16 Yahweh, who makes a way in the sea,

    and a path in the mighty waters,
17 who brings out the chariot and horse,
    the army and the mighty man
    (they lie down together, they shall not rise;
    they are extinct, they are quenched like a wick) says:
18 “Don’t remember the former things,
    and don’t consider the things of old.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing.
    It springs out now.
    Don’t you know it?
I will even make a way in the wilderness,
    and rivers in the desert.
20 The animals of the field, the jackals and the ostriches, shall honor me,
    because I give water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert,
    to give drink to my people, my chosen,
21     the people which I formed for myself,
    that they might declare my praise.

    he who made a way through the sea,
    a path through the mighty waters,(A)
17 who drew out(B) the chariots and horses,(C)
    the army and reinforcements together,(D)
and they lay(E) there, never to rise again,
    extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:(F)
18 “Forget the former things;(G)
    do not dwell on the past.
19 See, I am doing a new thing!(H)
    Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness(I)
    and streams in the wasteland.(J)
20 The wild animals(K) honor me,
    the jackals(L) and the owls,
because I provide water(M) in the wilderness
    and streams in the wasteland,
to give drink to my people, my chosen,
21     the people I formed(N) for myself(O)
    that they may proclaim my praise.(P)
