Then Moshe and the B’nei Yisrael sang this song to Adonoy and they said, I will sing to Adonoy for He is most high, horse and its rider He threw into the sea.

Then sang Moshe and the children of Yisra᾽el this song to the Lord, and spoke, saying, I will sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider has he thrown into the sea.

Then Moses and the children of Israel would sing [i.e., it entered their heart to sing] this song to the L-rd, and they said: I shall sing to the L-rd for He is exalted [over all the] exalted: horse and its rider [joined together] He cast into the sea.

The strength and retribution of God was the cause of my deliverance. This is my Almighty and I will glorify Him; the God of my father and I will exalt Him.

The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will praise him; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.

The strength and vengeance of the L-rd has been salvation to me. This is my G-d [(His glory was so manifest that they pointed to it)] and I will extol Him; the G-d of my father [(Not I, but my forefathers are the origin of this hallowing)], and I will exalt Him.

Adonoy is the master of war, Adonoy is His Name.

The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name.

The L-rd is the Master of war; the L-rd is His name [his "weapon," with which He wages war].

Pharaoh’s chariots and army He hurled into the sea; his elite officers were sunk in the Reed Sea.

Par῾o’s chariots and his host has he thrown into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Sea of Suf.

The chariots of Pharaoh and his host He cast into the sea, and the élite of his officers were mired in the Red Sea, [the sea-bed turning into slime, measure for measure for their belaboring Israel with lime and bricks.]

The depths covered them, they sank into the shadowy depths like stone.

The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom like stone.

[He mired them there] so that the waters should [return and] cover them; they dropped to the depths like stone.

Your right hand Adonoy, is adorned with power, Your right hand Adonoy, crushes the enemy.

Thy right hand, O Lord, is glorious in power: thy right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces.

Your right hand, O L-rd, is grand in power. Your right hand, O L-rd, breaks the foe.

In Your great majesty, You destroy Your opponents; You send forth Your fury, it consumes them like straw.

And in the greatness of thy excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou didst send forth thy anger, which consumed them as stubble.

And [if Your right hand, alone, breaks the foe, then, when it is uplifted] in the greatness of Your grandeur, [how much more so do] You destroy those who rise up against You [i.e., those who rise up against Israel. And, if in the greatness of Your grandeur alone, they are destroyed, then,] when You send forth Your wrath, [how much more so] does it consume them as stubble!

Through the wind [breath] of Your nostrils, the waters were heaped up, flowing water stood like a wall; the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea.

And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were piled up, the floods stood upright like a heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

And with the breath of Your nostrils [i.e., in the heat of Your anger], the waters were [heated solid and] piled up. The waves stood up as a wall. The depths were congealed [into stone, and the Egyptians were dashed against it] in the fury of the sea.

The enemy said, “I will pursue [them], I will overtake [them], I will divide the spoils, I will satisfy myself; I will draw my sword, my hand will destroy them.”

The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

The foe (i.e., Pharaoh) said [to his people in urging them to pursue Israel:] I shall pursue, I shall overtake, I shall divide (the) spoil [with my officers and servants]. My spirit [i.e., my desire] will be filled with them. I shall draw forth my sword; my hand will impoverish them.

You made Your wind blow, the sea covered them; they sank like lead in the mighty waters.

Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them, they sank as lead in the mighty waters.

You blew with Your breath — the sea covered them; they plummeted like lead in the mighty waters.

Who is like You among the mighty, Adonoy! Who is like You, adorned in holiness, Awesome in praise, doing wonders?

Who is like thee, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

Who is like You among the mighty, O L-rd? Who is like You, majestic in holiness, dreaded in praise [i.e., men dreading to praise You lest they fall short in Your praises], doing wonders!

You extended Your right hand, the earth swallowed them.

Thou didst stretch out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.

You inclined Your right hand [and they fell — all being contained in Your hand] — the earth swallowed them up [(whence it is derived that they merited burial for vindicating G-d's judgment upon them)].

In Your kindliness You led the people You redeemed; with Your might You guided them to Your holy dwelling place.

Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people whom thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength to thy holy habitation.

You have led forth in Your kindness this people whom You have redeemed. You have guided them in Your strength to Your holy habitation.

Peoples heard and they tremble, terror gripped the inhabitants of Philistia.

The people shall hear, and be afraid: trembling shall take hold of the inhabitants of Peleshet.

Peoples heard — they tremble; quaking has seized the inhabitants of Plasheth [(for having killed the sons of Ephraim, who "pushed" the redemption prematurely and were killed by the inhabitants of Gath (I Chronicles 7:21)].

Then the chiefs of Edom panicked, the mighty men of Moav were seized with trembling; all the inhabitants of Canaan melted away.

Then the chiefs of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Mo᾽av, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Kena῾an shalt melt away.

Then the chiefs of Edom were confounded; the mighty ones of Moav were seized with trembling. [Even though they were not the "target," they were mortified by Israel's ascendancy]; all the inhabitants of Canaan melted [in fear of destruction and conquest].

Horror and dread fall upon them, at the greatness of Your arm, they are still as stone; until Your people cross over, Adonoy, until Your people You acquired cross over.

Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thy arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O Lord, till the people pass over, whom thou hast acquired.

There fell upon them dread [(upon the distant — see Joshua 2:9-10)] and terror [(upon the near)]; by the greatness of Your arm they will be (struck) still as stone. Until Your people, O L-rd, pass over [the Arnon]; until there pass over [the Jordan] this people, O L-rd, whom You have acquired [endearingly] (to Yourself).

You will bring them and plant them on the mountain of Your inheritance, the place for Your habitation, which You, Adonoy have made; the Sanctuary—my Master—[which] Your hands established.

Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thy inheritance, in the place, O Lord, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.

You will bring them and You will plant them [("them" and not "us" — Moses prophesying in effect that he himself would not enter the land)] in the mountain of Your inheritance, aligned with Your habitation [the Throne of Glory], which You have made, O L-rd — the sanctuary, O L-rd, which Your [two] hands have established [(the sanctuary being more beloved of the L-rd than the world, which He created with one hand (Psalms 48:13). And when will it be rebuilt with two hands? At that time when… (18)]

Adonoy will reign forever and ever.

The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.

the L-rd will reign for ever and ever.

When Pharaoh came with his horse and chariot and his cavalry into the sea, Adonoy returned the waters of the sea on them; and the B’nei Yisrael walked on dry land in the midst of the sea.

For the horse of Par῾o went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought the waters of the sea back upon them; but the children of Yisra᾽el went on dry land in the midst of the sea.

When the horse of Pharaoh came with its chariot and its riders into the sea, and the L-rd turned back upon them the waters of the sea, and the children of Israel walked on the dry land in the midst of the sea —

Miriam the prophetess, sister of Aharon, took the drum in her hand; and all the women followed her with drums and dancing.

And Miryam the prophetess, the sister of Aharon, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.

Then Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron [(Miriam having prophesied the birth of Moses, etc., while she was only the sister of Aaron)] took the timbrel in her hand [(the righteous women of that generation having taken timbrels out of Egypt in their certitude that G-d would work miracles for Israel)], and all the women went out after her with timbrels and dances.

Miriam led them in the response: “Sing to Adonoy for He is most high; horse and its rider He hurled into the sea.”

And Miryam answered them, Sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider has he thrown into the sea.

And Miriam answered to them [(Moses chanted to the men, and they responded after him, and Miriam chanted to the women (1):] "Sing to the L-rd, for He is exalted [over all the] exalted; horse and its rider He cast into the sea."

Moshe led [B’nei] Yisrael away from the Reed Sea, and they went out into the desert of Shur, they traveled for three days in the desert and they did not find any water.

So Moshe brought Yisra᾽el from the Sea of Suf, and they went out to the wilderness of Shur; and they marched three days in the wilderness, and found no water.

And Moses made Israel journey from the Red Sea [against their wills (the Egyptians having adorned their horses with gold, silver, and precious stones, which the Israelites lingered to collect, "the spoils of the sea" exceeding the spoils of Egypt)], and Israel went out to the desert of Shur, and they traveled three days in the desert without finding any water.

They came to Marah but they could not drink the water of Marah because it was bitter. The place was therefore called Marah [bitter].

And when they came to Mara, they could not drink of the waters of Mara, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Mara.

And they came to Marah, and they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter (marim) — wherefore it is called Marah.

The people complained to Moshe saying, “What shall we drink?”

And the people murmured against Moshe, saying, What shall we drink?

And the people caviled against Moses, saying: "What shall we drink!"

He [Moshe] cried out to Adonoy, Adonoy showed him a tree and he threw it into the water, and the water became sweet. There He set before them statutes and ordinances, and there He tested them.

And he cried to the Lord; and the Lord showed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he tested them,

And he cried out to the L-rd, and the L-rd showed him a tree; and he cast it into the waters and the waters were sweetened. There He made for them statute and judgment [(He gave them for study some of the areas of Torah — Sabbath, the red heifer, jurisdiction)], and there He tried them [(and "discovered" their stiff-neckedness, their not imploring Moses, but caviling against him)].

He said [to them,] “If you vigilantly obey the voice of Adonoy, your God, and do what is upright in His eyes, give ear to His commandments, and preserve all His statutes; [then], every sickness that I brought upon Egypt, I will not bring upon you, for I am Adonoy, Who heals you.

and he said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon Miżrayim: for I am the Lord that heals thee.

And He said: If you pay heed to the voice of the L-rd your G-d, [taking upon yourselves to perform the mitzvoth], and you do what is just in His eyes, [performing them], and you give ear to His mitzvoth, [being attentive to their details], and you keep all of His statutes, [decrees having no ostensible reason, and, therefore, "vulnerable to attack" by the evil inclination (e.g., the prohibitions against wearing kilaim and eating swine, the institution of the red heifer, and the like)] — then [if you observe My mitzvoth], all of the illness which I placed upon Egypt I will not place upon you, for I am the L-rd who heals you [by "prescribing" (Torah and mitzvoth) against this illness].
