The Song of Moses
1 Moses and the Israelites sang this song in praise of the Lord:
I sing praises to the Lord
for his great victory!
He has thrown the horses
and their riders
into the sea.
2 The Lord is my strength,
the reason for my song,
because he has saved me.
I praise and honor the Lord—
he is my God and the God
of my ancestors.
3The Lord is his name,
and he is a warrior!
4He threw the chariots and army
of Egypt's king
into the Red Sea,
and he drowned the best
of the king's officers.
5They sank to the bottom
just like stones.
6With the tremendous force
of your right arm, our Lord,
you crushed your enemies.
7What a great victory was yours,
when you defeated everyone
who opposed you.
Y
