12 “You stretch
out your right hand,
and the earth swallows your
enemies.
13 In your unfailing love you will
lead
the people you have redeemed.
In your strength you will guide
them
to your holy dwelling.
14 The nations will hear and
tremble;
anguish will grip the people of
Philistia.
15 The chiefs of Edom will be
terrified,
the leaders of Moab will be seized with
trembling,
the people[a] of
Canaan will melt away;
16 terror and
dread will fall on them.
By the power of your arm
they will be as still as a
stone—
until your people pass
by, Lord,
until the people you bought[b] pass
by.
17 You will bring them in and
plant them
on the mountain of your
inheritance—
the place, Lord, you made for your dwelling,
the sanctuary, Lord, your hands
established.
18 “The Lord reigns
for ever and ever.”
19 When Pharaoh’s horses, chariots and horsemen[c] went into the sea, the Lord brought the waters of the sea back over them, but the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground. 20 Then Miriam the prophet, Aaron’s sister, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women followed her, with timbrels and dancing. 21 Miriam sang to them:
“Sing to
the Lord,
for he is highly exalted.
Both horse and driver
he has hurled into the sea.”
