Exodus 15
1 Then Moses and the people of Israel sang this song to Yahweh. They sang, “I will sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and its rider he has thrown into the sea.
那時梅瑟和以色列子民唱了這篇詩歌，歌頌上主說：我要歌頌上主，因他獲得全勝，將馬和騎兵投於海中。
2 Yahweh is my strength and song, and he has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him.
上主是我的力量和保障，他作了我的救援。他是我的天主，我要頌揚他；是我祖先的天主，我要讚美他。
3 Yahweh is a warrior; Yahweh is his name.
上主是戰士，名叫「雅威。」
4 He has thrown Pharaoh's chariots and army into the sea. Pharaoh's chosen officers were drowned in the Sea of Reeds.
法郎的戰車軍隊，他投於海中，使他的良將沉於紅海。
5 The depths covered them; they went down into the depths like a stone.
浪濤淹沒了他們，像大石沉入海底。
6 Your right hand, Yahweh, is glorious in power; your right hand, Yahweh, has shattered the enemy.
上主，你的右手大顯神能；上主，你的右手擊碎了敵人。
7 In great majesty you overthrew those who rose up against you. You sent out your wrath; it consumed them like stubble.
以你無比的威嚴，毀滅了你的敵人；你發出的怒火，燒滅他們像燒麥楷。
8 By the blast of your nostrils the waters were piled up; the flowing waters stood upright in a heap; the deep water was congealed in the heart of the sea.
你鼻孔一噴氣，大水聚集，浪濤直立如堤，深淵凝固於海心。
9 The enemy said, 'I will pursue, I will overtake, I will share out the plunder; my desire will be satisfied on them; I will draw my sword; my hand will destroy them.'
仇人說：「我要追擊擒獲，分得獵物，才心滿意足；我要拔刀出鞘，親手斬滅。」
10 But you blew with your wind, and the sea covered them; they sank like lead in the mighty waters.
但你一噓氣，海將他們覆沒，像鉛沉入深淵。
11 Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, honored in praises, doing miracles?
上主，眾神誰可與你相比﹖誰能像你那樣，神聖尊威，光榮可畏，施行奇蹟!
12 You reached out with your right hand, and the earth swallowed them.
你伸出右手，大地就吞了他們；
13 In your covenant loyalty you have led the people you have rescued. In your strength you have led them to the holy place where you live.
以你的慈愛，領出了你所救的百姓；憑你的能力，領他們進入了你的聖所。
14 The peoples will hear, and they will tremble; terror will seize the inhabitants of Philistia.
外邦聽了，必驚慌顫慄，恐怖籠罩了培肋舍特居民；
15 Then the chiefs of Edom will fear; the soldiers of Moab will shake; all the inhabitants of Canaan will melt away.
那時厄東的酋長驚慌失措，摩阿布的首領嚇的發抖，客納罕的居民膽顫心寒。
16 Terror and dread will fall on them. Because of your arm's power, they will become as still as a stone until your people pass by, Yahweh— until the people you have rescued pass by.
驚慌與恐怖降在他們身上；因你大能的手臂，他們像石塊僵立不動，直到你的百姓走過，上主! 直到你所救贖的百姓走過。
17 You will bring them and plant them on the mountain of your inheritance, the place, Yahweh, that you have made to live in, the sanctuary, our Lord, that your hands have built.
上主，你引領他們，吾主，在你為物業的山上，在你為自己準備的住所，在你親手建立的聖所，培植了他們。
18 Yahweh will reign forever and ever.”
上主為王，萬世無疆!
19 For Pharaoh's horses went with his chariots and horsemen into the sea. Yahweh brought back the waters of the sea on them. But the Israelites walked on dry land in the middle of the sea.
法郎的馬、戰車和騎兵一到海中，上主就使海水回流，淹沒了他們；以色列子民卻在海中乾地上走過。
20 Miriam the prophetess, sister of Aaron, picked up a tambourine, and all the women went out with tambourines, dancing along with her.
此時亞郎的姐妹女先知米黎盎手中拿著鼓，眾婦女也都跟著她，拿著鼓舞蹈。
21 Miriam sang to them: “Sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.”
米黎盎應和他們說：「你們應歌頌上主，因他獲得全勝，將馬和騎士投入海中。」變苦水為甜水
22 Then Moses led Israel onward from the Sea of Reeds. They went out into the wilderness of Shur. They traveled for three days into the wilderness and found no water.
以後梅瑟命以色列人由紅海起營，往叔爾曠野去；他們在曠野裏走了三天，沒有找到水。
23 Then they came to Marah, but they could not drink the water there because it was bitter. So they called that place Marah.
隨後，到了瑪辣，但不能喝瑪辣的水，因為水苦；因此稱那地為瑪辣。
24 So the people complained to Moses and said, “What can we drink?”
那時百姓抱怨梅瑟說：「我們喝什麼呢﹖」
25 Moses cried out to Yahweh, and Yahweh showed him a tree. Moses threw it into the water, and the water became sweet to drink. It was there that Yahweh gave them a strict law, and it was there that he tested them.
梅瑟遂呼號上主，上主便指給他一塊木頭；他把木頭扔在水裏，水就變成甜水。上主在那裏給百姓立定了法律和典章，也在那裏試探了他們。
26 He said, “If you carefully listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, and do what is right in his eyes, and if you give ear to his commands and obey all his laws—I will put on you none of the diseases that I put on the Egyptians, for I am Yahweh who heals you.”
上主說：「你若誠心聽從上主你天主的話，行他眼中視為正義的事，服從他的命令，遵守他的一切法律，我決不加於埃及人的災殃，加於你們，因為我是醫治你的上主。」
27 Then the people came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees. They camped there by the water.
以後他們到了厄林，那裏有十二股水泉，七十棵棕樹。他們便在那裏靠近水邊安了營。
