Exodus 14:22-29

22 And ^athe people of Israel went into the midst of the sea on dry ground, the waters being ^ba wall to them on their right hand and on their left. 23 The Egyptians pursued and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen. 24 And in the morning watch the Lord in the pillar of fire and of cloud looked down on the Egyptian forces and threw the Egyptian forces into a panic, 25 clogging ^{▼▼Or binding (compare Samaritan, Septuagint, Syriac); Hebrew removing} their chariot wheels so that they drove heavily. And the Egyptians said, “Let us flee from before Israel, for the ^dLord fights for them against the Egyptians.”

26 Then the Lord said to Moses, ^e“Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the water may come back upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.” 27 ^fSo Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea ^greturned to its normal course when the morning appeared. And as the Egyptians fled into it, the Lord ^hthrew ^{▼▼Hebrew shook off} the Egyptians into the midst of the sea. 28 The ^jwaters returned and covered the chariots and the horsemen; of all the host of Pharaoh that had followed them into the sea, ^knot one of them remained. 29 But the ^lpeople of Israel walked on dry ground through the sea, the waters being a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
