Exodus 14:23-28

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 ^bLord fights for them against the Egyptians.”

26 Then the Lord said to Moses, ^c“Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the water may come back upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.” 27 ^dSo Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea ^ereturned to its normal course when the morning appeared. And as the Egyptians fled into it, the Lord ^fthrew ^{▼▼Hebrew shook off} the Egyptians into the midst of the sea. 28 The ^hwaters returned and covered the chariots and the horsemen; of all the host of Pharaoh that had followed them into the sea, ⁱnot one of them remained.
