⁶ “Your right hand, O Lord,
    is glorious in power.
Your right hand, O Lord,
    shatters the enemy.
⁷ In the greatness of Your excellence,
    You overthrow those who rise up against You.
You send out Your wrath;
    it consumes them like stubble.
⁸ With the blast of Your nostrils
    the waters were gathered together.
The flowing waters stood upright as a heap;
    and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

⁹ “The enemy said,
    ‘I will pursue. I will overtake.
I will divide the spoil;
    my lust shall be satisfied upon them.

    my hand shall destroy them.’

    and the sea covered them;
they sank like lead
    in the mighty waters.

¹¹ “Who is like You, O Lord, among the gods?

        doing wonders?

    and the earth swallowed them.

¹⁵ Then the chiefs of Edom were amazed;
    the mighty men of Moab, trembling takes hold of them;

¹⁶     Fear and dread fall upon them;
by the greatness of Your arm
    they are as still as a stone,
until Your people pass over, O Lord,
    until the people whom You have purchased pass over.
¹⁷ You shall bring them in, and plant them
    on the mountain of Your inheritance,
in the place, O Lord, which You have made for Your dwelling,
    in the sanctuary, O Lord, which Your hands have established.
¹⁸ The Lord will reign
    forever and ever.”
