Exodus 15
1 Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the Lord, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
1 Tunc cecinit Moyses et filii Israël carmen hoc Domino, et dixerunt: Cantemus Domino: gloriose enim magnificatus est,
equum et ascensorem dejecit in mare.
equum et ascensorem dejecit in mare.
2 The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.
2 Fortitudo mea, et laus mea Dominus,
et factus est mihi in salutem:
iste Deus meus, et glorificabo eum:
Deus patris mei, et exaltabo eum.
et factus est mihi in salutem:
iste Deus meus, et glorificabo eum:
Deus patris mei, et exaltabo eum.
3 The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name.
3 Dominus quasi vir pugnator,
Omnipotens nomen ejus,
Omnipotens nomen ejus,
4 Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.
4 currus Pharaonis et exercitum ejus projecit in mare:
electi principes ejus submersi sunt in mari Rubro.
electi principes ejus submersi sunt in mari Rubro.
5 The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.
5 Abyssi operuerunt eos;
descenderunt in profundum quasi lapis.
descenderunt in profundum quasi lapis.
6 Thy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
6 Dextera tua, Domine, magnificata est in fortitudine:
dextera tua, Domine, percussit inimicum.
dextera tua, Domine, percussit inimicum.
7 And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.
7 Et in multitudine gloriæ tuæ deposuisti adversarios tuos:
misisti iram tuam, quæ devoravit eos sicut stipulam.
misisti iram tuam, quæ devoravit eos sicut stipulam.
8 And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
8 Et in spiritu furoris tui congregatæ sunt aquæ:
stetit unda fluens, congregata sunt abyssi in medio mari.
stetit unda fluens, congregata sunt abyssi in medio mari.
9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
9 Dixit inimicus: Persequar et comprehendam,
dividam spolia, implebitur anima mea:
evaginabo gladium meum, interficiet eos manus mea.
dividam spolia, implebitur anima mea:
evaginabo gladium meum, interficiet eos manus mea.
10 Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.
10 Flavit spiritus tuus, et operuit eos mare:
submersi sunt quasi plumbum in aquis vehementibus.
submersi sunt quasi plumbum in aquis vehementibus.
11 Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
11 Quis similis tui in fortibus, Domine?
quis similis tui, magnificus in sanctitate,
terribilis atque laudabilis, faciens mirabilia?
quis similis tui, magnificus in sanctitate,
terribilis atque laudabilis, faciens mirabilia?
12 Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
12 Extendisti manum tuam, et devoravit eos terra.
13 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.
13 Dux fuisti in misericordia tua populo quem redemisti:
et portasti eum in fortitudine tua, ad habitaculum sanctum tuum.
et portasti eum in fortitudine tua, ad habitaculum sanctum tuum.
14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.
14 Ascenderunt populi, et irati sunt:
dolores obtinuerunt habitatores Philisthiim.
dolores obtinuerunt habitatores Philisthiim.
15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
15 Tunc conturbati sunt principes Edom,
robustos Moab obtinuit tremor:
obriguerunt omnes habitatores Chanaan.
robustos Moab obtinuit tremor:
obriguerunt omnes habitatores Chanaan.
16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O Lord, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
16 Irruat super eos formido et pavor, in magnitudine brachii tui:
fiant immobiles quasi lapis,
donec pertranseat populus tuus, Domine,
donec pertranseat populus tuus iste, quem possedisti.
fiant immobiles quasi lapis,
donec pertranseat populus tuus, Domine,
donec pertranseat populus tuus iste, quem possedisti.
17 Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O Lord, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
17 Introduces eos, et plantabis in monte hæreditatis tuæ,
firmissimo habitaculo tuo quod operatus es, Domine:
sanctuarium tuum, Domine, quod firmaverunt manus tuæ.
firmissimo habitaculo tuo quod operatus es, Domine:
sanctuarium tuum, Domine, quod firmaverunt manus tuæ.
18 The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.
18 Dominus regnabit in æternum et ultra.
19 For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.
19 Ingressus est enim eques Pharao
cum curribus et equitibus ejus in mare:
et reduxit super eos Dominus
aquas maris:
filii autem Israël ambulaverunt per siccum in medio ejus.
cum curribus et equitibus ejus in mare:
et reduxit super eos Dominus
aquas maris:
filii autem Israël ambulaverunt per siccum in medio ejus.
20 ¶ And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.

21 And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
21 quibus præcinebat, dicens: Cantemus Domino, gloriose enim magnificatus est:
equum et ascensorem ejus dejecit in mare.
equum et ascensorem ejus dejecit in mare.
22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.

23 ¶ And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah.
23 Et venerunt in Mara, nec poterant bibere aquas de Mara, eo quod essent amaræ: unde et congruum loco nomen imposuit, vocans illum Mara, id est, amaritudinem.
24 And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
24 Et murmuravit populus contra Moysen, dicens: Quid bibemus?
25 And he cried unto the Lord; and the Lord shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,
25 At ille clamavit ad Dominum, qui ostendit ei lignum: quod cum misisset in aquas, in dulcedinem versæ sunt: ibi constituit ei præcepta, atque judicia, et ibi tentavit eum,
26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.
26 dicens: Si audieris vocem Domini Dei tui, et quod rectum est coram eo feceris, et obedieris mandatis ejus, custodierisque omnia præcepta illius, cunctum languorem, quem posui in Ægypto, non inducam super te: ego enim Dominus sanator tuus.
