Éxodo 15
1 Entonces Moisés y los hijos de Israel cantaron este cántico a Yahvé. Dijeron así: “Cantaré a Yahvé por su altísima gloria; arrojó al mar al caballo y a su jinete.
Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to Yahweh, and said, “I will sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea.
2 Yahvé es mi fortaleza y (el objeto) de mi canción. Él me ha salvado; Él es mi Dios, a quien celebraré, el Dios de mi padre, a quien he de ensalzar.
Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
3 El Señor es un guerrero poderoso; Yahvé es su nombre.
Yahweh is a man of war. Yahweh is his name.
4 Ha precipitado en el mar los carros del Faraón y su ejército; la flor de sus capitanes se hundió en el Mar Rojo.
He has cast Pharaoh’s chariots and his army into the sea. His chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea.
5 Los cubrió el abismo; como una piedra cayeron al fondo.
The deeps cover them. They went down into the depths like a stone.
6 Tu diestra, Yahvé, es admirable por su poder; tu diestra, Yahvé, aplasta al enemigo.
Your right hand, Yahweh, is glorious in power. Your right hand, Yahweh, dashes the enemy in pieces.
7 En tu grandeza sin medida derribas a los que contra Ti se levantan, desencadenas tu ira que los consume como hojarasca.
In the greatness of your excellency, you overthrow those who rise up against you. You send out your wrath. It consumes them as stubble.
8 Soplaron tus narices y se apiñaron las aguas; se pararon las olas como un dique, los abismos se cuajaron en medio del mar.
With the blast of your nostrils, the waters were piled up. The floods stood upright as a heap. The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9 Perseguiré, alcanzaré, había dicho el enemigo; repartiré despojos, se saciará mi alma; desenvainaré mi espada, los destruirá mi mano.
The enemy said, ‘I will pursue. I will overtake. I will divide the plunder. My desire will be satisfied on them. I will draw my sword. My hand will destroy them.’
10 Pero con tu viento soplaste y los cubrió el mar; se hundieron como plomo en las temibles aguas.
You blew with your wind. The sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.
11 ¿Quién como Tú, Yahvé, entre los dioses? ¿Quién, como Tú, glorioso en santidad, terrible en prodigios, hacedor de maravillas?
Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12 Extendiste tu diestra, y los engulló la tierra.
You stretched out your right hand. The earth swallowed them.
13 Guiaste en tu misericordia al pueblo por Ti redimido; con tu poder lo condujiste a la morada de tu santidad.
“You, in your loving kindness, have led the people that you have redeemed. You have guided them in your strength to your holy habitation.
14 Lo oyeron los pueblos temblando; se amedrentó la gente de Filistea;
The peoples have heard. They tremble. Pangs have taken hold of the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 los príncipes de Edom se estremecieron; temblaron los valientes de Moab y trepidaron todos los moradores de Canaán.
Then the chiefs of Edom were dismayed. Trembling takes hold of the mighty men of Moab. All the inhabitants of Canaan have melted away.
16 Cayó sobre ellos pavor y espanto; por la grandeza de tu brazo enmudecieron como una piedra, hasta que pasó tu pueblo, Yahvé, hasta que pasó el pueblo que Tú adquiriste.
Terror and dread falls on them. By the greatness of your arm they are as still as a stone, until your people pass over, Yahweh, until the people you have purchased pass over.
17 Tú los condujiste y los plantaste en el monte de tu herencia; en el lugar que Tú, oh Yahvé, preparaste para tu sede; en el Santuario, Señor, que fundaron tus manos.
You will bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, the place, Yahweh, which you have made for yourself to dwell in: the sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established.
18 Yahvé reinará por siempre jamás.”
Yahweh will reign forever and ever.”
19 Porque cuando los caballos del Faraón y sus carros y su caballería entraron en el mar, Yahvé hizo volver sobre ellos las aguas marinas, en tanto que los hijos de Israel pasaron a pie enjuto por medio del mar.
For the horses of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Yahweh brought back the waters of the sea on them; but the children of Israel walked on dry land in the middle of the sea.
20 También María, la profetisa, hermana de Aarón, tomó en su mano un tamboril, y todas las mujeres salieron en pos de ella, con tamboriles y danzando.
Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a tambourine in her hand; and all the women went out after her with tambourines and with dances.
21 Y María les repetía: “Cantad a Yahvé por su altísima gloria; arrojó al mar al caballo y a su jinete.”
Miriam answered them, “Sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea.”
22 Moisés hizo partir a los hijos de Israel del Mar Rojo, y se dirigieron hacia el desierto de Sur, donde caminaron tres días en el desierto sin encontrar agua.
Moses led Israel onward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
23 Luego llegaron a Mará, mas no pudieron beber el agua, por ser amarga. Por eso llamaron (a ese lugar) Mará.
When they came to Marah, they couldn’t drink from the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore its name was called Marah.
24 Y murmuró el pueblo contra Moisés, diciendo: “¿Qué vamos a beber?”
The people murmured against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?”
25 Entonces clamó Moisés a Yahvé, y Yahvé le mostró un madero que Moisés echó en el agua, y el agua se volvió dulce. Allí Yahvé le dio (a Israel) leyes y estatutos, y allí lo probó,
Then he cried to Yahweh. Yahweh showed him a tree, and he threw it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there he tested them.
26 y dijo: “Si de veras escuchas la voz de Yahvé, tu Dios, y haces lo que es recto a sus ojos, dando oídos a sus mandamientos y guardando todos sus preceptos, no traeré sobre ti ninguna de las plagas que envié sobre los egipcios; porque Yo soy Yahvé, el que te sana.
He said, “If you will diligently listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am Yahweh who heals you.”
27 Después llegaron a Elim, donde había doce fuentes de agua y setenta palmeras, y acamparon allí junto a las aguas.
They came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees. They encamped there by the waters.
