You;
You sent forth (F)Your wrath;
It (G)consumed them (H)like stubble.

The waters were gathered together;

The depths [a]congealed in the heart of the sea.
(K)The enemy said, ‘I will pursue,

I will (L)divide the spoil;
My desire shall be satisfied on them.
I will draw my sword,
My hand shall destroy them.’
