Exodus 15

1 Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord: “I will sing to the Lord, for he is supreme! He has thrown the horses and their riders 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 gives me strength. He is the theme of my song. He saves me. He is my God, and I will praise him. He is my father's God, and I will honor 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 warrior. His name is the Lord.

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

4 He threw Pharaoh's chariots and his army into the sea. Pharaoh's best officers were drowned 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 flooding water covered them. They dropped down into the depths like a stone.

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

6 Your power, Lord, is truly amazing! Your power, Lord, crushed the enemy.

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

7 By your majestic power you destroyed those who opposed you. Your anger blazed out and burned them up like stubble.

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

8 You blew and the sea piled up. The waves stood straight like a wall. The depths of the ocean turned solid.

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

9 The enemy bragged, ‘I will chase them and catch up with them. I will divide the plunder. I will eat them alive. I will swing my sword. By my hand I will destroy them.’

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

10 But you blew with your breath and the sea swept over them. They sank down like lead in the swirling 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 among the gods, Lord? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, awesome in wonder, doing miracles?

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

12 You acted, and the earth swallowed the Egyptians.

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

13 You led the people you saved with your trustworthy love. You will guide them in your strength to your holy home.

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

14 The nations will hear what has happened and will shake with fear. The people who live in Philistia will experience agonizing distress.

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

15 The Edomite chiefs will be terrified. The Moabite leaders will tremble. The people living in Canaan will melt away in panic.

16 Terror and fright will fall on them. Lord, because of your great power, they will be as still as stone until your people pass by, until the people you bought pass by.

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

17 You will take your people and plant them on the mountain that you own, the place that you, Lord, have prepared as your home, the sanctuary that your hands have built, Lord.

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 forever and ever!”

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

19 When Pharaoh's horses, chariots, and horsemen went into the sea, the Lord brought the water rushing back over them. But the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground.

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 Miriam the prophet, Aaron's sister, picked up a tambourine, and all the women followed her dancing and playing tambourines.

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

21 Miriam sang to them: “Sing to the Lord, for he is supreme! He has thrown the horses and their riders 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 led Israel away from the Red Sea and into the Desert of Shur. For three days they walked in the desert but couldn't find any 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 When they arrived at Marah, the water there was too bitter to drink. (That's why the place is called Marah.)

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 So the people complained to Moses, asking, “What are we going to drink?”

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

25 Moses called out to the Lord for help, and the Lord showed him a piece of wood. When he threw it into the water, it became sweet. There the Lord gave them rules and instructions and also tested their loyalty to him.

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 He told them, “If you pay attention to what the Lord your God says, do what is right in his sight, obey his commands, and keep all his regulations, then I will not make you suffer from any of the diseases I gave the Egyptians because I am the Lord who heals you.”

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 they traveled on to Elim, which had twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees. They set up camp there beside the water.

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.
