Exodus 14:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 The LORD spoke to Moses:
2 "Tell the Israelites that they must turn and camp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea; you are to camp by the sea before Baal Zephon opposite it.
3 Pharaoh will think regarding the Israelites, 'They are wandering around confused in the land� the desert has closed in on them.'
4 I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he will chase after them. I will gain honor because of Pharaoh and because of all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD." So this is what they did.
5 When it was reported to the king of Egypt that the people had fled, the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people, and the king and his servants said, "What in the world have we done? For we have released the people of Israel from serving us!"
6 Then he prepared his chariots and took his army with him.
7 He took six hundred select chariots, and all the rest of the chariots of Egypt, and officers on all of them.
8 But the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he chased after the Israelites. Now the Israelites were going out defiantly.
9 The Egyptians chased after them, and all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh and his horsemen and his army overtook them camping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-Zephon.
10 When Pharaoh got closer, the Israelites looked up, and there were the Egyptians marching after them, and they were terrified. The Israelites cried out to the LORD,
11 and they said to Moses, "Is it because there are no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the desert? What in the world have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt?
12 Isn't this what we told you in Egypt, 'Leave us alone so that we can serve the Egyptians, because it is better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert!'"
13 Moses said to the people, "Do not fear! Stand firm and see the salvation of the LORD that he will provide for you today; for the Egyptians that you see today you will never, ever see again.
14 The LORD will fight for you, and you can be still."
15 The LORD said to Moses, "Why do you cry out to me? Tell the Israelites to move on.
16 And as for you, lift up your staff and extend your hand toward the sea and divide it, so that the Israelites may go through the middle of the sea on dry ground.
17 And as for me, I am going to harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will come after them, that I may be honored because of Pharaoh and his army and his chariots and his horsemen.
18 And the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I have gained my honor because of Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen."
19 The angel of God, who was going before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them, and the pillar of cloud moved from before them and stood behind them.
20 It came between the Egyptian camp and the Israelite camp; it was a dark cloud and it lit up the night so that one camp did not come near the other the whole night.
21 Moses stretched out his hand toward the sea, and the LORD drove the sea apart by a strong east wind all that night, and he made the sea into dry land, and the water was divided.
22 So the Israelites went through the middle of the sea on dry ground, the water forming a wall for them on their right and on their left.
23 The Egyptians chased them and followed them into the middle of the sea� all the horses of Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.
24 In the morning watch the LORD looked down on the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and cloud, and he threw the Egyptian army into a panic.
25 He jammed the wheels of their chariots so that they had difficulty driving, and the Egyptians said, "Let's flee from Israel, for the LORD fights for them against Egypt!"
26 The LORD said to Moses, "Extend your hand toward the sea, so that the waters may flow back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen!"
27 So Moses extended his hand toward the sea, and the sea returned to its normal state when the sun began to rise. Now the Egyptians were fleeing before it, but the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the middle of the sea.
28 The water returned and covered the chariots and the horsemen and all the army of Pharaoh that was coming after the Israelites into the sea� not so much as one of them survived!
29 But the Israelites walked on dry ground in the middle of the sea, the water forming a wall for them on their right and on their left.
30 So the LORD saved Israel on that day from the power of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the shore of the sea.
31 When Israel saw the great power that the LORD had exercised over the Egyptians, they feared the LORD, and they believed in the LORD and in his servant Moses.
1 And the LORD H3068 spoke H1696 unto H413 Moses, H4872 saying, H559
2 Speak H1696 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 that they turn H7725 and encamp H2583 before H6440 Pi- H6367 hahiroth, between H996 Migdol H4024 and the sea, H3220 over against H6440 Baal- H1189 zephon: before H5226 it shall ye encamp H2583 by H5921 the sea. H3220
3 For Pharaoh H6547 will say H559 of the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 They H1992 are entangled H943 in the land, H776 the wilderness H4057 hath shut them in H5462 H5921 .
4 And I will harden H2388 H853 Pharaoh's H6547 heart, H3820 that he shall follow H7291 after H310 them ; and I will be honored H3513 upon Pharaoh, H6547 and upon all H3605 his host; H2428 that the Egyptians H4714 may know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD. H3068 And they did H6213 so. H3651
5 And it was told H5046 the king H4428 of Egypt H4714 that H3588 the people H5971 fled: H1272 and the heart H3824 of Pharaoh H6547 and of his servants H5650 was turned H2015 against H413 the people, H5971 and they said, H559 Why H4100 have we done H6213 this, H2063 that H3588 we have let H853 Israel H3478 go H7971 from serving H4480 H5647 us?
6 And he made ready H631 H853 his chariot, H7393 and took H3947 his people H5971 with H5973 him:
7 And he took H3947 six H8337 hundred H3967 chosen H977 chariots, H7393 and all H3605 the chariots H7393 of Egypt, H4714 and captains H7991 over H5921 every one H3605 of them.
8 And the LORD H3068 hardened H2388 H853 the heart H3820 of Pharaoh H6547 king H4428 of Egypt, H4714 and he pursued H7291 after H310 the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 went out H3318 with a high H7311 hand. H3027
9 But the Egyptians H4714 pursued H7291 after H310 them, all H3605 the horses H5483 and chariots H7393 of Pharaoh, H6547 and his horsemen, H6571 and his army, H2428 and overtook H5381 them encamping H2583 by H5921 the sea, H3220 beside H5921 Pi- H6367 hahiroth, before H6440 Baal- H1189 zephon.
10 And when Pharaoh H6547 drew nigh, H7126 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 lifted up H5375 H853 their eyes, H5869 and, behold, H2009 the Egyptians H4714 marched H5265 after H310 them ; and they were sore H3966 afraid: H3372 and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried out H6817 unto H413 the LORD. H3068
11 And they said H559 unto H413 Moses, H4872 Because H4480 H1097 there were no H369 graves H6913 in Egypt, H4714 hast thou taken us away H3947 to die H4191 in the wilderness H4057 ? wherefore H4100 hast thou dealt H6213 thus H2063 with us , to carry us forth H3318 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 ?
12 Is not H3808 this H2088 the word H1697 that H834 we did tell H1696 H413 thee in Egypt, H4714 saying, H559 Let us alone H2308 H4480 , that we may serve H5647 H853 the Egyptians H4714 ? For H3588 it had been better H2896 for us to serve H5647 H853 the Egyptians, H4714 than that we should die H4480 H4191 in the wilderness. H4057
13 And Moses H4872 said H559 unto H413 the people, H5971 Fear H3372 ye not, H408 stand still, H3320 and see H7200 H853 the salvation H3444 of the LORD, H3068 which H834 he will show H6213 to you today: H3117 for H3588 H853 the Egyptians H4714 whom H834 ye have seen H7200 today, H3117 ye shall see H7200 them again H5750 no H3808 more H3254 forever H5921 H5769 .
14 The LORD H3068 shall fight H3898 for you , and ye H859 shall hold your peace. H2790
15 And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses, H4872 Wherefore H4100 criest H6817 thou unto H413 me? speak H1696 unto H413 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 that they go forward: H5265
16 But lift thou up H7311 H859 H853 thy rod, H4294 and stretch out H5186 H853 thine hand H3027 over H5921 the sea, H3220 and divide H1234 it : and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 shall go H935 on dry H3004 ground through the midst H8432 of the sea. H3220
17 And I, H589 behold, H2009 I will harden H2388 H853 the hearts H3820 of the Egyptians, H4714 and they shall follow H935 H310 them : and I will get me honor H3513 upon Pharaoh, H6547 and upon all H3605 his host, H2428 upon his chariots, H7393 and upon his horsemen. H6571
18 And the Egyptians H4714 shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD, H3068 when I have gotten me honor H3513 upon Pharaoh, H6547 upon his chariots, H7393 and upon his horsemen. H6571
19 And the angel H4397 of God, H430 which went H1980 before H6440 the camp H4264 of Israel, H3478 removed H5265 and went H1980 behind H4480 H310 them ; and the pillar H5982 of the cloud H6051 went H5265 from before their face H4480 H6440 , and stood H5975 behind H4480 H310 them:
20 And it came H935 between H996 the camp H4264 of the Egyptians H4714 and the camp H4264 of Israel; H3478 and it was H1961 a cloud H6051 and darkness H2822 to them , but it gave light H215 H853 by night H3915 to these : so that the one H2088 came not near H7126 H3808 the other H2088 all H3605 the night. H3915
21 And Moses H4872 stretched out H5186 H853 his hand H3027 over H5921 the sea; H3220 and the LORD H3068 caused H853 the sea H3220 to go H1980 back by a strong H5794 east H6921 wind H7307 all H3605 that night, H3915 and made H7760 H853 the sea H3220 dry H2724 land , and the waters H4325 were divided. H1234
22 And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 went H935 into the midst H8432 of the sea H3220 upon the dry H3004 ground : and the waters H4325 were a wall H2346 unto them on their right hand H4480 H3225 , and on their left H4480 H8040 .
23 And the Egyptians H4714 pursued, H7291 and went in H935 after H310 them to H413 the midst H8432 of the sea, H3220 even all H3605 Pharaoh's H6547 horses, H5483 his chariots, H7393 and his horsemen. H6571
24 And it came to pass, H1961 that in the morning H1242 watch H821 the LORD H3068 looked H8259 unto H413 the host H4264 of the Egyptians H4714 through the pillar H5982 of fire H784 and of the cloud, H6051 and troubled H2000 H853 the host H4264 of the Egyptians, H4714
25 And took off H5493 H853 their chariot H4818 wheels, H212 that they drove H5090 them heavily: H3517 so that the Egyptians H4714 said, H559 Let us flee H5127 from the face H4480 H6440 of Israel; H3478 for H3588 the LORD H3068 fighteth H3898 for them against the Egyptians. H4714
26 And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Moses, H4872 Stretch out H5186 H853 thine hand H3027 over H5921 the sea, H3220 that the waters H4325 may come again H7725 upon H5921 the Egyptians, H4714 upon H5921 their chariots, H7393 and upon H5921 their horsemen. H6571
27 And Moses H4872 stretched forth H5186 H853 his hand H3027 over H5921 the sea, H3220 and the sea H3220 returned H7725 to his strength H386 when the morning H1242 appeared; H6437 and the Egyptians H4714 fled H5127 against H7125 it ; and the LORD H3068 overthrew H5287 H853 the Egyptians H4714 in the midst H8432 of the sea. H3220
28 And the waters H4325 returned, H7725 and covered H3680 H853 the chariots, H7393 and the horsemen, H6571 and all H3605 the host H2428 of Pharaoh H6547 that came H935 into the sea H3220 after H310 them ; there remained H7604 not H3808 so much as H5704 one H259 of them.
29 But the children H1121 of Israel H3478 walked H1980 upon dry H3004 land in the midst H8432 of the sea; H3220 and the waters H4325 were a wall H2346 unto them on their right hand H4480 H3225 , and on their left H4480 H8040 .
30 Thus the LORD H3068 saved H3467 H853 Israel H3478 that H1931 day H3117 out of the hand H4480 H3027 of the Egyptians; H4714 and Israel H3478 saw H7200 H853 the Egyptians H4714 dead H4191 upon H5921 the sea H3220 shore. H8193
31 And Israel H3478 saw H7200 H853 that great H1419 work H3027 which H834 the LORD H3068 did H6213 upon the Egyptians: H4714 and the people H5971 feared H3372 H853 the LORD, H3068 and believed H539 the LORD, H3068 and his servant H5650 Moses. H4872
