The Red Sea Crossing

14Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:H3068H1696H4872H559 2"Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn and camp before Pi Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal Zephon; you shall camp before it by the sea.H1696H1121H3478H7725H2583H6440H6367H4024H3220H6440H1189H5226H2583H3220 3"For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, 'They are bewildered by the land; the wilderness has closed them in.'H6547H559H1121H3478H943H776H4057H5462 4"Then I will harden Pharaoh's heart, so that he will pursue them; and I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, that the Egyptians may know that I am the LORD." And they did so.H2388H6547H3820H7291H310H3513H6547H2428H4714H3045H3068H6213 5Now it was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people; and they said, "Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?"H5046H4428H4714H5971H1272H3824H6547H5650H2015H5971H559H6213H3478H7971H5647 6So he made ready his chariot and took his people with him.H631H7393H3947H5971 7Also, he took six hundred choice chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt with captains over every one of them.H3947H8337H3967H977H7393H7393H4714H7991 8And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; and the children of Israel went out with boldness.H3068H2388H3820H6547H4428H4714H7291H310H1121H3478H1121H3478H3318H7311H3027 9So the Egyptians pursued them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen and his army, and overtook them camping by the sea beside Pi Hahiroth, before Baal Zephon.H4714H7291H310H5483H7393H6547H6571H2428H5381H2583H3220H6367H6440H1189 10And when Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them. So they were very afraid, and the children of Israel cried out to the LORD.H6547H7126H1121H3478H5375H5869H4714H5265H310H3966H3372H1121H3478H6817H3068 11Then they said to Moses, "Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you so dealt with us, to bring us up out of Egypt?H559H4872H6913H4714H3947H4191H4057H2063H6213H3318H4714 12"Is this not the word that we told you in Egypt, saying, 'Let us alone that we may serve the Egyptians?' For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than that we should die in the wilderness."H1697H1696H4714H559H2308H5647H4714H2896H5647H4714H4191H4057 13And Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever.H4872H559H5971H3372H3320H7200H3444H3068H6213H3117H4714H7200H3117H7200H3254H5704H5769 14"The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace."H3068H3898H2790 15And the LORD said to Moses, "Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward.H3068H559H4872H6817H1696H1121H3478H5265 16"But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.H7311H4294H5186H3027H3220H1234H1121H3478H935H3004H8432H3220 17"And I indeed will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them. So I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, his chariots, and his horsemen.H2388H3820H4714H935H310H3513H6547H2428H7393H6571 18"Then the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gained honor for Myself over Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen."H4714H3045H3068H3513H6547H7393H6571 19And the Angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud went from before them and stood behind them.H4397H430H1980H6440H4264H3478H5265H3212H310H5982H6051H5265H6440H5975H310 20So it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel. Thus it was a cloud and darkness to the one, and it gave light by night to the other, so that the one did not come near the other all that night.H935H4264H4714H4264H3478H6051H2822H215H3915H7126H2088H3915 21Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land, and the waters were divided.H4872H5186H3027H3220H3068H3220H3212H5794H6921H7307H3915H7760H3220H2724H4325H1234 22So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.H1121H3478H935H8432H3220H3004H4325H2346H3225H8040 23And the Egyptians pursued and went after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.H4714H7291H935H310H8432H3220H6547H5483H7393H6571 24Now it came to pass, in the morning watch, that the LORD looked down upon the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud, and He troubled the army of the Egyptians.H1242H821H3068H8259H4264H4714H5982H784H6051H2000H4264H4714 25And He took off their chariot wheels, so that they drove them with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, "Let us flee from the face of Israel, for the LORD fights for them against the Egyptians."H5493H4818H212H5090H3517H4714H559H5127H6440H3478H3068H3898H4714 26Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come back upon the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen."H3068H559H4872H5186H3027H3220H4325H7725H4714H7393H6571 27And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and when the morning appeared, the sea returned to its full depth, while the Egyptians were fleeing into it. So the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.H4872H5186H3027H3220H3220H7725H386H1242H6437H4714H5127H7125H3068H5287H4714H8432H3220 28Then the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, and all the army of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them. Not so much as one of them remained.H4325H7725H3680H7393H6571H2428H6547H935H3220H310H7604H5704H259 29But the children of Israel had walked on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.H1121H3478H1980H3004H8432H3220H4325H2346H3225H8040 30So the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.H3068H3467H3478H3117H3027H4714H3478H7200H4714H4191H3220H8193 31Thus Israel saw the great work which the LORD had done in Egypt; so the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD and His servant Moses.H3478H7200H1419H3027H3068H6213H4714H5971H3372H3068H539H3068H5650H4872
