15:19 For the horses of Pharaoh came with his chariots and his footmen into the sea,
and the Lord brought back the waters of the sea on them,
but the Israelites walked on dry land in the middle of the sea.”
15:20 Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a hand-drum in her hand, and all the women went out after her with hand-drums and with dances. 1 15:21 Miriam sang in response 2 to them, “Sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and its rider he has thrown into the sea.” 3
15:22 4 Then Moses led Israel to journey 5 away from the Red Sea. They went out to the Desert of Shur, walked for three days 6 into the desert, and found no water. 15:23 Then they came to Marah, 7 but they were not able to drink 8 the waters of Marah, because 9 they were bitter. 10 (That is 11 why its name was 12 Marah.)
15:24 So the people murmured 13 against Moses, saying, “What can 14 we drink?” 15:25 He cried out to the Lord, and the Lord showed him 15 a tree. 16 When Moses 17 threw it into the water, the water became safe to drink. There the Lord 18 made for them 19 a binding ordinance, 20 and there he tested 21 them. 15:26 He said, “If you will diligently obey 22 the Lord your God, and do what is right 23 in his sight, and pay attention 24 to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, then all 25 the diseases 26 that I brought on the Egyptians I will not bring on you, for I, the Lord, am your healer.” 27
15:27 Then they came to Elim, 28 where there were twelve wells of water and seventy palm trees, and they camped there by the water.
