¹⁵ but he hurled Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea.
His faithful love endures forever.

⁵³ He kept them safe so they were not afraid;
    but the sea covered their enemies.

⁹ He performed miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt
    against Pharaoh and all his people.

⁷¹ Now we will be saved from our enemies
    and from all who hate us.
⁷² He has been merciful to our ancestors
    by remembering his sacred covenant—
⁷³ the covenant he swore with an oath
    to our ancestor Abraham.
⁷⁴ We have been rescued from our enemies
    so we can serve God without fear,

¹² In your unfailing love, silence all my enemies
    and destroy all my foes,
    for I am your servant.

⁶ Pour out your wrath on the nations that refuse to acknowledge you—
    on kingdoms that do not call upon your name.
⁷ For they have devoured your people Israel,^[a]
    making the land a desolate wilderness.
⁸ Do not hold us guilty for the sins of our ancestors!
    Let your compassion quickly meet our needs,
    for we are on the brink of despair.

⁹ Help us, O God of our salvation!
    Help us for the glory of your name.
Save us and forgive our sins
    for the honor of your name.

⁵ You faithfully answer our prayers with awesome deeds,
    O God our savior.
You are the hope of everyone on earth,
    even those who sail on distant seas.

¹⁰ But you blew with your breath,
    and the sea covered them.
They sank like lead
    in the mighty waters.

¹¹ “Who is like you among the gods, O Lord—
    glorious in holiness,
awesome in splendor,
    performing great wonders?
¹² You raised your right hand,
    and the earth swallowed our enemies.

¹³ “With your unfailing love you lead
    the people you have redeemed.
In your might, you guide them
    to your sacred home.

⁴ Pharaoh’s chariots and army
    he has hurled into the sea.
The finest of Pharaoh’s officers
    are drowned in the Red Sea.^[a]
5 The deep waters gushed over them;
    they sank to the bottom like a stone.
