Thussaysthe LORD,Who makesa waythrough the seaAnd a paththrough the mightywaters,
"You dividedthe seabeforethem, So they passedthrough the midstof the seaon dryground;And their pursuersYou hurledinto the depths,Likea stoneinto ragingwaters.
Thus He rebukedthe RedSeaand it driedup, And He ledthem through the deeps,as through the wilderness.
Your waywas in the seaAnd Your pathsin the mightywaters,And Your footprintsmay not be known.
You ledYour peoplelike a flockBy the handof Mosesand Aaron.
He dividedthe seaand caused them to passthrough,And He made the watersstandup likea heap.
"As for you, liftup your staffand stretchout your handoverthe seaand divideit, and the sonsof Israelshall gothroughthe midstof the seaon dryland.
But the sonsof Israelwalkedon drylandthrough the midstof the sea,and the waters[were like] a wallto them on their righthandand on their left.
"Whenyou passthrough the waters,I will be with you; And through the rivers,they will not overflowyou. Whenyou walkthroughthe fire,you will not be scorched,Norwill the flameburnyou.
"[It is I] who saysto the depthof the sea,'Be driedup!' And I will makeyour riversdry.
"Whywas therenomanwhen I came?When I called,[why] was therenoneto answer?Is My handsoshortthat it cannotransom?OrhaveI nopowerto deliver?Behold,I dryup the seawith My rebuke,I makethe riversa wilderness;Their fishstinkfor lackof waterAnd dieof thirst.
Was it not You who driedup the sea,The watersof the greatdeep;Who madethe depthsof the seaa pathwayFor the redeemedto crossover?
"For I am the LORDyour God,who stirsup the seaand its wavesroar(the LORDof hostsis His name).
Thussaysthe LORD,Who givesthe sunfor lightby dayAnd the fixedorderof the moonand the starsfor lightby night,Who stirsup the seaso that its wavesroar;The LORDof hostsis His name:
The sixth[angel] pouredout his bowlon the greatriver,the Euphrates;and its waterwas driedup, sothat the waywould be preparedfor the kingsfrom the east.
