4 Pharaohs chariots and his host hath he cast …nto the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.
4 He Pharos charets and his hoast hath cast into the sea:
Now in the red sea also drown'd his chosen captains be.
5 The depths have covered them, they sank …nto the bottome as a stone.
5 The fearfull depths they likewise have, them covered eachone,
…nto the bottom headlongs they then sank as doth a stone.
6 Thy right hand, O Lord is become glori…us in power; thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
6 Thy right hand Lord it is become in power glorious all,
Thy right hand Lord the enemy hath dash'd in pieces small.
7 And in the greatnesse of thine excellencie thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee; thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.
7 Who'gainst thee rose them thou ov'rthrew, in great excellency,
Thy wrath thou sentest forth which them consum'd as stubble dry.
8 And with the blast of thy nostrils, the waters were gathered together: the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
8 The waters at thy nostrils blast, together gathred were:
Floods stood as heaps, in heart of sea, the depths congeal'd were there.
9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoile: my lust shall be satisfied upon them:
9 The en'my said, I will pursue, I'le overtake anone,
I'le part the spoile; my lust shall be them satisfi'd upon;
I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
10 Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them, they sank as lead in the mighty waters.
I'le draw my sword, my hand it shall destroy them all indeed:
10 Thy wind blew, seas them cov… they in great waters sank as lead:
11 Who is like unto thee, O Lord, amongst …he gods? who is like thee, glorious in holinesse, fearfull in praises, doing wonders?
11 Who's like thee Lord among the gods who's like thee glorious
In holinesse, fearfull in praise and doing wonders thus?
12 Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
13 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed:
12 Thy right hand then thou stretched out, earth swallow'd them at last.
13 In mercy thou the folk ledst forth which thou redeemed hast:
Thou hast guided them in thy strength unto …hy holy habitation
14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.
Thou hast them to thy holy house in thy strength guided well.
14 Men shall hear, fear, grief shall them seiz in Palestine that dwell:
15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed: the mighty men of Moah trembling shall take hold upon them: all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
15 The Dukes of Edom then amaz'd, strong Moab trembling shall
On them take hold, the Cananites they melt away shall all.
16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them, by the greatnes of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone, till thy people passe over,
16 By greatnesse of thine arm… strong fear, dread, shall on them fall,
They shall be still ev'n as a stone till passe thy people all.
O Lord, till the people passe over, which thou hast purchased.
O Lord till that the people do passe ov're with great renown,
Which thou by thine Almighty hand hast purchas'd as thine own.
17 Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place O Lord, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in.
17 In hill of thine inheritance Lord thou shalt bring them well,
And plant them in the place which thou hast made for them to dwell.
In the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.
O Lord ev'n in the Sanctuary which thy hand stablish'dall:
18 The Lord for ever and also for ever reigne he shall.
19 For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots, and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought again the waters of the sea, upon them:
19 For Pharos horse with charets went and horsmen in the sea,
The Lord again sea waters brought upon them fearfully.
But the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.
But those that were the children then of Israel by discent,
They in the midst of all the sea on dry land safely went.
