28And it came to pass on the day when Jehovah spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt,

30And Moses said before Jehovah, Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips, and how will Pharaoh hearken unto me?
1And Jehovah said to Moses, See, I have made thee God to Pharaoh; and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.

6And Moses and Aaron did as Jehovah had commanded them: so did they.
7And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron was eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
8And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
9When Pharaoh shall speak to you, saying, Do a miracle for yourselves,--then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy staff and cast it before Pharaoh--it will become a serpent.
10And Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and did so, as Jehovah had commanded; and Aaron cast down his staff before Pharaoh, and before his bondmen, and it became a serpent.
11And Pharaoh also called the sages and the sorcerers; and they too, the scribes of Egypt, did so with their enchantments:
12they cast down every man his staff, and they became serpents; but Aaron's staff swallowed up their staves.
13And Pharaoh's heart was stubborn, and he hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had said.
14And Jehovah said to Moses, Pharaoh's heart is hardened: he refuseth to let the people go.
15Go unto Pharaoh in the morning--behold, he will go out unto the water--and take thy stand by the bank of the river in front of him; and take in thy hand the staff that was turned into a serpent.
16And say unto him, Jehovah the God of the Hebrews has sent me to thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness; but behold, hitherto thou hast not hearkened.
17Thus saith Jehovah: In this shalt thou know that I am Jehovah--behold, I will smite with the staff that is in my hand upon the water which is in the river, and it shall be turned into blood.
18And the fish that is in the river shall die; and the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall loathe to drink the water out of the river.
19And Jehovah said to Moses, Say unto Aaron, Take thy staff, and stretch out thy hand upon the waters of the Egyptians--upon their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds, and upon all their reservoirs of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.
20And Moses and Aaron did so, as Jehovah had commanded; and he lifted up the staff, and smote the waters that were in the river before the eyes of Pharaoh, and before the eyes of his bondmen; and all the waters that were in the river were turned into blood.
21And the fish that was in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink the water of the river; and the blood was throughout the land of Egypt.
22And the scribes of Egypt did so with their sorceries; and Pharaoh's heart was stubborn, neither did he hearken to them, as Jehovah had said.
23And Pharaoh turned and went into his house, and took not this to heart either.
24And all the Egyptians dug round about the river for water to drink; for they could not drink of the water of the river.
25And seven days were fulfilled, after Jehovah had smitten the river.
1And Jehovah said to Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith Jehovah: Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs.
3And the river shall swarm with frogs, and they shall go up and come into thy house, and into thy bedroom, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy bondmen, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneading-troughs.
4And the frogs shall come up both upon thee and upon thy people, and upon all thy bondmen.
5And Jehovah said to Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy hand with thy staff over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.
6And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7And the scribes did so with their sorceries, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.
8And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and said, Intreat Jehovah, that he may take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Jehovah.
9And Moses said to Pharaoh, Glory over me, for what time shall I intreat for thee, and for thy bondmen, and for thy people, to cut off the frogs from thee and from thy houses; so that they shall remain in the river only?
10And he said, For to-morrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word; that thou mayest know that there is none like Jehovah our God.
11And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy bondmen, and from thy people: they shall remain in the river only.
12And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses cried to Jehovah because of the frogs that he had brought against Pharaoh.
13And Jehovah did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14And they gathered them in heaps; and the land stank.
15And Pharaoh saw that there was respite; and he hardened his heart, and hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had said.
16And Jehovah said to Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy staff, and smite the dust of the earth, and it shall become gnats throughout the land of Egypt.
17And they did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff, and smote the dust of the earth, and there arose gnats on man and on beast: all the dust of the land became gnats throughout the land of Egypt.
18And the scribes did so with their sorceries, to bring forth gnats; but they could not. And the gnats were on man and on beast.
19Then the scribes said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God! But Pharaoh's heart was stubborn, and he hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had said.
20And Jehovah said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh--behold, he will go out to the water--and say to him, Thus saith Jehovah, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
21For, if thou do not let my people go, behold, I will send dog-flies upon thee, and upon thy bondmen, and upon thy people, and into thy houses; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of dog-flies, and also the ground on which they are.
22And I will distinguish in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no dog-flies shall be there; that thou mayest know that I Jehovah am in the midst of the land.
23And I will put a separation between my people and thy people; to-morrow shall this sign be.
24And Jehovah did so; and there came dog-flies in a multitude into the house of Pharaoh, and into the houses of his bondmen; and throughout the land of Egypt, the land was corrupted by the dog-flies.
25And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and said, Go, sacrifice to your God in the land.
26And Moses said, It is not proper to do so; for we should sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Jehovah our God: lo, if we sacrificed the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, would they not stone us?
27We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Jehovah our God, as he shall command us.
28And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to Jehovah your God in the wilderness; only, go not very far away: intreat for me!
29And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and will intreat Jehovah; and the dog-flies will depart from Pharaoh, from his bondmen, and from his people, to-morrow; only let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Jehovah.
30And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and intreated Jehovah.
31And Jehovah did according to the word of Moses; and he removed the dog-flies from Pharaoh, from his bondmen, and from his people; there remained not one.
32And Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and would not let the people go.
1And Jehovah said to Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus saith Jehovah the God of the Hebrews: Let my people go, that they may serve me.
2For if thou refuse to let them go, and shalt retain them still,
3behold, the hand of Jehovah shall be on thy cattle which is in the field, on the horses, on the asses, on the camels, on the oxen and on the sheep, with a very grievous plague.
4And Jehovah will distinguish between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt; and there shall nothing die of all that the children of Israel have.
5And Jehovah appointed a set time, saying, To-morrow will Jehovah do this thing in the land.
6And Jehovah did this thing on the following day, and all the cattle of Egypt died; but of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one.
7And Pharaoh sent, and behold, there was not one of the cattle of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
8And Jehovah said to Moses and to Aaron, Take to yourselves handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses scatter it toward the heavens before the eyes of Pharaoh.
9And it shall become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall become boils on man and on cattle, breaking out with blisters, throughout the land of Egypt.
10And they took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it toward the heavens; and it became boils with blisters breaking out on man and on cattle.
11And the scribes could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the scribes, and on all the Egyptians.
12And Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he did not hearken to them, as Jehovah had told Moses.
13And Jehovah said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and set thyself before Pharaoh, and say to him, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews: Let my people go, that they may serve me.
14For I will at this time send all my plagues to thy heart, and on thy bondmen, and on thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all the earth.
15For now shall I put forth my hand, and I will smite thee and thy people with pestilence; and thou shalt be cut off from the earth.
16And for this very cause have I raised thee up, to shew thee my power; and that my name may be declared in all the earth.
17Dost thou still exalt thyself against my people, that thou wilt not let them go?
18Behold, to-morrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as hath not been in Egypt since its foundation until now.
19And now send, and secure thy cattle, and all that thou hast in the field: all the men and the cattle that are found in the field, and are not brought home--on them the hail shall come down, and they shall die.
20He that feared the word of Jehovah among the bondmen of Pharaoh made his bondmen and his cattle flee into the houses.
21But he that did not regard the word of Jehovah left his bondmen and his cattle in the field.
22And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand toward the heavens, that there may be hail throughout the land of Egypt, upon men, and upon cattle, and upon every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.
23And Moses stretched out his staff toward the heavens, and Jehovah gave thunder and hail; and the fire ran along the ground; and Jehovah rained hail on the land of Egypt.
24And there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, very grievous, such as there had been none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
25And the hail smote throughout the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both men and cattle; and the hail smote every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.
26Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, was there no hail.
27And Pharaoh sent, and called Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have sinned this time: Jehovah is the righteous one, but I and my people are the wicked ones.
28Intreat Jehovah that it may be enough, that there be no more thunder of God and hail; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer!
29And Moses said to him, When I go out of the city, I will spread out my hands to Jehovah: the thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail; that thou mayest know that the earth is Jehovah's.
30But as to thee and thy bondmen, I know that ye do not yet fear Jehovah Elohim.
31And the flax and the barley were smitten; for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was bolled.
32But the wheat and the spelt were not smitten; for they were not come out into ear.
33And Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread out his hands to Jehovah; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not any more poured on the earth.
34And Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders had ceased, and he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he, and his bondmen.
35And the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, neither would he let the children of Israel go, as Jehovah had spoken by Moses.
1And Jehovah said to Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh; for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his bondmen, that I might do these my signs in their midst,
2and that thou mightest tell in the ears of thy son and thy son's son what I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
3And Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh, and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah the God of the Hebrews: How long dost thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
4For, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, I will to-morrow bring locusts into thy borders;
5and they shall cover the face of the land, so that ye will not be able to see the land; and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which ye have remaining from the hail, and shall eat every tree which ye have growing in the field;
6and they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy bondmen, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned and went out from Pharaoh.
7And Pharaoh's bondmen said to him, How long shall this man be a snare to us? let the men go, that they may serve Jehovah their God: dost thou not yet know that Egypt is ruined?
8And Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh. And he said to them, Go, serve Jehovah your God. Who are they that shall go?
9And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters; with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we have a feast of Jehovah.
10And he said to them, Let Jehovah be so with you, as I let you go, and your little ones: see that evil is before you!
11Not so: go now, ye that are men, and serve Jehovah! for it is that ye have desired. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
12And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up over the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land--all that the hail hath left.
13And Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and Jehovah brought an east wind on the land all that day and all that night. When it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
14And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt, very grievous; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them will be such.
15And they covered the face of the whole land, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left; and there remained not any green thing on the trees, and in the herbs of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.
16And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you.
17And now, forgive, I pray you, my sin only this time, and intreat Jehovah your God that he may take away from me this death only!
18And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated Jehovah.
19And Jehovah turned a very powerful west wind, which took away the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea: there remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.
20And Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he did not let the children of Israel go.
21And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand toward the heavens, that there may be darkness in the land of Egypt--so that one may feel darkness.
22And Moses stretched out his hand toward the heavens; and there was a thick darkness throughout the land of Egypt three days:
23they saw not one another, neither rose any from his place, for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
24And Pharaoh called Moses and said, Go, serve Jehovah; only, let your flocks and your herds remain; let your little ones also go with you.
25And Moses said, Thou must give also sacrifices and burnt-offerings into our hands, that we may sacrifice to Jehovah our God.
26Our cattle also must go with us: there shall not a hoof be left behind; for we must take thereof to serve Jehovah our God; and we do not know with what we must serve Jehovah, until we come there.
27But Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he would not let them go.
28And Pharaoh said to him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in the day thou seest my face thou shalt die.
29And Moses said, Thou hast spoken rightly: I will see thy face again no more!
1And Jehovah said to Moses, Yet one plague will I bring upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence: when he shall let you go altogether, he shall utterly drive you out hence.
2Speak now in the ears of the people, that they ask every man of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, utensils of silver and utensils of gold.
3And Jehovah gave the people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt--in the eyes of Pharaoh's bondmen, and in the eyes of the people.
4And Moses said, Thus saith Jehovah: About midnight I will go out into the midst of Egypt.
5And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sitteth on his throne, even unto the firstborn of the bondwoman that is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of cattle.
6And there shall be a great cry throughout the land of Egypt, such as there hath been none like it, nor shall be like it any more.
7But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast; that ye may know that Jehovah distinguisheth between the Egyptians and Israel.
8And all these thy bondmen shall come down unto me, and bow down to me, saying, Go out, thou, and all the people that follow thee; and after that I will go out. And he went out from Pharaoh in a glowing anger.
9And Jehovah had said to Moses, Pharaoh shall not hearken to you; that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.
10And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh; but Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he did not let the children of Israel go out of his land.
1And Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
2This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
3Speak unto all the assembly of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month let them take themselves each a lamb, for a father's house, a lamb for a house.
4And if the household be too small for a lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take it according to the number of the souls; each according to the measure of his eating shall ye count for the lamb.
5Your lamb shall be without blemish, a yearling male; ye shall take it from the sheep, or from the goats.
6And ye shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month; and the whole congregation of the assembly of Israel shall kill it between the two evenings.
7And they shall take of the blood, and put it on the two door-posts and on the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.
8And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; with bitter herbs shall they eat it.
9Ye shall eat none of it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roast with fire; its head with its legs and with its in-wards.
10And ye shall let none of it remain until the morning; and what remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.
11And thus shall ye eat it: your loins shall be girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste; it is Jehovah's passover.
12And I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am Jehovah.
13And the blood shall be for you as a sign on the houses in which ye are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be among you for destruction, when I smite the land of Egypt.
14And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall celebrate it as a feast to Jehovah; throughout your generations as an ordinance for ever shall ye celebrate it.
15Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread: on the very first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses; for whoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day--that soul shall be cut off from Israel.
16And on the first day ye shall have a holy convocation, and on the seventh day a holy convocation: no manner of work shall be done on them, save what is eaten by every person--that only shall be done by you.
17And ye shall keep the feast of unleavened bread; for in this same day have I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt; and ye shall keep this day in your generations as an ordinance for ever.
18In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, ye shall eat unleavened bread until the one and twentieth day of the month in the evening.
19Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses; for whoever eateth what is leavened--that soul shall be cut off from the assembly of Israel, whether he be a sojourner, or born in the land.
20Ye shall eat nothing leavened: in all your dwellings shall ye eat unleavened bread.
21And Moses called all the elders of Israel, and said to them, Seize and take yourselves lambs for your families, and kill the passover.
22And take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and smear the lintel and the two door-posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.
23And Jehovah will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he sees the blood on the lintel, and on the two door-posts, Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come into your houses to smite you.
24And ye shall observe this as an ordinance for thee and for thy sons for ever.
25And it shall come to pass, when ye are come into the land that Jehovah will give you, as he has promised, that ye shall keep this service.
26And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say to you, What mean ye by this service?
27that ye shall say, It is a sacrifice of passover to Jehovah, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt when he smote the Egyptians and delivered our houses. And the people bowed their heads and worshipped.
28And the children of Israel went away, and did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
29And it came to pass that at midnight Jehovah smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of cattle.
30And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his bondmen, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house in which there was not one dead.
31And he called Moses and Aaron in the night, and said, Rise up, go away from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve Jehovah, as ye have said.
32Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and go; and bless me also.
33And the Egyptians urged the people, to send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We are all dead men!
34And the people took their dough before it was leavened; their kneading-troughs bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.
35And the children of Israel had done according to the word of Moses, and they had asked of the Egyptians utensils of silver, and utensils of gold, and clothing.
36And Jehovah had given the people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they gave to them; and they spoiled the Egyptians.
37And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot that were men, besides children.
38And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks and herds--very much cattle.
39And they baked the dough that they brought forth out of Egypt into unleavened cakes, for it was not leavened; for they were driven out of Egypt, and could not wait; neither had they prepared for themselves any food.
40And the residence of the children of Israel that they resided in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.
41And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, on that same day it came to pass that all the hosts of Jehovah went out from the land of Egypt.
42It is a night of observance to Jehovah, because of their being brought out from the land of Egypt: that same night is an observance to Jehovah for all the children of Israel in their generations.
43And Jehovah said to Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: No stranger shall eat of it;
44but every man's bondman that is bought for money--let him be circumcised: then shall he eat it.
45A settler and a hired servant shall not eat it.
46In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth any of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof.
47All the assembly of Israel shall hold it.
48And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee, and would hold the passover to Jehovah, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and hold it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land; but no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
49One law shall be for him that is home-born and for the sojourner that sojourneth among you.
50And all the children of Israel did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
51And it came to pass on that same day, that Jehovah brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt according to their hosts.
1And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2Hallow unto me every firstborn, whatever breaketh open the womb among the children of Israel, of man and of cattle: it is mine.
3And Moses said to the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for with a powerful hand hath Jehovah brought you out from this; and nothing leavened shall be eaten.
4Ye come out to-day, in the month Abib.
5And it shall be when Jehovah hath brought thee into the land of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, which he swore to thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt keep this service in this month.
6Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread; and in the seventh day is a feast to Jehovah.
7Unleavened bread shall be eaten the seven days; and leavened bread shall not be seen with thee, neither shall there be leaven seen with thee in all thy borders.
8And thou shalt inform thy son in that day, saying, It is because of what Jehovah did to me when I came out of Egypt.
9And it shall be for a sign to thee on thy hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the law of Jehovah may be in thy mouth; for with a powerful hand hath Jehovah brought thee out of Egypt.
10And thou shalt keep this ordinance at its set time from year to year.
11And it shall be when Jehovah hath brought thee into the land of the Canaanites, as he hath sworn to thee and to thy fathers, and hath given it thee,
12that thou shalt offer unto Jehovah all that breaketh open the womb, and every firstling that cometh of cattle which is thine: the males shall be Jehovah's.
13And every firstling of an ass shalt thou ransom with a lamb; and if thou do not ransom it, thou shalt break its neck; and every firstborn of a man among thy sons shalt thou ransom.
14And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What is this? that thou shalt say to him, With a powerful hand Jehovah brought us out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
15And it came to pass, when Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, that Jehovah slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of men and the firstborn of cattle: therefore I sacrifice to Jehovah all that breaketh open the womb--being males; and every firstborn of my children I ransom.
16And it shall be for a sign on thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes, for with a powerful hand Jehovah brought us forth out of Egypt.
17And it came to pass, when Pharaoh let the people go, that God did not lead them the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, That the people may not repent when they see conflict, and return to Egypt.
18And God led the people about, the way of the wilderness of the Red Sea; and the children of Israel went arrayed out of the land of Egypt.
19And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him; for he had made the children of Israel swear an oath, saying, God will be sure to visit you; then ye shall carry my bones with you hence.
20And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, at the end of the wilderness.
21And Jehovah went before their face by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them in the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; so that they could go day and night.
22The pillar of the cloud did not remove from before the people by day, nor the pillar of fire by night.
1And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea: before Baal-Zephon, opposite to it, shall ye encamp by the sea.
3And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness has hemmed them in.
4And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he may pursue after them; and I will glorify myself in Pharaoh, and in all his host; and the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah. And they did so.
5And it was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his bondmen was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from our service?
6And he yoked his chariot, and took his people with him.
7And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.
8And Jehovah hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; and the children of Israel had gone out with a high hand.
9And the Egyptians pursued after them,--all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them where they had encamped by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, opposite to Baal-Zephon.
10And Pharaoh approached; and the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and the children of Israel were much afraid, and cried out to Jehovah.
11And they said to Moses, Is it because there were no graves in Egypt, thou hast taken us away to die in the wilderness? why hast thou done this to us, that thou hast led us out of Egypt?
12Is not this what we told thee in Egypt, when we said, Let us alone, and we will serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.
13And Moses said to the people, Fear not: stand still, and see the salvation of Jehovah, which he will work for you to-day; for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to-day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
14Jehovah will fight for you, and ye shall be still.
15And Jehovah said to Moses, Why dost thou cry unto me? Speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward.
16And thou, lift thy staff, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
17And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall pursue after them; and I will glorify myself in Pharaoh and in all his host, in his chariots and in his horsemen.
18And the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have glorified myself in Pharaoh, in his chariots and in his horsemen.
19And the Angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before them, and stood behind them.
20And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and was a cloud and darkness, and lit up the night; and the one did not come near the other all the night.
21And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and Jehovah made the sea go back by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
22And the children of Israel went through the midst of the sea on the dry ground; and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
23And the Egyptians pursued and came after them--all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots and his horsemen, into the midst of the sea.
24And it came to pass in the morning watch, that Jehovah looked upon the camp of the Egyptians, in the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and embarrassed the camp of the Egyptians.
25And he took off their chariot wheels, and caused them to drive with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, Let us flee before Israel, for Jehovah is fighting for them against the Egyptians!
26And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the sea, that the waters may return upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots and upon their horsemen.
27And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength toward the morning; and the Egyptians fled against it; and Jehovah overturned the Egyptians into the midst of the sea.
28And the waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen of all the host of Pharaoh that had come into the sea after them; there remained not even one of them.
29And the children of Israel walked on dry ground through the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
30Thus Jehovah saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the sea-shore.
31And Israel saw the great power with which Jehovah had wrought against the Egyptians; and the people feared Jehovah, and believed in Jehovah, and in Moses his bondman.

Ex. 15:1‑21• 1Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song to Jehovah, and spoke, saying, I will sing unto Jehovah, for he is highly exalted: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
2My strength and song is Jah, and he is become my salvation: This is my *God, and I will glorify him; My father's God, and I will extol him.
3Jehovah is a man of war; Jehovah, his name.
4Pharaoh's chariots and his army hath he cast into the sea; His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea.
5The depths covered them; they sank to the bottom as a stone.
6Thy right hand, Jehovah, is become glorious in power: Thy right hand, Jehovah, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
7And by the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown thine adversaries: Thou sentest forth thy burning wrath, it consumed them as stubble.
8And by the breath of thy nostrils the waters were heaped up; The streams stood as a mound; The depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my soul shall be sated upon them; I will unsheath my sword, my hand shall dispossess them.
10Thou didst blow with thy breath, the sea covered them; They sank as lead in the mighty waters.
11Who is like unto thee, Jehovah, among the gods? Who is like unto thee, glorifying thyself in holiness, Fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
13Thou by thy mercy hast led forth the people that thou hast redeemed; Thou hast guided them by thy strength unto the abode of thy holiness.
14The peoples heard it, they were afraid: A thrill seized the inhabitants of Philistia.
15Then the princes of Edom were amazed; The mighty men of Moab, trembling hath seized them; All the inhabitants of Canaan melted away.
16Fear and dread fall upon them; By the greatness of thine arm they are still as a stone; Till thy people pass over, Jehovah, Till the people pass over that thou hast purchased.
17Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, The place that thou, Jehovah, hast made thy dwelling, The Sanctuary, Lord, that thy hands have prepared.
18Jehovah shall reign for ever and ever!
19For the horse of Pharaoh, with his chariots and with his horsemen, came into the sea, and Jehovah brought again the waters of the sea upon them; and the children of Israel went on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
20And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took the tambour in her hand, and all the women went out after her with tambours and with dances.
21And Miriam answered them, Sing to Jehovah, for he is highly exalted: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

10and didst shew signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants, and upon all the people of his land; for thou knewest that they dealt proudly against them, and thou didst make thee a name, as it is this day.
11And thou didst divide the sea before them, and they went through the midst of the sea on dry ground; and their pursuers thou threwest into the depths, as a stone into the mighty waters.
12And thou leddest them in the day by a pillar of cloud, and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way wherein they should go.

16The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they trembled, yea, the depths were troubled:
17The thick clouds poured out water; the skies sent out a sound, yea, thine arrows went abroad:
18The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind, lightnings lit up the world; the earth was troubled and it quaked.
19Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths are in the great waters; and thy footsteps are not known.
20Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
(Psa. 77:13‑20)

Psa. 78:12‑13,42‑53• 12In the sight of their fathers had he done wonders, in the land of Egypt, the field of Zoan.
13He clave the sea, and caused them to pass through; and made the waters to stand as a heap;
42They remembered not his hand, the day when he delivered them from the oppressor,
43How he set his signs in Egypt, and his miracles in the field of Zoan;
44And turned their rivers into blood, and their streams, that they could not drink;
45He sent dog-flies among them, which devoured them, and frogs, which destroyed them;
46And he gave their increase unto the caterpillar, and their labour unto the locust;
47He killed their vines with hail, and their sycamore trees with hail-stones;
48And he delivered up their cattle to the hail, and their flocks to thunderbolts.
49He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and distress,--a mission of angels of woes.
50He made a way for his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;
51And he smote all the firstborn in Egypt, the first-fruits of their vigour in the tents of Ham.
52And he made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock;
53And he led them safely, so that they were without fear; and the sea covered their enemies.

29He turned their waters into blood, and caused their fish to die.
30Their land swarmed with frogs,--in the chambers of their kings.
31He spoke, and there came dog-flies, and gnats in all their borders.
32He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land;
33And he smote their vines and their fig-trees, and broke the trees of their borders.
34He spoke, and the locust came, and the cankerworm, even without number;
35And they devoured every herb in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.
36And he smote every firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigour.
37And he brought them forth with silver and gold; and there was not one feeble among their tribes.

Psa. 106:7‑11• 7Our fathers in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea.
8Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make known his might.
9And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; and he led them through the deeps as through a wilderness.
10And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11And the waters covered their oppressors: there was not one of them left.

3The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;
4The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
5What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?
6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the +God of Jacob,
8Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

13To him that divided the Red sea into parts, for his loving-kindness endureth for ever,
14And made Israel to pass through the midst of it, for his loving-kindness endureth for ever,
15And overturned Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea, for his loving-kindness endureth for ever;

10But they rebelled and grieved his holy Spirit: and he turned to be their enemy; himself, he fought against them.
11But he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people: Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he that put his holy Spirit within him,
12his glorious arm leading them by the right hand of Moses, dividing the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name,
13--who led them through the depths, like a horse in the wilderness, and they stumbled not?
14As cattle go down into the valley, the Spirit of Jehovah gave them rest; so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.

 There is nothing more marked and unstinting than the seal of truth which the New everywhere puts upon the certainty of the Old. (Acts 13:13-31 by W. Kelly)
 {v.17-19} It is the Pentateuch and Book of Joshua in miniature, centering in Israel beloved for the fathers' sake. The gospel confirms, instead of annulling, God's love to Israel, though it announces “some better thing for us” as in Heb. 11. (Acts 13:13-31 by W. Kelly)
