Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and they said: “Let us sing to the Lord, for he has been gloriously magnified: the horse and the rider he has cast into the sea
The Lord is my strength and my praise, and he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I shall glorify him. He is the God of my father, and I shall exalt him
The Lord is like a fighting man. Almighty is his name
The chariots of Pharaoh, and his army, he has cast into the sea; his elect leaders have been submerged in the Red Sea
The abyss has covered them. They descended into the depths like a stone
Your right hand, O Lord, has been magnified in strength. Your right hand, O Lord, has struck down the enemy

In your mercy, you have been a leader to the people whom you have redeemed. And in your strength, you have carried them to your holy dwelling place

You shall lead them in and plant them, on the mountain of your inheritance, in your most firm dwelling place, which you have formed, O Lord, your sanctuary, O Lord, which your hands have made firm
The Lord will reign in eternity and beyond

And they arrived at Marah. They were unable to drink the waters of Marah because they were bitter. Therefore, he also established a name befitting the place, calling it ‘Marah,’ that is, bitterness
And the people murmured against Moses, saying: “What shall we drink?
So he cried out to the Lord, who showed him a tree. And when he had cast it into the waters, they were turned into sweetness. In that place, he established instructions for him, and also judgments. And he tested him there
saying: “If you will listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his sight, and obey his commands, and keep all his precepts, I will not bring upon you any of the distress that I imposed on Egypt. For I am the Lord, your healer.
