Exodus 15

1 Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and they said: “Let us sing to the Lord, for he has been gloriously magnified: the horse and the rider he has cast into the sea.

Lalu Musa dan orang-orang Israel menyanyikan nyanyian ini untuk memuji TUHAN, "Aku mau menyanyi bagi TUHAN, sebab Ia telah menang dengan gemilang. Semua kuda dan penunggangnya dilemparkan-Nya ke dalam laut.

2 The Lord is my strength and my praise, and he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I shall glorify him. He is the God of my father, and I shall exalt him.

TUHAN pembelaku yang kuat; Dialah yang menyelamatkan aku. Ia Allahku, aku mau memuji Dia, Allah pujaan nenek moyangku, kuagungkan Dia.

3 The Lord is like a fighting man. Almighty is his name.

TUHAN adalah pejuang yang perkasa, TUHAN, itulah nama-Nya.

4 The chariots of Pharaoh, and his army, he has cast into the sea; his elect leaders have been submerged in the Red Sea.

Tentara Mesir dan semua keretanya dilemparkan-Nya ke dalam laut. Perwira-perwira yang paling gagah tenggelam di Laut Gelagah.

5 The abyss has covered them. They descended into the depths like a stone.

Mereka ditelan laut yang dalam, dan seperti batu turun ke dasarnya.

6 Your right hand, O Lord, has been magnified in strength. Your right hand, O Lord, has struck down the enemy.

Kekuatan-Mu sangat menakjubkan, ya TUHAN, Kaubuat musuh habis berantakan.

7 And in the multitude of your glory you have put down your adversaries. You sent out your wrath, which devoured them like stubble.

Dengan keagungan-Mu yang besar Kaubinasakan semua yang melawan Engkau. Kemarahan-Mu berkobar seperti api, dan membakar mereka seperti jerami.

8 And by the breath of your fury, the waters were gathered together. The flowing waves stood still. The abyss was gathered into the midst of the sea.

Laut Kautiup, air menggulung tinggi, berdiri tegak seperti tembok, sehingga dasar laut dapat dilalui.

9 The enemy said: ‘I will pursue and overtake them. I will divide the spoils. My soul will be filled. I will unsheathe my sword. My hand will put them to death.’

Kata musuh, 'Mereka akan kukejar dan kutangkap, kuhunus pedangku, dan kutumpas mereka. Lalu semua harta mereka kurampas, kubagi-bagikan dan kunikmati sampai puas.'

10 Your breath blew, and the sea covered them. They were submerged like lead into the mighty waters.

Tetapi TUHAN dengan sekali bernapas mendatangkan bagi Mesir hari yang naas. Mereka tenggelam seperti timah yang berat di dalam gelora air yang dahsyat.

11 Who is like you in strength, O Lord? Who is like you: magnificent in sanctity, terrible and yet praiseworthy, accomplishing miracles?

Allah mana dapat menandingi Engkau, ya TUHAN Yang Mahamulia dan suci? Siapa dapat membuat keajaiban-keajaiban dan perbuatan besar seperti TUHAN?

12 You extended your hand, and the earth devoured them.

Kaurentangkan tangan kanan-Mu, maka lenyaplah musuh ditelan bumi.

13 In your mercy, you have been a leader to the people whom you have redeemed. And in your strength, you have carried them to your holy dwelling place.

Kaupimpin bangsa yang telah Kauselamatkan ini, karena Engkau setia kepada janji-Mu. Dengan kekuatan besar mereka Kaulindungi, dan Kaubimbing ke tanahmu yang suci.

14 Peoples rose up and became angry. Sorrows took hold of the inhabitants of Philistia.

Bangsa-bangsa mendengarnya dan gemetar; orang Filistin dan para pemimpin Edom gempar. Orang Moab yang perkasa menggigil, orang Kanaan berkecil hati.

15 Then the leaders of Edom were stirred up, and trembling took hold of the robust of Moab. All the inhabitants of Canaan were petrified.

16 Let fear and dread fall upon them, by the magnitude of your arm. Let them become immobilized like stone, until your people cross through, O Lord, until this, your people whom you possess, cross through.

Mereka sangat ketakutan menyaksikan kekuatan TUHAN. Waktu umat-Mu lewat, musuh tak kuasa menahan; loloslah bangsa yang telah Kaubebaskan.

17 You shall lead them in and plant them, on the mountain of your inheritance, in your most firm dwelling place, which you have formed, O Lord, your sanctuary, O Lord, which your hands have made firm.

Lalu Israel Kauhantarkan ke tempat yang Kaupilih untuk kediaman-Mu. Mereka menetap di bukit-Mu yang suci, di Rumah yang Kaubangun sendiri.

18 The Lord will reign in eternity and beyond.

Engkaulah TUHAN, Raja, yang memerintah selama-lamanya."

19 For the rider Pharaoh, with his chariots and horsemen, was brought into the sea. And the Lord brought back upon them the waters of the sea. But the sons of Israel walked across dry ground in its midst.”

Pada waktu orang Israel menyeberangi laut, mereka berjalan di dasarnya yang kering. Tetapi ketika kereta-kereta Mesir dengan kuda dan penunggangnya masuk ke dalam laut, TUHAN membuat airnya mengalir kembali sehingga mereka tenggelam.

20 And so Miriam, the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took up a timbrel in her hand. And all the women followed her with timbrels and dancing.

Lalu Miryam, seorang nabiah, kakak Harun, mengambil rebananya, dan semua wanita ikut memukul rebana sambil menari.

21 And she prophesied, saying: “Let us sing to the Lord, for he has been gloriously magnified. The horse and its rider, he has thrown into the sea.”

Miryam bernyanyi untuk mereka, "Bernyanyilah bagi TUHAN, sebab Ia telah menang dengan gemilang. Semua kuda dan pengendaranya dilemparkan-Nya ke dalam laut."

22 Then Moses took Israel from the Red Sea, and they went forth into the desert of Shur. And they wandered for three days through the wilderness, and they found no water.

Kemudian Musa membawa bangsa Israel dari Laut Gelagah menuju ke padang gurun Syur. Selama tiga hari mereka berjalan melalui padang gurun tanpa menemukan air.

23 And they arrived at Marah. They were unable to drink the waters of Marah because they were bitter. Therefore, he also established a name befitting the place, calling it ‘Marah,’ that is, bitterness.

Lalu sampailah mereka di tempat yang bernama Mara, tetapi air di situ pahit sekali, sehingga tak bisa diminum. Sebab itu tempat itu disebut Mara, artinya pahit.

24 And the people murmured against Moses, saying: “What shall we drink?”

Maka orang-orang itu mengomel kepada Musa dan bertanya, "Apa yang akan kita minum?"

25 So he cried out to the Lord, who showed him a tree. And when he had cast it into the waters, they were turned into sweetness. In that place, he established instructions for him, and also judgments. And he tested him there,

Musa berdoa dengan sungguh-sungguh kepada TUHAN, lalu TUHAN menunjukkan kepadanya sepotong kayu. Kayu itu dilemparkan Musa ke dalam air, lalu air itu menjadi tawar, sehingga dapat diminum. Di tempat itu TUHAN memberi peraturan-peraturan kepada mereka, dan di situ juga Ia mencobai mereka.

26 saying: “If you will listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his sight, and obey his commands, and keep all his precepts, I will not bring upon you any of the distress that I imposed on Egypt. For I am the Lord, your healer.”

Kata TUHAN, "Taatilah Aku dengan sungguh-sungguh, dan lakukanlah apa yang Kupandang baik; ikutilah semua perintah-Ku. Kalau kamu berbuat begitu, kamu tidak akan Kuhukum dengan penyakit-penyakit yang Kutimpakan kepada orang Mesir. Akulah TUHAN yang menyembuhkan kamu."

27 Then the sons of Israel arrived in Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water and seventy palm trees. And they camped next to the waters.

Sesudah itu mereka tiba di tempat yang bernama Elim. Di situ ada dua belas sumber air dan tujuh puluh pohon kurma. Mereka berkemah di dekat air itu.
