Exodus 15
1 Then Moses and the children of Israel made this song to the Lord, and said, I will make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory: the horse and the horseman he has sent down into the sea.
| אז ישיר משה ובני ישראל את השירה הזאת ליהוה ויאמרו לאמר אשירה ליהוה כי גאה גאה סוס ורכבו רמה בים |
2 The Lord is my strength and my strong helper, he has become my salvation: he is my God and I will give him praise; my father's God and I will give him glory.
| עזי וזמרת יה ויהי לי לישועה זה אלי ואנוהו אלהי אבי וארממנהו |
3 The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name.
| יהוה איש מלחמה יהוה שמו |
4 Pharaoh's war-carriages and his army he has sent down into the sea: the best of his captains have gone down into the Red Sea.
| מרכבת פרעה וחילו ירה בים ומבחר שלשיו טבעו בים סוף |
5 They were covered by the deep waters: like a stone they went down under the waves.
| תהמת יכסימו ירדו במצולת כמו אבן |
6 Full of glory, O Lord, is the power of your right hand; by your right hand those who came against you are broken.
| ימינך יהוה נאדרי בכח ימינך יהוה תרעץ אויב |
7 When you are lifted up in power, all those who come against you are crushed: when you send out your wrath, they are burned up like dry grass.
| וברב גאונך תהרס קמיך תשלח חרנך--יאכלמו כקש |
8 By your breath the waves were massed together, the flowing waters were lifted up like a pillar; the deep waters became solid in the heart of the sea.
| וברוח אפיך נערמו מים נצבו כמו נד נזלים קפאו תהמת בלב ים |
9 Egypt said, I will go after them, I will overtake, I will make division of their goods: my desire will have its way with them; my sword will be uncovered, my hand will send destruction on them.
| אמר אויב ארדף אשיג אחלק שלל תמלאמו נפשי-- אריק חרבי תורישמו ידי |
10 You sent your wind and the sea came over them: they went down like lead into the great waters.
| נשפת ברוחך כסמו ים צללו כעופרת במים אדירים |
11 Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? who is like you, in holy glory, to be praised with fear, doing wonders?
| מי כמכה באלם יהוה מי כמכה נאדר בקדש נורא תהלת עשה פלא |
12 When your right hand was stretched out, the mouth of the earth was open for them.
| נטית ימינך--תבלעמו ארץ |
13 In your mercy you went before the people whom you have made yours; guiding them in your strength to your holy place.
| נחית בחסדך עם זו גאלת נהלת בעזך אל נוה קדשך |
14 Hearing of you the peoples were shaking in fear: the people of Philistia were gripped with pain.
| שמעו עמים ירגזון חיל אחז ישבי פלשת |
15 The chiefs of Edom were troubled in heart; the strong men of Moab were in the grip of fear: all the people of Canaan became like water.
| אז נבהלו אלופי אדום-- אילי מואב יאחזמו רעד נמגו כל ישבי כנען |
16 Fear and grief came on them; by the strength of your arm they were turned to stone; till your people went over, O Lord, till the people went over whom you have made yours.
| תפל עליהם אימתה ופחד בגדל זרועך ידמו כאבן עד יעבר עמך יהוה עד יעבר עם זו קנית |
17 You will take them in, planting them in the mountain of your heritage, the place, O Lord, where you have made your house, the holy place, O Lord, the building of your hands.
| תבאמו ותטעמו בהר נחלתך-- מכון לשבתך פעלת יהוה מקדש אדני כוננו ידיך |
18 The Lord is King for ever and ever.
| יהוה ימלך לעלם ועד |
19 For the horses of Pharaoh, with his war-carriages and his horsemen, went into the sea, and the Lord sent the waters of the sea back over them; but the children of Israel went through the sea on dry land.
| כי בא סוס פרעה ברכבו ובפרשיו בים וישב יהוה עלהם את מי הים ובני ישראל הלכו ביבשה בתוך הים |
20 And Miriam, the woman prophet, the sister of Aaron, took an instrument of music in her hand; and all the women went after her with music and dances.
| ותקח מרים הנביאה אחות אהרן את התף--בידה ותצאן כל הנשים אחריה בתפים ובמחלת |
21 And Miriam, answering, said, Make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory; the horse and the horseman he has sent into the sea.
| ותען להם מרים שירו ליהוה כי גאה גאה סוס ורכבו רמה בים |
22 Then Moses took Israel forward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the waste land of Shur; and for three days they were in the waste land where there was no water.
| ויסע משה את ישראל מים סוף ויצאו אל מדבר שור וילכו שלשת ימים במדבר ולא מצאו מים |
23 And when they came to Marah, the water was no good for drinking, for the waters of Marah were bitter, which is why it was named Marah.
| ויבאו מרתה--ולא יכלו לשתת מים ממרה כי מרים הם על כן קרא שמה מרה |
24 And the people, crying out against Moses, said, What are we to have for drink?
| וילנו העם על משה לאמר מה נשתה |
25 And in answer to his prayer, the Lord made him see a tree, and when he put it into the water, the water was made sweet. There he gave them a law and an order, testing them;
| ויצעק אל יהוה ויורהו יהוה עץ וישלך אל המים וימתקו המים שם שם לו חק ומשפט ושם נסהו |
26 And he said, If with all your heart you will give attention to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his eyes, giving ear to his orders and keeping his laws, I will not put on you any of the diseases which I put on the Egyptians: for I am the Lord your life-giver.
| ויאמר אם שמוע תשמע לקול יהוה אלהיך והישר בעיניו תעשה והאזנת למצותיו ושמרת כל חקיו--כל המחלה אשר שמתי במצרים לא אשים עליך כי אני יהוה רפאך |
27 And they came to Elim where there were twelve water-springs and seventy palm-trees: and they put up their tents there by the waters.
| ויבאו אילמה--ושם שתים עשרה עינת מים ושבעים תמרים ויחנו שם על המים |
