OET (OET-RV) So Mosheh stretched his arm out over the sea, and as the day broke, the sea began to return to its normal place. The Egyptians turned and fled before its impact but Yahweh shook the Egyptians off their horses and chariots in the middle of the sea.

See note in the introduction to chapter 8 regarding the hand and staff.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
לִפְנ֥וֹת בֹּ֨קֶר֙
at,appeared dawn
Here, before the face of means “before the occurrence of.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: “before it was morning”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וַיְנַעֵ֧ר יְהוָ֛ה אֶת־מִצְרַ֖יִם בְּת֥וֹךְ הַיָּֽם
and,swept YHWH DOM from_Miʦrayim/(Miʦrayim/(Egypt))s in_the=middle the=sea
Here, Yahweh is pictured as acting toward the Egyptians as if they were dirt or dust on his clothing that he shakes to be rid of them. If your readers would not understand what this image means in this context, you could use an equivalent metaphor from your culture. Alternatively, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and Yahweh threw the Egyptians back into the middle of the sea”
14:15-31 The escape through the Red Sea was the climactic moment of rescue.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
