Mosheh’s song

Exo 15:1–19

15:1 Mosheh’s song

15Then Mosheh and the Israelis sang this song to Yahweh:[ref]

“I will sing to Yahweh because he’s been so successful—

he’s thrown both the horses and their riders into the sea.

2I will sing about Yahweh, my source of strength,[ref]

and the one who saves me.

I will praise him because he’s my God—

he’s my father’s God and I will honour him.

3Yahweh is a warrior.

Yahweh is his name.


4He threw Far’oh’s chariots and his army into the sea.

His hand-picked officers have been sunk in the sea.


5The deep waters cover them.

They descended into the depths like a stone.

6Yahweh’s right arm is so powerful.

Yahweh’s right arm shattered our enemy.

7You toss away your adversaries with your great power.

Your burning anger consumes them like straw in a fire.

8It was your breath that made the waters pile up.

They stood up like a heap.

The deep water seemed like it was solid.

9Our enemies thought that they could chase after us and overtake us.

They had planned to satisfy themselves by sharing out the plunder.

They were ready to use their swords and swing their arms to destroy us.

10But you blew with your breath.

The sea covered them.

They sank like lead in that terrible surge.


11Which other God is like you, Yahweh?

Who else is so powerful and yet sinless,

receiving praises for doing miracles?

12You stretched out your powerful arm.

The earth swallowed them up.

13You are leading the people you bought back,

because you committed yourself to love them.

You used your strength to lead them to your sinless home.

14Other countries have heard, and they tremble.

Anguish has struck the inhabitants of Filistia.

15The chiefs of Edom have panicked.

Trembling has seized the leaders of Moab.

The inhabitants of Kanaan have melted away.

16Terror and dread have fallen on them.

After seeing your great power, they’ve stayed as still as stone

until your people have all marched past, Yahweh.

Until the people you bought have all gone past them.

17Bring them into the land

and establish them on the mountain of your inheritance.

The place you’ve chosen to become your home, Yahweh

a sanctuary built by your hands, master.

18Yahweh will reign as king forever and ever.

19Far’oh’s horse went into the sea, along with his chariots and horsemen,[fn]

and Yahweh brought the water back over them,

after the Israelis had walked through on dry ground in the middle of the sea.”


15:19 Some interpreters include v19 as part of Mosheh’s song (as we do, although it does seem less poetic in structure), while others don’t. (There’s no speech marks in the ancient Hebrew texts.)
