2 ‘The Lord is my strength and my defence;he has become my salvation.He is my God, and I will praise him,my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
3 The Lord is a warrior;the Lord is his name.
4 Pharaoh’s chariots and his armyhe has hurled into the sea.The best of Pharaoh’s officersare drowned in the Red Sea.
5 The deep waters have covered them;they sank to the depths like a stone.
6 Your right hand, Lord,was majestic in power.Your right hand, Lord,shattered the enemy.
7 ‘In the greatness of your majestyyou threw down those who opposed you.You unleashed your burning anger;it consumed them like stubble.
8 By the blast of your nostrilsthe waters piled up.The surging waters stood up like a wall;the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea.
