Exodus 14:15-30
15 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to Me? Tell the sons of Israel to go forward. 16As for you, lift up ayour staff and reach out with your hand over the sea and divide it, and the sons of Israel shall ▼▼Lit enter the
go through the midst of the sea on dry land. 17And as for Me, behold, cI will ▼▼Lit make strong
harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them; and I will be honored through Pharaoh and all his army, through his chariots and his horsemen. 18 eThen the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, when I am honored through Pharaoh, through his chariots, and through his horsemen.” 19 Then fthe angel of God, who had been going before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them and stood behind them. 20So it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud ▼▼Lit and the darkness
along with the darkness, yet it gave light at night. Therefore the one did not approach the other all night. 21 hThen Moses reached out with his hand over the sea; and the Lord ▼▼Lit caused to go
swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night, and turned the sea into jdry land, and kthe waters were divided. 22So lthe sons of Israel ▼▼Lit entered the
went through the midst of the sea on the dry land, and nthe waters were like a wall to them on their right and on their left. 23Then othe Egyptians took up the pursuit, and all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen went in after them into the midst of the sea. 24But at the morning watch, pthe Lord looked down on the ▼▼Lit camp
army of the Egyptians ▼▼Or in
through the pillar of fire and cloud, and brought the ▼▼Lit camp
army of the Egyptians into confusion. 25He ▼▼Or removed

right into it; then the Lord ▼▼Lit shook off
