Exodus 14
1 Forsothe the Lord spak to Moises, and seide, Speke thou to the sones of Israel;
從厄堂到紅海1. 上主訓示梅瑟說：「
2 turne thei ayen, and sette thei tentis euene ayens Fiayroth, which is bitwixe Magdalum and the see, ayens Beelsefon; in the siyt therof ye schulen sette tentis ouer the see.
你吩咐以色列子民轉回，在米革多耳及海之間的丕哈希洛特前，面對巴耳責豐安營，即在巴耳責豐之前，靠近海邊安營。
3 And Farao schal seie on the sones of Israel, Thei ben maad streit in the lond, the deseert hath closid hem to gidere.
如此，法朗必然以為以色列子民在國境內迷了路，曠野困住了他們。
4 And Y schal make hard his herte, and he schal pursue you, and Y schal be glorified in Farao, and in al his oost; and Egipcians schulen wite that Y am the Lord; and thei diden so.
我要使法郎心硬，在後面追趕他們，這樣我將在法郎和他全軍身上，大顯神能，使埃及人知道我是上主。」以色列子民就照樣作了。法郎追趕以列
5 And it was teld to the kyng of Egipcians, that the puple hadde fled; and the herte of Farao and of hise seruauntis was chaungid on the puple, and thei seiden, What wolden we do, that we leften Israel, that it schulde not serue us?
有人報告埃及王說：那百姓逃走了。法郎和他的臣僕對那百姓變了心，說：「我們放走以色列人，不再給我們服役，這是作的什麼事﹖」
6 Therfor Farao ioynede the chare, and took with him al his puple;
法郎遂命人準備他的車，親自率領兵士，
7 and he took sixe hundrid chosyn charis, and what euer thing of charis was in Egipt, and duykis of al the oost.
還帶了六百輛精良戰車和埃及所有的戰車，每輛車上都有戰士駕駛。
8 And the Lord made hard `the herte of Farao, kyng of Egipt, and he pursuede the sones of Israel; and thei weren go out in an hiy hond.
上主使埃及王法郎心硬，在後面追趕以色列子民；當以色列子民大膽前行的時候，
9 And whanne Egipcians pursueden the steppis of the sones of Israel bifor goynge, thei founden hem in tentis on the see; al the chyualrye and charis of Farao, and al the oost weren in Fiayroth, ayens Beelsefon.
埃及人在後面追趕他們，法郎所有的車馬、騎士和步兵就在靠近丕哈希洛特，巴耳責豐對面，以色列子民安營的地方趕上了。
10 And whanne Farao hadde neiyed the sones of Israel, reisiden her iyen, and thei sien Egipcians bihynde hem, and dredden greetli; and thei crieden to the Lord,
當法郎來近的時候，以色列子民舉目，看見埃及人趕來，都十分恐怖，向上主哀號，
11 and seiden to Moises, In hap sepulcris weren not in Egipt, therfor thou hast take vs awei, that we schulen die in wildirnesse? what woldist thou do this, that thou leddist vs out of Egipt?
也向梅瑟說：「你帶我們死在曠野裏，難道埃及沒有墳墓嗎﹖你為什麼這樣待我們，將我們從埃及出來﹖
12 Whether this is not the word which we spaken to thee in Egipt, `and seiden, Go awei fro vs, that we serue Egipcians? for it is myche betere to serue hem, than to die in wildirnesse.
我們在埃及不是對你說過這話：不要擾亂我們，我們甘願服侍埃及人，服侍埃及人總比死在曠野裏還好啊! 」
13 And Moises seide to the puple, Nyle ye drede, stonde ye, and `se ye the grete werkys of God, whiche he schal do to dai; for ye schulen no more se Egipcians, whiche ye seen now, til in to with outen ende;
梅瑟向百姓說：「你們不要害怕，站著別動，觀看上主今天給你們施的救恩，因為你們所見的埃及人，永遠再見不到了。
14 the Lord schal fiyte for you, and ye schulen be stille.
上主必替你們作戰，你們應安靜等待。」過紅海
15 And the Lord seide to Moises, What criest thou to me? Speke thou to the sones of Israel, that thei go forth; forsothe reise thou thi yerde,
上主向梅瑟說：「你為什麼向我哀號，吩咐以色列子民起營前行。
16 and stretche forth thin hond on the see, and departe thou it, that the sones of Israel go in the myddis of the see, by drie place.
你舉起棍杖，把你的手伸到海上，分開海水，叫以色列子民在海中乾地上走過。
17 Forsothe Y schal make hard the herte of Egipcians, that thei pursue you, and Y schal be glorified in Farao, and in al the oost of hym, and in the charis, and in the knyytis of hym;
你看，我要使埃及人的心硬，在後面趕以色列子民；這樣我好叫法郎和他全軍，戰車和騎兵身上，大顯神能。
18 and Egipcians schulen wite that Y am the Lord God, whanne Y schal be glorified in Farao, and in the charis, and in the knyytis of hym.
我向法郎，向他的戰車和騎兵大顯神能的時候，埃及人將會知道我是上主。」
19 And the aungel of the Lord, that yede bifore the castellis of Israel, took hym silf, and yede bihynde hem; and the piler of cloude yede to gidir with hym, and lefte the formere thingis aftir the bak,
在以色列大隊前面走的天主使者，就轉到他們的後面走，雲柱也從他們前面轉到他們後面停下，
20 and stood bitwixe the `castels of Egipcians and castels of Israel; and the cloude was derk toward Egipcians, and liytnynge `the nyyt toward `the children of Israel, so that in al the tyme of the niyt thei miyten not neiy togidere to hem silf.
即來到埃及軍營和以色列軍營中間；那一夜雲柱一面發黑，一面發光，這樣整夜軍隊彼此不能接近。
21 And whanne Moises hadde stretchid forth the hond on the see, the Lord took it awei, the while a greet wynde and brennynge blew in al the niyt, and turnede in to dryenesse; and the watir was departid.
梅瑟向海伸手，上主就用極強的東風，一夜之間把海颳退，使海底成為乾地。水分開以後，
22 And the sones of Israel entriden by the myddis of the drye see; for the watir was as a wal at the riyt side and left side of hem.
以色列子民便在海中乾地上走過，水在他們左右好像牆壁。埃及人沉沒海中
23 And Egipcians pursueden, and entriden aftir hem, al the ridyng of Farao, hise charis, and knyytis, bi the myddis of the see.
隨後埃及人也趕來，法郎所有的馬、戰車和騎兵，都跟著他們來到海中。
24 And the wakyng of the morewtid cam thanne, and lo! the Lord bihelde on the castels of Egipcians, bi a piler of fier, and of cloude, and killide the oost of hem; and he destriede the wheelis of charis,
到了晨時末更，上主在火柱和雲柱上，窺探埃及軍隊，使埃及的軍隊混亂。
25 and tho weren borun in to the depthe. Therfor Egipcians seiden, Fle we Israel; for the Lord fiytith for hem ayenus vs.
又使他們的車輪脫落，難以行走，以致埃及人說：「我們由以色列逃走罷! 因為上主替他們作戰，攻擊埃及人。」
26 And the Lord seide to Moises, Holde forth thin hond on the see, that the watris turne ayen to Egipcians, on the charis, and knyytis of hem.
上主對梅瑟說：「向海伸出你的手，使水回流到埃及人、他們的戰車和騎兵身上。」
27 And whanne Moises hadde hold forth the hoond ayens the see, it turnede ayen first in the morewtid to the formere place; and whanne Egipcians fledden, the watris camen ayen, and the Lord wlappide hem in the myddis of the floodis.
到了天亮，梅瑟向海伸手，海水流回原處；埃及人迎著水逃跑的時候，上主將他們投入海中。
28 And the watris turneden ayen, and hiliden the charis, and knyytis of al the oost of Farao, which sueden, and entriden in to the see; sotheli not oon of hem was alyue.
回流的水淹末了法郎的戰車、騎兵和跟著以色列子民來到海中的法郎軍隊，一個人也沒有留下。
29 Forsothe the sones of Israel yeden thorouy the myddis of the drye see, and the watris weren to hem as for a wal, on the riyt side and left side.
但是以色列子民在海中乾地上走過去，水在他們左右好像牆壁。
30 And in that dai the Lord delyuerede Israel fro the hond of Egipcians, and thei sien Egipcians deed on the brynke of the see,
這樣上主在那一天從埃及人手中整救了以色列人。以色列人看見了埃及人的屍首浮在海邊上。
31 and thei seiyen the greet hond which the Lord hadde vsid ayens hem; and the puple dredde the Lord, and thei bileueden to the Lord, and to Moises his seruaunt.
以色列人見上主向埃及人顯示的大能，百姓都敬畏上主，信了上主和他的僕人梅瑟。
