< Keluaran 15 >
1 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.
Then Moses/I sang this song, and the Israeli people sang with him: “I will sing to Yahweh, because he has triumphed gloriously; He has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea!
2 TUHAN pembelaku yang kuat; Dialah yang menyelamatkan aku. Ia Allahku, aku mau memuji Dia, Allah pujaan nenek moyangku, kuagungkan Dia.
Yahweh is the one who makes me strong, and he is the one I sing about. He is the one who has saved me. He is (my God/God, the one I worship), and I will praise him. He is the one my father worshiped, and I will tell [others] how great he is.
3 TUHAN adalah pejuang yang perkasa, TUHAN, itulah nama-Nya.
Yahweh is a warrior; Yahweh is his name.
4 Tentara Mesir dan semua keretanya dilemparkan-Nya ke dalam laut. Perwira-perwira yang paling gagah tenggelam di Laut Gelagah.
He has thrown the king’s chariots and his army into the sea; His best officers all drowned in the Red Sea (OR, Gulf of Suez).
5 Mereka ditelan laut yang dalam, dan seperti batu turun ke dasarnya.
The [water covered them like] a flood; they sank to the bottom like a stone.
6 Kekuatan-Mu sangat menakjubkan, ya TUHAN, Kaubuat musuh habis berantakan.
O Yahweh, your right arm has awesome power; with that power [MTY], O Yahweh, you have crushed/smashed the enemy into pieces.
7 Dengan keagungan-Mu yang besar Kaubinasakan semua yang melawan Engkau. Kemarahan-Mu berkobar seperti api, dan membakar mereka seperti jerami.
You have gloriously defeated your enemies. Because you were angry with them, you have [destroyed them] like a fire burns up straw [SIM].
8 Laut Kautiup, air menggulung tinggi, berdiri tegak seperti tembok, sehingga dasar laut dapat dilalui.
You blew on the sea, and the water piled up high; the water stood up like two walls. In the deepest part of the sea [the water] became thick/solid, [as though] it was frozen.
9 Kata musuh, 'Mereka akan kukejar dan kutangkap, kuhunus pedangku, dan kutumpas mereka. Lalu semua harta mereka kurampas, kubagi-bagikan dan kunikmati sampai puas.'
[Our] enemies said, ‘We will pursue them and catch up to them. We will draw our swords and strike them. After we defeat them, we will divide up the spoils. We will take [from them] all we want.’
10 Tetapi TUHAN dengan sekali bernapas mendatangkan bagi Mesir hari yang naas. Mereka tenggelam seperti timah yang berat di dalam gelora air yang dahsyat.
But you blew on them with your breath, and then the sea covered them. They sank like lead/rocks in the big waves.
11 Allah mana dapat menandingi Engkau, ya TUHAN Yang Mahamulia dan suci? Siapa dapat membuat keajaiban-keajaiban dan perbuatan besar seperti TUHAN?
Yahweh, among their gods, there is no god like you [RHQ]! You are glorious, completely different from all that you made. (There is no god like you!/What god is like you?) [RHQ] There is no one who can perform all kinds of miracles [DOU] like you do [RHQ]!
12 Kaurentangkan tangan kanan-Mu, maka lenyaplah musuh ditelan bumi.
When you stretched out your right hand, the earth swallowed up [our enemies]
13 Kaupimpin bangsa yang telah Kauselamatkan ini, karena Engkau setia kepada janji-Mu. Dengan kekuatan besar mereka Kaulindungi, dan Kaubimbing ke tanahmu yang suci.
You faithfully loved the people you rescued; with your power you are leading them to the land that you have set apart.
14 Bangsa-bangsa mendengarnya dan gemetar; orang Filistin dan para pemimpin Edom gempar. Orang Moab yang perkasa menggigil, orang Kanaan berkecil hati.
The people of [other] nations will hear [what you have done]; and they will tremble. The people in Philistia will be terrified.
The chiefs in Edom will be dismayed. The leaders in Moab will be so afraid, they will shake. All those who live in Canaan will faint.
16 Mereka sangat ketakutan menyaksikan kekuatan TUHAN. Waktu umat-Mu lewat, musuh tak kuasa menahan; loloslah bangsa yang telah Kaubebaskan.
They will be terrified and fearful because of your great strength [MTY]. But they will be as silent as stones until your people march past them, the people you freed from being slaves in Egypt,
17 Lalu Israel Kauhantarkan ke tempat yang Kaupilih untuk kediaman-Mu. Mereka menetap di bukit-Mu yang suci, di Rumah yang Kaubangun sendiri.
to go to [Canaan land]. You will enable them to live [MET] on your hill, at the place that you, O Yahweh, have chosen to be your home, in the (holy place/temple) that you yourself will build.
18 Engkaulah TUHAN, Raja, yang memerintah selama-lamanya."
O Yahweh, you will rule forever!
19 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.
The Israeli people walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground. But when the king’s horses and chariots and horsemen tried to go through the sea, Yahweh caused the water to come back and cover them.”
20 Lalu Miryam, seorang nabiah, kakak Harun, mengambil rebananya, dan semua wanita ikut memukul rebana sambil menari.
Then Miriam, who was Aaron’s older sister and a (prophetess/woman who spoke messages that came directly from God), picked up her tambourine,
21 Miryam bernyanyi untuk mereka, "Bernyanyilah bagi TUHAN, sebab Ia telah menang dengan gemilang. Semua kuda dan pengendaranya dilemparkan-Nya ke dalam laut."
and she sang this song to Yahweh: “Sing to Yahweh, because he has triumphed gloriously [over his enemies]. He has thrown the horses and their riders into the sea.”
22 Kemudian Musa membawa bangsa Israel dari Laut Gelagah menuju ke padang gurun Syur. Selama tiga hari mereka berjalan melalui padang gurun tanpa menemukan air.
Then Moses/I led the Israeli people away from the Red Sea (OR, Gulf of Suez). They/we went to the desert at Shur. They/We walked for three days, but they/we could not find any water.
23 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.
So they/we [went on and] came to a [place named] Marah. [There was] water [there, but] they/we could not drink it, because it was bitter. That is why they named the place Marah, [which is the Hebrew word that means ‘bitter’].
24 Maka orang-orang itu mengomel kepada Musa dan bertanya, "Apa yang akan kita minum?"
The people complained to Moses/me, saying, “What are we going to drink?”
25 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.
So Moses/I prayed earnestly to Yahweh. Then Yahweh showed him/me a tree. So he/I cut off [one of the branches] and threw it into the water, and the water became good to drink. There at Marah, Yahweh gave them various laws to direct their lives. He also tested them there, to determine if they would obey him,
26 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."
by saying, “I am Yahweh, your God. If you will carefully obey me when I speak [to you], and do those things that I know are right, and pay close attention to all the things that I command you, I will keep you from being afflicted by all the diseases that I brought on the Egyptians. Do not forget that I am the one who heals you.”
27 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.
[After they/we left Marah], they/we came to a [place named] Elim. There were twelve springs of water and 70 palm trees there. So they/we camped there.
