⁶ And I brought your fathers out of Egypt; and ye came unto the sea; and the Egyptians pursued after your fathers with chariots and horsemen unto the Red Sea. ⁷ And they cried unto the Lord, and he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and he brought the sea over them, and covered them; and your eyes saw what I had done on Egypt; and ye dwelt in the wilderness many days.

⁶ But Adoni-bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes. ⁷ And Adoni-bezek said, Seventy kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered food under my table: as I have done, so hath God requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.

⁷ And the Philistines were afraid; for they said, God is come into the camp.

¹¹ And it happened on the morrow, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and they smote the ‘Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it came to pass, that those that remained were scattered, and no two among them were left together.

³¹ And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, This is the king of Israel. And they encompassed him to fight; and Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him; and God induced them to go away from him.

¹⁵ And he said, Listen ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus hath said the Lord unto you, Be ye not afraid and be not dismayed because of this great multitude; for not unto you belongeth the battle, but unto God.

¹⁷ Ye shall not need to fight in this place: stand firmly, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, and be not dismayed; tomorrow go out to meet them, and the Lord will be with you.

²⁰ And they rose up early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Thekoa’: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood forward and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; believe in the Lord your God, and ye will have permanence; believe his prophets, and ye will prosper.

⁴ Arise; for this matter is obligatory upon thee; and we will be with thee: be strong, and do it. ⁵ Then arose ‘Ezra, and caused the princes of the priests, the Levites, and of all Israel, to swear to do according to this word. And they swore.

^{20 (4:14)} In what place then ye hear the sound of the cornet, thither must ye assemble unto us: our God will fight for us.

⁹ And thou didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and their cry didst thou hear by the Red Sea; ¹⁰ And thou didst display signs and wonders on Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for thou knewest that they had dealt presumptuously against them; and thou didst thus make thyself a name, as it is this day. ¹¹ And the sea didst thou divide before them, so that they passed through the midst of the sea on dry land; and their pursuers didst thou throw into the deeps, like a stone in mighty waters.

²⁰ But the eyes of the wicked shall fail, and the means of escape will vanish from them, and their sole hope shall be the breathing out of their soul.

²⁴ If he flee from the iron weapon, the brazen bow will strike him through.

¹³ But thou sayest, “What doth God know? can he judge behind the darkness?

¹⁵ Therefore am I terrified at his presence: I will reflect, and be in dread of him. ¹⁶ Still God hath made timid my heart, and the Almighty hath terrified me;

¹² By his power he split in pieces the sea, and by his understanding he crushed its pride:

²² And God will cast evil upon him, and bare no pity: out of his hand his wealth will surely escape.

²⁰ In a moment will they die, and in the midst of the night; people are moved, and pass away: and the mighty will be removed without a human hand.

²⁹ When he now granteth rest, who will condemn him! and when he hideth his face, who can behold him? whether it be against a nation, or against one man, it is the same:

⁸ And who closed up with doors the sea, when, issuing forth, it came out of the deep bosom of the earth? ⁹ When I made the clouds its garment, and thick fog its swaddling-cloth, ¹⁰ And when I decreed for it my law, and set for it bars and doors, ¹¹ And said, Thus far mayest thou come, but no farther; and here shall be stayed thy strength in the pride of thy waves?

^{13 (18:14)} And the Lord thundered in the heavens, and the Most High uttered forth his voice, with hail-stones and coals of fire. ^{14 (18:15)} And he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot forth lightnings, and discomfited them.

^{7 (20:8)} Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will invoke the name of the Lord our God.

¹ Of David. The Lord is my light and my salvation; of whom shall I be afraid? the Lord is the fortress of my life; of whom shall I have dread? ² When evil-doers come near against me to eat up my flesh, my assailants and my enemies at me: then do they stumble and fall.

^{17 (34:18)} Those cry, and the Lord heareth, and from all their distresses he delivereth them.

¹ To the chief musician: by the sons of Korach, upon ‘Alamoth, a song. ^(46:2) God is our protection and strength, a help in distresses, very readily found. ^{2 (46:3)} Therefore will we not fear, even when the earth is transformed, and when mountains are moved into the heart of the seas; ^{3 (46:4)} When the waters thereof roar and foam, when mountains quake before his majesty. Selah.

^{9 (46:10)} He causeth wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in pieces; he burneth wagons in the fire.

^{5 (48:6)} They indeed saw—and so they were astonished; they were terrified, they were confounded.

³ Our God is coming, and will not keep silence: a fire devoureth before him, and round him there rageth a mighty storm.

^{5 (53:6)} There were they terrified with terror where there was no terror; for God had scattered the bones of those that encamped against thee: thou didst put them to shame, because God had rejected them.

^{10 (58:11)} The righteous will rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he will bathe his steps in the blood of the wicked.

^{10 (59:11)} The God who showeth me kindness will go before me: God will let me see my desire upon those who regard me with envy.

⁶ He changed the sea into dry land: through the river they went on foot: there did we rejoice in him.

⁶ He changed the sea into dry land: through the river they went on foot: there did we rejoice in him. ⁷ He ruleth by his might for ever; his eyes look upon the nations: the rebellious—these shall not be exalted. Selah.

^{12 (68:13)} The kings of the armies flee away—flee away: yet she that tarried at home divideth the spoil.

^{17 (68:18)} The chariots of God are two myriads; thousands of angels follow him: the Lord is among them: so is Sinai holy among mountains.

¹¹ Saying, “God hath forsaken him: pursue and seize him: for there is none to deliver.”

¹³ It was thou that didst divide by thy strength the sea: thou brokest in pieces the heads of the crocodiles on the waters.

^{6 (76:7)} From thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, lie in deep sleep both chariot and horse.

^{16 (77:17)} The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they shook: also the depths trembled. ^{17 (77:18)} The clouds poured out water; the skies sent forth thunder: also thy arrows sped along. ^{18 (77:19)} The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind; lightnings gave light to the world; the earth trembled and quaked, ^{19 (77:20)} Through the sea led thy way, and thy path was through mighty waters, and thy footsteps could not be known.

^{19 (77:20)} Through the sea led thy way, and thy path was through mighty waters, and thy footsteps could not be known. ^{20 (77:21)} Thou didst lead like a flock thy people by means of Moses and Aaron.

¹³ He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the waters stand upright as a wall.

⁵² But he caused his own people to depart like flocks, and guided them like a drove in the wilderness. ⁵³ And he led them in safety, so that they felt no dread; but the sea covered over their enemies.

⁵³ And he led them in safety, so that they felt no dread; but the sea covered over their enemies.

¹³ For thy kindness is great toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the grave of the lower world.

⁸ Only with thy eyes shalt thou behold it, and see the recompense of the wicked.

^{9 (92:10)} For, lo, thy enemies, O Lord, for, lo, thy enemies shall perish: all the workers of wickedness shall be scattered. ^{10 (92:11)} But thou exaltest my horn like that of a reem: I am anointed with fresh oil. ^{11 (92:12)} And my eye looketh on the punishment of those that regard me with envy: of the evildoers that rise up against me my ears shall bear it.

³² He who looketh down on the earth, and she trembleth; who toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.

²⁵ He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilely with his servants.

⁷ Our fathers did not reflect on thy wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the multitude of thy kindnesses; but rebelled at the sea, even at the Red Sea.

⁷ Our fathers did not reflect on thy wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the multitude of thy kindnesses; but rebelled at the sea, even at the Red Sea. ⁸ Nevertheless he saved them for the sake of his name, to make known his might.

¹⁰ And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. ¹¹ And the waters covered their adversaries: not one of them was left. ¹² Then believed they in his words, they sang his praise. ¹³ Speedily they forgot his works, they waited not for his counsel;

⁴⁴ Nevertheless he looked on when they were in distress, when he heard their entreaty.

⁶ Then they cried unto the Lord when they were in distress, and out of their afflictions he delivered them.

¹³ But when they cry unto the Lord when they are in distress, he saveth them out of their afflictions;

²⁸ And they cried unto the Lord when they were in distress, and he brought them out of their afflictions.

³ The sea beheld it, and fled: the Jordan was driven backward. ⁴ The mountains skipped like wethers, the hills like lambs. ⁵ What aileth thee, O sea, that thou fleest? thou, O Jordan, that thou art driven backward?

¹²⁰ My flesh trembleth shudderingly from dread of thee, and of thy decrees am I afraid.

¹³ To him who divided the Red Sea into parts; for to eternity endureth his kindness;

¹⁵ But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea; for to eternity endureth his kindness.

² Thou indeed knowest my sitting down and my rising up, thou understandest my thinking while yet afar off.

⁴ For, while there is not a word on my tongue, lo, thou, O Lord, knowest it entirely.

¹⁸ But the path of the righteous is as the early morning light, that shineth more and more brightly until the height of noonday. ¹⁹ The way of the wicked is like darkness: they know not against what they stumble.

³ This is an evil among all things that are done under the sun, that there is one occurrence for all, and that also the heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and that madness is in their heart while they live, and after this they go to the dead.

¹¹ The looks of human pride shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bent down: and exalted shall be the Lord alone on that day. ¹² For there is a day of judgment unto the Lord of hosts over every proud and lofty one; and over every exalted one, that he be brought low;

² And it was told unto the house of David, saying, Syria is encamped with Ephraim; and his heart trembled, with the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are shaken before the wind.

¹² Call ye not a conspiracy all that this people may call a conspiracy, and what it feareth shall ye not fear, and be not terrified thereat. ¹³ The Lord of hosts, him shall ye sanctify; and let him be your fear, and let him be your terror. ¹⁴ And he will be for a sanctuary; but also for a stone of stumbling and for a rock to fall over unto both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

²⁶ And the Lord shall lift up a scourge over him like at the smiting of Midian at the rock of ‘Oreb: and as his staff was lifted over the sea, so will he carry him off after the manner of Egypt.

²⁴ Sworn hath the Lord of hosts, saying, Surely as I have purposed, so doth it come to pass; and as I have resolved, so shall it occur: ²⁵ To break Asshur in my own land, and upon my mountains will I tread him under foot; then shall his yoke be removed from off them, and his burden from off their shoulders. ²⁶ This is the resolve that is resolved over all the earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations. ²⁷ For the Lord of hosts hath resolved, and who shall frustrate it? and it is his hand which is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?

³ The confiding mind wilt thou keep in perfect peace; because he trusteth in thee.

¹⁶ Lord, in trouble have they sought thee, they poured out earnest prayers when thy chastening was upon them.

¹⁵ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, the Holy One of Israel, In repose and rest shall ye be helped; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength; and ye would not.

⁴ For thus hath said the Lord unto me, Just as the lion or the young lion growleth over his prey, against whom is called forth the company of shepherds, of whose voice he is not afraid, and is not depressed because of their multitude: thus will the Lord come down, to fight on mount Zion and on its hill. ⁵ As fluttering birds, so will the Lord of hosts shield Jerusalem; shielding and delivering; sparing and preserving.

⁴ Say to the timid of heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God, with vengeance will he come, with God’s recompense; it is he who will come and save you.

²⁴ Through thy servants hast thou blasphemed the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots am I indeed come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down its tall cedars, the choice of its fir-trees: and I will enter into the height of its summit, the forest of its fruitful soil.

¹⁰ Fear thou not, for I am with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy God; I strengthen thee, yea, I help thee, yea, I uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. ¹¹ Behold, ashamed and confounded shall be all that were incensed against thee; they shall be as naught and perish—the men that strive with thee. ¹² Thou wilt seek them, and shalt not find them, the men that contend with thee; they shall be as naught and as nothing, the men that make war against thee. ¹³ For I the Lord thy God lay hold of thy right hand; I am he who saith unto thee, Fear not, I help thee. ¹⁴ Fear not, thou worm Jacob, ye few men of Israel: I myself help thee, saith the Lord, and thy redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.

² Whenever thou passest through the waters, I am with thee; and through the rivers,—they shall not overflow thee: whenever thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be scorched; neither shall the flame burn on thee.

¹¹ I, I am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.

¹⁵ I, even I, have spoken it, I have also called him: I have brought him, and he shall be prosperous on his way.

¹⁰ Art thou not it that dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; that rendered the depths of the sea a road for the redeemed to pass through?

¹² I, I am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldst be afraid of a mortal that must die, and of a son of man who will wither as the grass?

¹² I, I am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldst be afraid of a mortal that must die, and of a son of man who will wither as the grass? ¹³ And thou forgettest the Lord, thy Maker, who hath spread out the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and thou dreadest continually, all the day, because of the fury of the oppressor, whenever he aimeth to destroy: and where is now the fury of the oppressor?

¹³ And thou forgettest the Lord, thy Maker, who hath spread out the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and thou dreadest continually, all the day, because of the fury of the oppressor, whenever he aimeth to destroy: and where is now the fury of the oppressor?

¹⁵ For I am the Lord thy God, who stirreth up the sea that its waves roar: the Lord of hosts is his name.

⁹ In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them; in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bore them, and he carried them all the days of old.

¹² That displayed by the right hand of Moses his glorious arm; that divided the water before them, to make unto himself an everlasting name?

¹² That displayed by the right hand of Moses his glorious arm; that divided the water before them, to make unto himself an everlasting name? ¹³ That led them through the deeps, as a horse through the wilderness, that they should not stumble?

¹³ That led them through the deeps, as a horse through the wilderness, that they should not stumble?

²³ Truly deceptive was what we hoped for from the hills, and the multitude on the mountains; truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel.

¹⁰ For I heard the defaming of many, angry assemblies on every side, “Tell, and we will tell of him.” All the men who ought to seek my welfare, watch for my fall; saying, “Peradventure he may he enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we will then take our revenge on him.” ¹¹ But the Lord is with me as a mighty powerful one; therefore my persecutors will stumble, and they will not prevail: they will be greatly ashamed, for they will not prosper; it is an everlasting confusion which will never be forgotten.

²³ O inhabitress of Lebanon, that makest thy nest in the cedars, how full of grace wilt thou be when pangs come upon thee, the pain as of a woman in travail!

³⁹ Therefore, behold, I am here, and I will tear you completely away, and I will cast you off, and the city that I have given to you and to your fathers, out of my presence;

¹⁰ And all the princes had hearkened, with all the people, who had entered into the covenant, that every one should dismiss his man-servant, and every one his maid-servant, free, that no one should exact labor of them any more: and they had obeyed, and dismissed them. ¹¹ But they had turned afterward, and they had brought back the men-servants and the maid-servants whom they had dismissed as free, and had subjected them to become men-servants and maid-servants. ¹² And the word of the Lord then came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, ¹³ Thus hath said the Lord, the God of Israel,—I myself made a covenant with your fathers on the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondmen, saying, ¹⁴ At the end of seven years shall ye dismiss every man his brother the Hebrew, who may have been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, then shalt thou dismiss him from thee; but your fathers hearkened not unto me, and inclined not their ear. ¹⁵ And ye had turned this day, and done what is right in my eyes, to proclaim freedom every man to his neighbor; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house over which my name is called; ¹⁶ But ye have turned again, and profaned my name, and ye have brought back every man his man-servant, and every man his woman-servant, whom ye had dismissed as free at their pleasure, and have subjected them to be unto you for men-servants and for women-servants. ¹⁷ Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Ye indeed have not hearkened unto me, to proclaim freedom, every one to his brother, and every one to his neighbor: behold, I proclaim a freedom over you, saith the Lord, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you a horror unto all the kingdoms of the earth.

¹ The word that came to Jeremiah for all the Jews who dwell in the land of Egypt, who dwell at Migdol, and at Thachpanches, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying,

¹⁴ Announce ye in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and in Thachpanches: say ye, Stand fast, and prepare thyself; for the sword devoureth round about thee.

²¹ And I strike down with thee the horse and his rider; and I strike down with thee the chariot and its rider;

²⁶ It is good that one should wait and this in silence for the salvation of the Lord.

⁸ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I, also I am against thee, and I will execute judgments in the midst of thee before the eyes of the nations.

³ And thou shalt say, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal! Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains, and to the hills, to the brooks, and to the valleys, Behold, I, even I, will bring over you the sword, and I will destroy your high-places.

⁹ But I acted for the sake of my name, so as not to profane it before the eyes of the nations, in the midst of whom they were; because I had made myself known unto them before their eyes, to bring them forth out of the land of Egypt.

²² And thou shalt say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon, and I will be honored in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I execute judgments on her, and will be sanctified on her.

¹⁰ Therefore, behold, I will be against thee, and against thy streams, and I will render the land of Egypt a mass of ruins, a waste, and a wilderness, from Migdol to Seveneh even up to the border of Ethiopia.

¹¹ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I am here, and I will both inquire for my flocks, and search for them.

²⁰ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal unto them, Behold, I am here, and I will judge between the fat lamb and the lean lamb.

¹⁰ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, It will also come to pass, at the same time, that things will come into thy mind, and thou wilt entertain an evil device; ¹¹ And thou wilt say, I will go up over the land of open towns; I will come against those that are careless, that dwell in safety, all of whom dwell without walls, and have neither bars nor gates,

¹⁷ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Art thou not he of whom I have spoken in ancient days through means of my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days many years, that I would bring thee against them?

¹³ Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them as a renown on the day that I glorify myself, saith the Lord Eternal.

^{30 (4:27)} The king commenced, and said, Is not this Babylon the great, that I myself have built for a royal residence by the might of my power, and for the honor of my majesty? ^{31 (4:28)} The word was still in the king’s mouth, when there fell a voice from heaven, saying, To thee it is said, O king Nebuchadnezzar, The kingdom departeth from thee. ^{32 (4:29)} And from men will they drive thee away, and with the beasts of the field shall thy dwelling be; herbs like oxen will they suffer thee to eat, and seven times shall elapse over thee: until thou wilt know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he pleaseth. ^{33 (4:30)} At the same hour the word was fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar; and from men was he driven away, and herbs like oxen had he to eat, and with the dew of heaven was his body made wet: till his hair was grown like eagles’ feathers, and his nails were like birds’ claws.— ^{34 (4:31)} But at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up my eyes unto heaven, and my understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and glorified the Everliving, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and whose kingdom is over every generation; ^{35 (4:32)} And by whom all the inhabitants of the earth are regarded as nought; and who according to his pleasure doth with the host of heaven and the inhabitants of the earth; while there is none that can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? ^{36 (4:33)} At the same time my understanding returned unto me; and with the glory of my kingdom, my honor and my splendor returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought for me: and I was replaced in my kingdom, and additional greatness was added unto me. ^{37 (4:34)} Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and glorify the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and whose ways are justice; and who is able to bring low those that walk in pride.

¹⁷ Ephraim is bound to idols: let him alone.

¹⁴ For I am as a lion unto Ephraim, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I myself will tear in pieces and go away; I will bear away, and none shall deliver.

⁴ Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt: and no god but me shalt thou know, and there is no saviour beside me.

⁹ Thou hast destroyed thyself, O Israel; for against me, against thy helper didst thou rebel.

¹⁴ And I will kindle a fire within the walls of Rabbah, which shall devour her palaces, with shouting on the day of battle, with a storm on the day of the tempest;

¹⁹ As if a man were to flee from a lion, and a bear should meet him; and he enter into the house, and lean his hand against the wall, and a serpent should bite him.

¹ I saw the Lord standing upon the altar; and he said, Smite the capital, that the sills may quake; and break them in pieces over the head of all of them; and their posterity will I slay with the sword: there shall not flee away from them one that fleeth, and there shall not escape from them one that is saved.

³ And now, O Lord, take, I pray thee, my soul from me; because it is better for me to die, than to live.

⁸ And it came to pass, when the sun arose, that God made ready a hot east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he became faint; and he wished for himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.

⁸ Was the Lord wroth against the rivers? yea, was against the rivers thy anger kindled? was against the sea thy wrath that thou rodest upon thy horses, thy chariots of victory!

⁸ Was the Lord wroth against the rivers? yea, was against the rivers thy anger kindled? was against the sea thy wrath that thou rodest upon thy horses, thy chariots of victory! ⁹ Laid quite bare is thy bow, like severe rods of punishment goeth forth thy word, Selah: into rivers thou splittest the earth. ¹⁰ The mountains saw thee, they trembled; the flowing waters passed along: the deep issued forth its voice, the height lifted up its hands.

¹³ Thou wentest forth to the assistance of thy people, to the assistance of thy anointed: thou didst wound the head out of the house of the wicked, destroy the foundation with the high-towering walls. Selah.

^{5 (2:9)} But I—I will be unto her, saith the Lord, a wall of fire round about, and for glory will I be in the midst of her.
