Pharaoh in Pursuit

1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר יְהֹוָ֖ה אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֥ה לֵּאמֹֽר׃

1 Καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων 1 Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων·
1 And the Lord spoke to Mōysēs, saying, 1 And the Lord spoke to Mōysēs, saying,

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baal-zephon: before it shall you encamp by the sea.

דַּבֵּר֮ אֶל־בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵל֒ וְיָשֻׁ֗בוּ וְיַחֲנוּ֙ לִפְנֵי֙ פִּ֣י הַחִירֹ֔ת בֵּ֥ין מִגְדֹּ֖ל וּבֵ֣ין הַיָּ֑ם לִפְנֵי֙ בַּ֣עַל צְפֹ֔ן נִכְחֹ֥ו תַחֲנ֖וּ עַל־הַיָּֽם׃


3 For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness has shut them in.

וְאָמַ֤ר פַּרְעֹה֙ לִבְנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל נְבֻכִ֥ים הֵ֖ם בָּאָ֑רֶץ סָגַ֥ר עֲלֵיהֶ֖ם הַמִּדְבָּֽר׃

3 καὶ ἐρεῖ Φαραὼ τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ πλανῶνται οὗτοι ἐν τῇ γῇ· συγκέκλεικεν γὰρ αὐτοὺς ἔρημος. 3 καὶ ἐρεῖ Φαραὼ τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ· οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ πλανῶνται οὗτοι ἐν τῇ γῇ· συγκέκλεικε γὰρ αὐτοὺς ἔρημος.
3 And Pharaō will say to his people, “These sons of Israēl are wandering in the land. For the wilderness has hemed in on them.” 3 And Pharaō will say to his people, “These sons of Israēl are wandering in the land. For the wilderness has hemed in on them.”

4 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, that he shall follow after them; and I will be honoured upon Pharaoh, and upon all his army; that the Egyptians may know that I am the LORD. And they did so.

וְחִזַּקְתִּ֣י אֶת־לֵב־פַּרְעֹה֮ וְרָדַ֣ף אַחֲרֵיהֶם֒ וְאִכָּבְדָ֤ה בְּפַרְעֹה֙ וּבְכָל־חֵילֹ֔ו וְיָדְע֥וּ מִצְרַ֖יִם כִּֽי־אֲנִ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ־כֵֽן׃

4 ἐγὼ δὲ σκληρυνῶ τὴν καρδίαν Φαραώ,
καὶ καταδιώξεται ὀπίσω αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐνδοξασθήσομαι ἐν Φαραὼ καὶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ στρατιᾷ αὐτοῦ,
καὶ γνώσονται πάντες οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος.
καὶ ἐποίησαν οὕτως.
4 ἐγὼ δὲ σκληρυνῶ τὴν καρδίαν Φαραώ,
καὶ καταδιώξεται ὀπίσω αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐνδοξασθήσομαι ἐν Φαραὼ καὶ ἐν πᾶσι τῇ στρατιᾷ αὐτοῦ,
καὶ γνώσονται πάντες οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι Κύριος.
καὶ ἐποίησαν οὕτως.
4 Then I will harden Pharaō’s heart, and he will pursue after them. And I will be glorified in Pharaō and in all his army, and all the Aigyptians shall know that I am the Lord. And they did so. 4 Then I will harden Pharaō’s heart, and he will pursue after them. And I will be glorified in Pharaō and in all his army, and all the Aigyptians shall know that I am the Lord. And they did so.

5 And it was told the king of Egypt that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?

וַיֻּגַּד֙ לְמֶ֣לֶךְ מִצְרַ֔יִם כִּ֥י בָרַ֖ח הָעָ֑ם וַ֠יֵּהָפֵךְ לְבַ֨ב פַּרְעֹ֤ה וַעֲבָדָיו֙ אֶל־הָעָ֔ם וַיֹּֽאמרוּ֙ מַה־זֹּ֣את עָשִׂ֔ינוּ כִּֽי־שִׁלַּ֥חְנוּ אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מֵעָבְדֵֽנוּ׃

5 καὶ ἀνηγγέλη τῷ βασιλεῖ τῶν Αἰγυπτίων ὅτι πέφευγεν λαός· καὶ μετεστράφη καρδία Φαραὼ καὶ τῶν θεραπόντων αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν,
καὶ εἶπαν τί τοῦτο ἐποιήσαμεν τοῦ ἐξαποστεῖλαι τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ τοῦ μὴ δουλεύειν ἡμῖν;
5 καὶ ἀνηγγέλη τῷ βασιλεῖ τῶν Αἰγυπτίων ὅτι πέφευγεν λαός· καὶ μετεστράφη καρδία Φαραὼ καὶ τῶν θεραπόντων αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν,
καὶ εἶπαν· τί τοῦτο ἐποιήσαμεν τοῦ ἐξαποστεῖλαι τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ,
τοῦ μὴ δουλεύειν ἡμῖν;
5 And it was reported to the king of the Aigyptians that the people had escaped. And the heart of Pharaō and his attendants was turned against the people, and they said, “What is this we have done, sending out the sons of Israēl so they are not subject to us?” 5 And it was reported to the king of the Aigyptians that the people had escaped. And the heart of Pharaō and his attendants was turned against the people, and they said, “What is this we have done, sending out the sons of Israēl so they are not subject to us?”

6 And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:

וַיֶּאְסֹ֖ר אֶת־רִכְבֹּ֑ו וְאֶת־עַמֹּ֖ו לָקַ֥ח עִמֹּֽו׃

6 ἔζευξεν οὖν Φαραὼ τὰ ἅρματα αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ συναπήγαγεν μεθ’ ἑαυτοῦ 6 ἔζευξεν οὖν Φαραὼ τὰ ἅρματα αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ συναπήγαγε μεθ’ ἑαυτοῦ
6 Then Pharaō hitched up his chariots and led away all his people together with him, 6 Then Pharaō hitched up his chariots and led away all his people together with him,

7 And he took 600 chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over everyone of them.

וַיִּקַּ֗ח שֵׁשׁ־מֵאֹ֥ות רֶ֙כֶב֙ בָּח֔וּר וְכֹ֖ל רֶ֣כֶב מִצְרָ֑יִם וְשָׁלִשִׁ֖ם עַל־כֻּלֹּֽו׃

7 and after he took 600 choice chariots and all the cavalry of the Aigyptians and the third-ranked leaders over all of them. 7 and after he took 600 choice chariots and all the cavalry of the Aigyptians and the third-ranked leaders over all of them.

8 And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel: and the children of Israel went out with a high hand.

וַיְחַזֵּ֣ק יְהֹוָ֗ה אֶת־לֵ֤ב פַּרְעֹה֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ מִצְרַ֔יִם וַיִּרְדֹּ֕ף אַחֲרֵ֖י בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וּבְנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל יֹצְאִ֖ים בְּיָ֥ד רָמָֽה׃


9 But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.

וַיִּרְדְּפ֨וּ מִצְרַ֜יִם אַחֲרֵיהֶ֗ם.. וַיַּשִּׂ֤יגוּ אֹותָם֙ חֹנִ֣ים עַל־הַיָּ֔ם כָּל־סוּס֙ רֶ֣כֶב פַּרְעֹ֔ה וּפָרָשָׁ֖יו וְחֵילֹ֑ו עַל־פִּי֙ הַֽחִירֹ֔ת לִפְנֵ֖י בַּ֥עַל צְפֹֽן׃


10 And when Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were sore afraid: and the children of Israel cried out unto the LORD.

וּפַרְעֹ֖ה הִקְרִ֑יב וַיִּשְׂאוּ֩ בְנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֨ל אֶת־עֵינֵיהֶ֜ם וְהִנֵּ֥ה מִצְרַ֣יִם ׀ נֹסֵ֣עַ אַחֲרֵיהֶ֗ם וַיִּֽירְאוּ֙ מְאֹ֔ד וַיִּצְעֲק֥וּ בְנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל אֶל־יְהוָֽה׃

10 καὶ Φαραὼ προσῆγεν· καὶ ἀναβλέψαντες οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς ὁρῶσιν,
καὶ οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι ἐστρατοπέδευσαν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν,
καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν σφόδρα· ἀνεβόησαν δὲ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς κύριον.

καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν σφόδρα· ἀνεβόησαν δὲ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς Κύριον,
10 And Pharaō was approaching. And when the sons of Israēl looked up, they saw with their eyes, and the Aigyptians encamped behind them, and they were very afraid. Then the sons of Israēl shouted out to the Lord. 10 And Pharaō was approaching. And when the sons of Israēl looked up, they saw with their eyes, and the Aigyptians encamped behind them, and they were very afraid. Then the sons of Israēl shouted out to the Lord.

11 And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? therefore have you dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt?

וַיֹּאמְרוּ֮ אֶל־מֹשֶׁה֒ הַֽמִבְּלִ֤י אֵין־קְבָרִים֙ בְּמִצְרַ֔יִם לְקַחְתָּ֖נוּ לָמ֣וּת בַּמִּדְבָּ֑ר מַה־זֹּאת֙ עָשִׂ֣יתָ לָּ֔נוּ לְהֹוצִיאָ֖נוּ מִמִּצְרָֽיִם׃

11 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Μωυσῆν παρὰ τὸ μὴ ὑπάρχειν μνήματα ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ ἐξήγαγες ἡμᾶς θανατῶσαι ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ;
τί τοῦτο ἐποίησας ἡμῖν ἐξαγαγὼν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου;
11 καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς Μωυσῆν· παρὰ τὸ μὴ ὑπάρχειν μνήματα ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ ἐξήγαγες ἡμᾶς θανατῶσαι ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ;
τί τοῦτο ἐποίησας ἡμῖν ἐξαγαγὼν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου;
11 And they said to Mōysēs, “Did you bring us out to put us to death in this wilderness because no graves existed in Aigypt’s land? What is this you have done to us, bringing us out of Aigypt? 11 And they said to Mōysēs, “Did you bring us out to put us to death in this wilderness because no graves existed in Aigypt’s land? What is this you have done to us, bringing us out of Aigypt?

12 Is not this the word that we did tell you in Egypt, saying, Let’s alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.

הֲלֹא־זֶ֣ה הַדָּבָ֗ר אֲשֶׁר֩ דִּבַּ֨רְנוּ אֵלֶ֤יךָ בְמִצְרַ֙יִם֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר חֲדַ֥ל מִמֶּ֖נּוּ וְנַֽעַבְדָ֣ה אֶת־מִצְרָ֑יִם כִּ֣י טֹ֥וב לָ֙נוּ֙ עֲבֹ֣ד אֶת־מִצְרַ֔יִם מִמֻּתֵ֖נוּ בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃

12 οὐ τοῦτο ἦν τὸ ῥῆμα,
ἐλαλήσαμεν πρὸς σὲ ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ λέγοντες πάρες ἡμᾶς,
ὅπως δουλεύσωμεν τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις;
κρεῖσσον γὰρ ἡμᾶς δουλεύειν τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις ἀποθανεῖν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ταύτῃ.
12 οὐ τοῦτο ἦν τὸ ῥῆμα,
ὃν ἐλαλήσαμεν πρὸς σὲ ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ,
λέγοντες· πάρες ἡμᾶς,
ὅπως δουλεύσωμεν τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις;
κρεῖσσον γὰρ ἡμᾶς δουλεύειν τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις ἀποθανεῖν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ταύτῃ.
12 Wasn’t this the thing that we told you in Aigypt, saying, ‛Leave us alone in order that we might be enslaved to the Aigyptians?’ For it was better for us to be enslaved to the Aigyptians than to die in this wilderness.” 12 Wasn’t this the thing that we told you in Aigypt, saying, ‛Leave us alone in order that we might be enslaved to the Aigyptians?’ For it was better for us to be enslaved to the Aigyptians than to die in this wilderness.”

The Sea Is Divided

13 And Moses said unto the people, Don’t fear, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will show to you today: for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall see them again no more forever.

וַיֹּ֨אמֶר מֹשֶׁ֣ה אֶל־הָעָם֮ אַל־תִּירָאוּ֒ הִֽתְיַצְב֗וּ וּרְאוּ֙ אֶת־יְשׁוּעַ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה אֲשֶׁר־יַעֲשֶׂ֥ה לָכֶ֖ם הַיֹּ֑ום כִּ֗י אֲשֶׁ֨ר רְאִיתֶ֤ם אֶת־מִצְרַ֙יִם֙ הַיֹּ֔ום לֹ֥א תֹסִ֛יפוּ לִרְאֹתָ֥ם עֹ֖וד עַד־עֹולָֽם׃

13 εἶπεν δὲ Μωυσῆς πρὸς τὸν λαόν θαρσεῖτε· στῆτε καὶ ὁρᾶτε τὴν σωτηρίαν τὴν παρὰ τοῦ θεοῦ,
ἣν ποιήσει ἡμῖν σήμερον· ὃν τρόπον γὰρ ἑωράκατε τοὺς Αἰγυπτίους σήμερον,
οὐ προσθήσεσθε ἔτι ἰδεῖν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα χρόνον·
13 εἶπε δὲ Μωυσῆς πρὸς τὸν λαόν· θαρσεῖτε,
στῆτε καὶ ὁρᾶτε τὴν σωτηρίαν τὴν παρὰ τοῦ Κυρίου,
ἣν ποιήσει ἡμῖν σήμερον· ὃν τρόπον γὰρ ἑωράκατε τοὺς Αἰγυπτίους σήμερον,
οὐ προσθήσεσθε ἔτι ἰδεῖν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα χρόνον·
13 But Mōysēs said to the people, “Be encouraged! Stand, and see the deliverance from God that he will do for you today. For as you have seen the Aigyptians today, you shall not ever again see them time eternal. 13 But Mōysēs said to the people, “Be encouraged! Stand, and see the deliverance from God that he will do for you today. For as you have seen the Aigyptians today, you shall not ever again see them time eternal.

14 The LORD shall fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.

יְהוָ֖ה יִלָּחֵ֣ם לָכֶ֑ם וְאַתֶּ֖ם תַּחֲרִישֽׁוּן׃

14 κύριος πολεμήσει περὶ ὑμῶν,
καὶ ὑμεῖς σιγήσετε.
14 Κύριος πολεμήσει περὶ ὑμῶν,
καὶ ὑμεῖς σιγήσετε.
14 The Lord will fight for you, and you will be silent.” 14 The Lord will fight for you, and you will be silent.”

15 And the LORD said unto Moses, Why cry you unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֔ה מַה־תִּצְעַ֖ק אֵלָ֑י דַּבֵּ֥ר אֶל־בְּנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל וְיִסָּֽעוּ׃

15 εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν τί βοᾷς πρός με;
λάλησον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ,
καὶ ἀναζευξάτωσαν·
15 Εἶπε δὲ Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· τί βοᾷς πρός με;
λάλησον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ,
καὶ ἀναζευξάτωσαν·
15 Then the Lord said to Mōysēs, “Why are you yelling to me? Speak to the sons of Israēl, and let them break camp. 15 Then the Lord said to Mōysēs, “Why are you yelling to me? Speak to the sons of Israēl, and let them break camp.

16 But lift you 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.

וְאַתָּ֞ה הָרֵ֣ם אֶֽת־מַטְּךָ֗ וּנְטֵ֧ה אֶת־יָדְךָ֛ עַל־הַיָּ֖ם וּבְקָעֵ֑הוּ וְיָבֹ֧אוּ בְנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל בְּתֹ֥וךְ הַיָּ֖ם בַּיַּבָּשָֽׁה׃

16 καὶ σὺ ἔπαρον τῇ ῥάβδῳ σου καὶ ἔκτεινον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ ῥῆξον αὐτήν,
καὶ εἰσελθάτωσαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ εἰς μέσον τῆς θαλάσσης κατὰ τὸ ξηρόν.
16 καὶ σὺ ἔπαρον τῇ ῥάβδῳ σου καὶ ἔκτεινον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ ῥῆξον αὐτήν,

16 And you, raise your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea, and split it apart, and let the sons of Israēl enter into the midst of the sea along the dry. 16 And you, raise your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea, and split it apart, and let the sons of Israēl enter into the midst of the sea along the dry.

17 And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his army, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.

וַאֲנִ֗י הִנְנִ֤י מְחַזֵּק֙ אֶת־לֵ֣ב מִצְרַ֔יִם וְיָבֹ֖אוּ אַחֲרֵיהֶ֑ם וְאִכָּבְדָ֤ה בְּפַרְעֹה֙ וּבְכָל־חֵילֹ֔ו בְּרִכְבֹּ֖ו וּבְפָרָשָֽׁיו׃

17 καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ σκληρυνῶ τὴν καρδίαν Φαραὼ καὶ τῶν Αἰγυπτίων πάντων,
καὶ εἰσελεύσονται ὀπίσω αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐνδοξασθήσομαι ἐν Φαραὼ καὶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ στρατιᾷ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἅρμασιν καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἵπποις αὐτοῦ.

17 And Look! I will harden the heart of Pharaō and all the Aigyptians, and they will enter in after them. And I will be glorified in Pharaō and in all his army and in his chariots and in his horses. 17 And Look! I will harden the heart of Pharaō and all the Aigyptians, and they will enter in after them. And I will be glorified in Pharaō and in all his army and in his chariots and in his horses.

18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.

וְיָדְע֥וּ מִצְרַ֖יִם כִּי־אֲנִ֣י יְהוָ֑ה בְּהִכָּבְדִ֣י בְּפַרְעֹ֔ה בְּרִכְבֹּ֖ו וּבְפָרָשָֽׁיו׃

18 καὶ γνώσονται πάντες οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι κύριος ἐνδοξαζομένου μου ἐν Φαραὼ καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἅρμασιν καὶ ἵπποις αὐτοῦ. 18 καὶ γνώσονται πάντες οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι Κύριος,
ἐνδοξαζομένου μου ἐν Φαραὼ καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἅρμασι καὶ ἵπποις αὐτοῦ.
18 And all the Aigyptians shall know that I am the Lord, as I am being glorified in Pharaō and in his chariots and his horses.” 18 And all the Aigyptians shall know that I am the Lord, as I am being glorified in Pharaō and in his chariots and his horses.”

19 And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:

וַיִּסַּ֞ע מַלְאַ֣ךְ הָאֱלֹהִ֗ים הַהֹלֵךְ֙ לִפְנֵי֙ מַחֲנֵ֣ה יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַיֵּ֖לֶךְ מֵאַחֲרֵיהֶ֑ם וַיִּסַּ֞ע עַמּ֤וּד הֶֽעָנָן֙ מִפְּנֵיהֶ֔ם וַיַּֽעֲמֹ֖ד מֵאַחֲרֵיהֶֽם׃


20 And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one didn’t come near the other all the night.

וַיָּבֹ֞א בֵּ֣ין ׀ מַחֲנֵ֣ה מִצְרַ֗יִם וּבֵין֙ מַחֲנֵ֣ה יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַיְהִ֤י הֶֽעָנָן֙ וְהַחֹ֔שֶׁךְ וַיָּ֖אֶר אֶת־הַלָּ֑יְלָה וְלֹא־קָרַ֥ב זֶ֛ה אֶל־זֶ֖ה כָּל־הַלָּֽיְלָה׃

καὶ διῆλθεν νύξ,
καὶ οὐ συνέμιξαν ἀλλήλοις ὅλην τὴν νύκτα·

καὶ οὐ συνέμιξαν ἀλλήλοις ὅλην τὴν νύκτα·
20 And it entered between the camp of the Aigyptians and between the camp of Israēl. And there was darkness and gloom, and the night elapsed, and they didn’t mix together with one another during the whole night. 20 And it entered between the camp of the Aigyptians and between the camp of Israēl. And there was darkness and gloom, and the night elapsed, and they didn’t mix together with one another during the whole night.

21 And 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 dry land, and the waters were divided.

וַיֵּ֨ט מֹשֶׁ֣ה אֶת־יָדֹו֮ עַל־הַיָּם֒ וַיֹּ֣ולֶךְ יְהוָ֣ה ׀ אֶת־הַ֠יָּם בְּר֨וּחַ קָדִ֤ים עַזָּה֙ כָּל־הַלַּ֔יְלָה וַיָּ֥שֶׂם אֶת־הַיָּ֖ם לֶחָרָבָ֑ה וַיִּבָּקְע֖וּ הַמָּֽיִם׃

21 ἐξέτεινεν δὲ Μωυσῆς τὴν χεῖρα ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν,
καὶ ὑπήγαγεν κύριος τὴν θάλασσαν ἐν ἀνέμῳ νότῳ βιαίῳ ὅλην τὴν νύκτα καὶ ἐποίησεν τὴν θάλασσαν ξηράν,
καὶ ἐσχίσθη τὸ ὕδωρ.

καὶ ἐσχίσθη τὸ ὕδωρ.
21 But Mōysēs stretched out his hand over the sea, and the Lord pushed back the sea by a violent south wind during the whole night, and he made the sea dry, and the water was divided. 21 But Mōysēs stretched out his hand over the sea, and the Lord pushed back the sea by a violent south wind during the whole night, and he made the sea dry, and the water was divided.

22 And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

22 And the sons of Israēl entered into the midst of the sea on the dry land, and the water became a wall for them on the right and a wall on the left. 22 And the sons of Israēl entered into the midst of the sea on the dry land, and the water became a wall for them on the right and a wall on the left.

23 And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.

וַיִּרְדְּפ֤וּ מִצְרַ֙יִם֙ וַיָּבֹ֣אוּ אַחֲרֵיהֶ֔ם כֹּ֚ל ס֣וּס פַּרְעֹ֔ה רִכְבֹּ֖ו וּפָרָשָׁ֑יו אֶל־תֹּ֖וךְ הַיָּֽם׃

23 κατεδίωξαν δὲ οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι καὶ εἰσῆλθον ὀπίσω αὐτῶν,
πᾶσα ἵππος Φαραὼ καὶ τὰ ἅρματα καὶ οἱ ἀναβάται,

23 Then the Aigyptians pursued, and all the cavalry of Pharaō and the chariots and the riders went in after them into the midst of the sea. 23 Then the Aigyptians pursued, and all the cavalry of Pharaō and the chariots and the riders went in after them into the midst of the sea.

24 And it came to pass, that in the morning watch the LORD looked unto the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the army of the Egyptians,

24 ἐγενήθη δὲ ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ τῇ ἑωθινῇ καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν κύριος ἐπὶ τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν Αἰγυπτίων ἐν στύλῳ πυρὸς καὶ νεφέλης καὶ συνετάραξεν τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν Αἰγυπτίων 24 ἐγενήθη δὲ ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ τῇ ἑωθινῇ καὶ ἐπέβλεψε Κύριος ἐπὶ τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν Αἰγυπτίων ἐν στύλῳ πυρὸς καὶ νεφέλης καὶ συνετάραξε τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν Αἰγυπτίων
24 And it happened in the early morning watch that the Lord looked upon the camp of the Aigyptians in the pillar of fire and cloud, and he confounded the camp of the Aigyptians. 24 And it happened in the early morning watch that the Lord looked upon the camp of the Aigyptians in the pillar of fire and cloud, and he confounded the camp of the Aigyptians.

25 And took off their chariot wheels, that they drove them heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let’s flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fights for them against the Egyptians.

וַיָּ֗סַר אֵ֚ת אֹפַ֣ן מַרְכְּבֹתָ֔יו וַֽיְנַהֲגֵ֖הוּ בִּכְבֵדֻ֑ת וַיֹּ֣אמֶר מִצְרַ֗יִם אָנ֙וּסָה֙ מִפְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל כִּ֣י יְהוָ֔ה נִלְחָ֥ם לָהֶ֖ם בְּמִצְרָֽיִם ׃

25 καὶ συνέδησεν τοὺς ἄξονας τῶν ἁρμάτων αὐτῶν καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς μετὰ βίας.
καὶ εἶπαν οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι φύγωμεν ἀπὸ προσώπου Ἰσραήλ· γὰρ κύριος πολεμεῖ περὶ αὐτῶν τοὺς Αἰγυπτίους.
25 καὶ συνέδησε τοὺς ἄξονας τῶν ἁρμάτων αὐτῶν καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς μετὰ βίας.
καὶ εἶπαν οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι· φύγωμεν ἀπὸ προσώπου Ἰσραήλ,
γὰρ Κύριος πολεμεῖ περὶ αὐτῶν τοὺς Αἰγυπτίους.
25 And he bound together the axles of their chariots and led them with violence. And the Aigyptians said, “Let us flee from before Israēl! For the Lord fights the Aigyptians for them.” 25 And he bound together the axles of their chariots and led them with violence. And the Aigyptians said, “Let us flee from before Israēl! For the Lord fights the Aigyptians for them.”

26 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֔ה נְטֵ֥ה אֶת־יָדְךָ֖ עַל־הַיָּ֑ם וְיָשֻׁ֤בוּ הַמַּ֙יִם֙ עַל־מִצְרַ֔יִם עַל־רִכְבֹּ֖ו וְעַל־פָּרָשָֽׁיו׃

26 εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἔκτεινον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν,
καὶ ἀποκαταστήτω τὸ ὕδωρ καὶ ἐπικαλυψάτω τοὺς Αἰγυπτίους,
ἐπί τε τὰ ἅρματα καὶ τοὺς ἀναβάτας.
26 εἶπε δὲ Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· ἔκτεινον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν,
καὶ ἀποκαταστήτω τὸ ὕδωρ καὶ ἐπικαλυψάτω τοὺς Αἰγυπτίους,
ἐπί τε τὰ ἅρματα καὶ τοὺς ἀναβάτας.
26 Then the Lord said to Mōysēs, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, and let the water return and cover up the Aigyptians, both the chariots and the riders.” 26 Then the Lord said to Mōysēs, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, and let the water return and cover up the Aigyptians, both the chariots and the riders.”

27 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

וַיֵּט֩ מֹשֶׁ֨ה אֶת־יָדֹ֜ו עַל־הַיָּ֗ם. וַיָּ֨שָׁב הַיָּ֜ם לִפְנֹ֥ות בֹּ֙קֶר֙ לְאֵ֣יתָנֹ֔ו וּמִצְרַ֖יִם נָסִ֣ים לִקְרָאתֹ֑ו וַיְנַעֵ֧ר יְהוָ֛ה אֶת־מִצְרַ֖יִם בְּתֹ֥וךְ הַיָּֽם׃

27 ἐξέτεινεν δὲ Μωυσῆς τὴν χεῖρα ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν,
καὶ ἀπεκατέστη τὸ ὕδωρ πρὸς ἡμέραν ἐπὶ χώρας· οἱ δὲ Αἰγύπτιοι ἔφυγον ὑπὸ τὸ ὕδωρ,
καὶ ἐξετίναξεν κύριος τοὺς Αἰγυπτίους μέσον τῆς θαλάσσης.
27 ἐξέτεινε δὲ Μωυσῆς τὴν χεῖρα ἐπὶ τὴν θάλασσαν,
καὶ ἀπεκατέστη τὸ ὕδωρ πρὸς ἡμέραν ἐπὶ χώρας· οἱ δὲ Αἰγύπτιοι ἔφυγον ὑπὸ τὸ ὕδωρ,
καὶ ἐξετίναξε Κύριος τοὺς Αἰγυπτίους μέσον τῆς θαλάσσης.
27 So Mōysēs stretched out the hand over the sea, and the water returned to its place toward daybreak. Now the Aigyptians escaped under the water, and the Lord shook out the Aigyptians in the middle of the sea. 27 So Mōysēs stretched out the hand over the sea, and the water returned to its place toward daybreak. Now the Aigyptians escaped under the water, and the Lord shook out the Aigyptians in the middle of the sea.

28 And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the army of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.

וַיָּשֻׁ֣בוּ הַמַּ֗יִם וַיְכַסּ֤וּ אֶת־הָרֶ֙כֶב֙ וְאֶת־הַפָּ֣רָשִׁ֔ים לְכֹל֙ חֵ֣יל פַּרְעֹ֔ה הַבָּאִ֥ים אַחֲרֵיהֶ֖ם בַּיָּ֑ם לֹֽא־נִשְׁאַ֥ר בָּהֶ֖ם עַד־אֶחָֽד׃


29 But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

וּבְנֵ֧י יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל הָלְכ֥וּ בַיַּבָּשָׁ֖ה בְּתֹ֣וךְ הַיָּ֑ם וְהַמַּ֤יִם לָהֶם֙ חֹמָ֔ה מִֽימִינָ֖ם וּמִשְּׂמֹאלָֽם ׃

29 οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπορεύθησαν διὰ ξηρᾶς ἐν μέσῳ τῆς θαλάσσης,
τὸ δὲ ὕδωρ αὐτοῖς τεῖχος ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ τεῖχος ἐξ εὐωνύμων.
29 οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπορεύθησαν διὰ ξηρᾶς ἐν μέσῳ τῆς θαλάσσης,
τὸ δὲ ὕδωρ αὐτῆς τεῖχος ἐκ δεξιῶν,
καὶ τεῖχος ἐξ εὐωνύμων.
29 But the sons of Israēl went through dry ground in the midst of the sea, and the water was for them a wall on the right and a wall on the left. 29 But the sons of Israēl went through dry ground in the midst of the sea, and the water was for them a wall on the right and a wall on the left.

30 Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore.

וַיֹּ֨ושַׁע יְהוָ֜ה בַּיֹּ֥ום הַה֛וּא אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מִיַּ֣ד מִצְרָ֑יִם וַיַּ֤רְא יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ אֶת־מִצְרַ֔יִם מֵ֖ת עַל־שְׂפַ֥ת הַיָּֽם׃


31 And Israel saw that great work which the LORD did upon the Egyptians: and the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD, and his servant Moses.

וַיַּ֨רְא יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל אֶת־הַיָּ֣ד הַגְּדֹלָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר עָשָׂ֤ה יְהוָה֙ בְּמִצְרַ֔יִם וַיִּֽירְא֥וּ הָעָ֖ם אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה וַיַּֽאֲמִ֙ינוּ֙ בַּֽיהוָ֔ה וּבְמֹשֶׁ֖ה עַבְדֹּֽו׃

31 εἶδεν δὲ Ἰσραὴλ τὴν χεῖρα τὴν μεγάλην,
ἐποίησεν κύριος τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις· ἐφοβήθη δὲ λαὸς τὸν κύριον καὶ ἐπίστευσαν τῷ θεῷ καὶ Μωυσῇ τῷ θεράποντι αὐτοῦ.
31 εἶδε δὲ Ἰσραὴλ τὴν χεῖρα τὴν μεγάλην,
ἐποίησε Κύριος τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις· ἐφοβήθη δὲ λαὸς τὸν Κύριον καὶ ἐπίστευσαν τῷ Θεῷ καὶ Μωυσῇ τῷ θεράποντι αὐτοῦ.
31 So Israēl saw the great hand, which things the Lord had done to the Aigyptians. And the people feared the Lord and trusted God and Mōysēs, his attendant. 31 So Israēl saw the great hand, which things the Lord had done to the Aigyptians.
