2 Samuel 22:16

New Living Translation

Then at the command of the Lord, at the blast of his breath, the bottom of the sea could be seen, and the foundations of the earth were laid bare.

See the chapter Copy

Smoke poured from his nostrils; fierce flames leaped from his mouth. Glowing coals blazed forth from him.

I said, ‘This far and no farther will you come. Here your proud waves must stop!’

He commanded the Red Sea to dry up. He led Israel across the sea as if it were a desert.

O God, why have you rejected us so long? Why is your anger so intense against the sheep of your own pasture?

And now, O mountains, listen to the Lord’s complaint! He has a case against his people. He will bring charges against Israel.

At his command the oceans dry up, and the rivers disappear. The lush pastures of Bashan and Carmel fade, and the green forests of Lebanon wither.
