other. When now Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, the LORD
carried away the sea with a strong east wind that blew all night, and
made the sea dry land and the water divided itself. And the children of
Israel went in thorow the middest of the sea upon the dry ground. And
the water was a wall unto them, both on their right hand and on their
left hand. And the Egyptians followed and went in after them to the
middest of the sea, with all Pharao's horses, and his chariots and his
horsemen. And in the morning watch, the LORD looked unto the host of
the Egyptians out of the fiery and cloudy pillar, and troubled their
host and smote off their chariot wheels and cast them down to the
ground. Then said the Egyptians: Let us flee from Israel, for the LORD
fighteth for them against us. Then said the LORD unto Moses: stretch
out thine hand over the sea, that the water may come again upon the
Egyptians upon their chariots and horsemen. Then stretched forth Moses
his hand over the sea, and it came again to his course early in the
morning, and the Egyptians fled against it. Thus the LORD overthrew the
Egyptians in the middest of the sea, and the water returned and covered
the chariots and the horsemen: so that of all the host of Pharao that
came into the sea after them, there remained not one. But the children
of Israel went upon dry land in the middest of the sea, and the water
was a wall unto them: both on the right hand of them and also on the
left. Thus the LORD delivered Israel the self same day out of the hand
of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea side.
And when Israel saw that mighty hand which the LORD had shewed upon the
Egyptians, they feared the LORD: and believed both the LORD and also
his servant Moses.
