Keluaran 14
1 Kemudian TUHAN berkata kepada Musa,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 “Perintahkanlah umat Israel untuk kembali dan berkemah di tepi laut di Pi Hahirot, yang terletak di antara kota Migdol dan Laut Merah, berhadapan dengan Baal Zefon.
'Speak unto the sons of Israel, and they turn back and encamp before Pi-Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal-Zephon; over-against it ye do encamp by the sea,
3 Nanti raja Mesir akan berkata, ‘Umat Israel sudah tersesat dan terjebak di padang belantara.’
and Pharaoh hath said of the sons of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut upon them;
4 Aku akan mengeraskan hati raja sehingga dia mengejar kalian. Saat itulah Aku akan dimuliakan, ketika Aku mengalahkan raja Mesir beserta seluruh pasukannya, dan orang Mesir akan tahu bahwa Akulah TUHAN.” Maka umat Israel berkemah di sana sesuai perintah TUHAN.
and I have strengthened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath pursued after them, and I am honoured on Pharaoh, and on all his force, and the Egyptians have known that I [am] Jehovah;' and they do so.
5 Sewaktu raja Mesir diberitahu bahwa umat Israel sudah melarikan diri, raja dan para pejabatnya berubah pikiran lalu berkata, “Mengapa kita membiarkan umat Israel pergi?! Sekarang kita kehilangan budak!”
And it is declared to the king of Egypt that the people hath fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants is turned against the people, and they say, 'What [is] this we have done? that we have sent Israel away from our service.'
6 Dia pun menyuruh supaya kereta perang disiapkan, juga para tentara yang akan ikut bersamanya.
And he harnesseth his chariot, and his people he hath taken with him,
7 Dia membawa 600 kereta perang pilihan bersama semua kereta perang lain yang ada di Mesir. Setiap kereta perang dikendarai oleh seorang perwira.
and he taketh six hundred chosen chariots, even all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over them all;
8 TUHAN mengeraskan hati raja Mesir sehingga dia mengejar umat Israel, yang sudah pergi keluar dengan gagah berani.
and Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursueth after the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel are going out with a high hand,
9 Seluruh pasukan Mesir, termasuk semua pasukan berkuda, kereta, dan pengendaranya, mengejar umat Israel, dan mereka berhasil menyusul sampai perkemahan Israel di tepi laut dekat Pi Hahirot, di depan Baal Zefon.
and the Egyptians pursue after them, and all the chariot horses of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his force, overtake them, encamping by the sea, by Pi-Hahiroth, before Baal-Zephon.
10 Ketika umat Israel melihat raja Mesir dan pasukannya mendekat, mereka sangat ketakutan dan berseru-seru minta tolong kepada TUHAN.
And Pharaoh hath drawn near, and the sons of Israel lift up their eyes, and lo, the Egyptians are journeying after them, and they fear exceedingly, and the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah.
11 Kata mereka kepada Musa, “Apakah di Mesir tidak ada kuburan, sehingga kamu membawa kami untuk mati di padang belantara ini! Kamu sudah mencelakakan kami dengan membawa kami keluar dari Mesir!
And they say unto Moses, 'Because there are no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in a wilderness? what is this thou hast done to us — to bring us out from Egypt?
12 Bukankah dulu di Mesir, kami pernah berkata kepadamu, ‘Jangan ikut campur! Biarkanlah kami tetap menjadi budak orang Mesir. Lebih baik hidup sebagai budak orang Mesir daripada mati di padang belantara!’”
Is not this the word which we spake unto thee in Egypt, saying, Cease from us, and we serve the Egyptians; for better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in a wilderness?'
13 Tetapi Musa menjawab mereka, “Jangan takut! Berdirilah teguh dan lihatlah yang akan TUHAN lakukan hari ini untuk menyelamatkan kita! Kita tidak akan melihat lagi pasukan Mesir yang kita hadapi hari ini.
And Moses saith unto the people, 'Fear not, station yourselves, and see the salvation of Jehovah, which He doth for you to-day; for, as ye have seen the Egyptians to-day, ye add no more to see them — to the age;
14 TUHAN akan berperang bagi kita, dan kita tidak perlu melakukan apa-apa.”
Jehovah doth fight for you, and ye keep silent.'
15 TUHAN berkata kepada Musa, “Mengapa kamu berseru minta tolong kepada-Ku? Perintahkanlah umat Israel untuk berjalan maju!
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'What? thou criest unto Me — speak unto the sons of Israel, and they journey;
16 Angkatlah tongkatmu dan arahkanlah ke atas laut. Laut akan terbelah agar umat Israel bisa berjalan menyeberanginya di atas tanah kering.
and thou, lift up thy rod, and stretch out thy hand towards the sea, and cleave it, and the sons of Israel go into the midst of the sea on dry land.
17 Aku akan mengeraskan hati orang Mesir sehingga mereka mengejar umat Israel ke tengah laut, dan Aku akan dimuliakan ketika Aku mengalahkan raja Mesir beserta seluruh pasukannya, termasuk pasukan berkuda, kereta, dan pengendaranya.
'And I — lo, I am strengthening the heart of the Egyptians, and they go in after them, and I am honoured on Pharaoh, and on all his force, on his chariots, and on his horsemen;
18 Orang Mesir akan melihat kemuliaan-Ku dan tahu bahwa Akulah TUHAN ketika Aku mengalahkan mereka.”
and the Egyptians have known that I [am] Jehovah, in My being honoured on Pharaoh, on his chariots, and on his horsemen.'
19 Kemudian malaikat yang sebelumnya berjalan di depan umat Israel berpindah ke belakang mereka. Demikian juga tiang awan pindah dari depan ke belakang,
And the messenger of God, who is going before the camp of Israel, journeyeth and goeth at their rear; and the pillar of the cloud journeyeth from their front, and standeth at their rear,
20 sehingga berada di antara perkemahan pasukan Mesir dan perkemahan umat Israel. Ketika hari menjelang malam, tiang awan berubah menjadi tiang api yang menerangi. Dengan demikian, pasukan Mesir tidak dapat mendekati umat Israel sepanjang malam itu.
and cometh in between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and the cloud and the darkness are, and he enlighteneth the night, and the one hath not drawn near unto the other all the night.
21 Kemudian Musa mengarahkan tongkatnya ke atas laut, dan TUHAN membuat angin timur bertiup sangat kencang sepanjang malam sehingga air laut terbelah dua dan dasar laut menjadi kering.
And Moses stretcheth out his hand towards the sea, and Jehovah causeth the sea to go on by a strong east wind all the night, and maketh the sea become dry ground, and the waters are cleaved,
22 Umat Israel berjalan di atas tanah yang kering menyeberangi laut, sementara sisi kiri dan kanan mereka dipagari oleh tembok air.
and the sons of Israel go into the midst of the sea, on dry land, and the waters [are] to them a wall, on their right and on their left.
23 Seluruh pasukan Mesir, termasuk semua pasukan berkuda, kereta, dan pengendaranya, mengejar umat Israel hingga ke tengah laut.
And the Egyptians pursue, and go in after them (all the horses of Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen) unto the midst of the sea,
24 Menjelang fajar, TUHAN, yang berada di dalam tiang api dan awan, melihat ke bawah kepada pasukan Mesir lalu mengacaukan mereka.
and it cometh to pass, in the morning watch, that Jehovah looketh unto the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubleth the camp of the Egyptians,
25 Dia membuat roda-roda kereta tentara Mesir macet sehingga mereka susah maju. Kata mereka, “Mari kita lari dari sini! Dewa Israel sedang berperang untuk umat Israel melawan kita!”
and turneth aside the wheels of their chariots, and they lead them with difficulty, and the Egyptians say, 'Let us flee from the face of Israel, for Jehovah is fighting for them against the Egyptians.'
26 TUHAN berkata kepada Musa, “Arahkanlah tongkatmu ke atas laut, supaya air laut berbalik dan menutupi semua pasukan Mesir.”
And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Stretch out thy hand toward the sea, and the waters turn back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.'
27 Maka pada waktu fajar sesudah umat Israel menyeberang, Musa mengarahkan tongkatnya ke atas laut, dan air laut menyatu kembali seperti semula. Pasukan Mesir berusaha melarikan diri, tetapi TUHAN menenggelamkan mereka di tengah laut.
And Moses stretcheth out his hand towards the sea, and the sea turneth back, at the turning of the morning, to its perennial flow, and the Egyptians are fleeing at its coming, and Jehovah shaketh off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea,
28 Air laut tiba-tiba berbalik dan menutupi semua pasukan berkuda dan pengendara kereta, bahkan semua pasukan raja Mesir yang mengejar umat Israel ke tengah laut. Tidak ada seorang pun yang selamat.
and the waters turn back, and cover the chariots and the horsemen, even all the force of Pharaoh, who are coming in after them into the sea — there hath not been left of them even one.
29 Demikianlah umat Israel sudah menyeberangi laut itu dengan berjalan di atas tanah yang kering, dipagari oleh tembok air di sisi kiri dan kanan mereka.
And the sons of Israel have gone on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters [are] to them a wall, on their right and on their left;
30 Pada hari itu, TUHAN menyelamatkan umat Israel dari pasukan Mesir, dan orang Israel melihat mayat-mayat tentara Mesir terdampar di pantai.
and Jehovah saveth Israel in that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel seeth the Egyptians dead on the sea-shore,
31 Ketika umat Israel melihat betapa besarnya kuasa TUHAN terhadap pasukan Mesir, mereka pun hormat dan takut kepada TUHAN, dan percaya kepada Dia serta kepada Musa, hamba-Nya.
and Israel seeth the great hand with which Jehovah hath wrought against the Egyptians, and the people fear Jehovah, and remain stedfast in Jehovah, and in Moses His servant.
