Exodus 15

1 Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song to God, and spoke, saying, Let us sing to the Lord, for he is very greatly glorified: horse and rider he has thrown into the sea.

Lalu Musa dan orang-orang Israel menyanyikan nyanyian ini untuk memuji TUHAN, "Aku mau menyanyi bagi TUHAN, sebab Ia telah menang dengan gemilang. Semua kuda dan penunggangnya dilemparkan-Nya ke dalam laut.

2 He was to me a helper and protector for salvation: this is my God and I will glorify him; my father's God, and I will exalt him.

TUHAN pembelaku yang kuat; Dialah yang menyelamatkan aku. Ia Allahku, aku mau memuji Dia, Allah pujaan nenek moyangku, kuagungkan Dia.

3 The Lord bringing wars to nothing, the Lord [is] his name.

TUHAN adalah pejuang yang perkasa, TUHAN, itulah nama-Nya.

4 He has cast the chariots of Pharao and his host into the sea, the chosen mounted captains: they were swallowed up in the Red Sea.

Tentara Mesir dan semua keretanya dilemparkan-Nya ke dalam laut. Perwira-perwira yang paling gagah tenggelam di Laut Gelagah.

5 He covered them with the sea: they sank to the depth like a stone.

Mereka ditelan laut yang dalam, dan seperti batu turun ke dasarnya.

6 Your right hand, O God, has been glorified in strength; your right hand, O God, has broken the enemies.

Kekuatan-Mu sangat menakjubkan, ya TUHAN, Kaubuat musuh habis berantakan.

7 And in the abundance of your glory you have broken the adversaries to pieces: you sent forth your wrath, it devoured them as stubble.

Dengan keagungan-Mu yang besar Kaubinasakan semua yang melawan Engkau. Kemarahan-Mu berkobar seperti api, dan membakar mereka seperti jerami.

8 And by the breath of your anger the water parted asunder; the waters were congealed as a wall, the waves were congealed in the midst of the sea.

Laut Kautiup, air menggulung tinggi, berdiri tegak seperti tembok, sehingga dasar laut dapat dilalui.

9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoils; I will satisfy my soul, I will destroy with my sword, my hand shall have dominion.

Kata musuh, 'Mereka akan kukejar dan kutangkap, kuhunus pedangku, dan kutumpas mereka. Lalu semua harta mereka kurampas, kubagi-bagikan dan kunikmati sampai puas.'

10 You sent forth your wind, the sea covered them; they sank like lead in the mighty water.

Tetapi TUHAN dengan sekali bernapas mendatangkan bagi Mesir hari yang naas. Mereka tenggelam seperti timah yang berat di dalam gelora air yang dahsyat.

11 Who is like to you among the gods, O Lord? who is like to you? glorified in holiness, marvelous in glories, doing wonders.

Allah mana dapat menandingi Engkau, ya TUHAN Yang Mahamulia dan suci? Siapa dapat membuat keajaiban-keajaiban dan perbuatan besar seperti TUHAN?

12 You stretched forth your right hand, the earth swallowed them up.

Kaurentangkan tangan kanan-Mu, maka lenyaplah musuh ditelan bumi.

13 You have guided in your righteousness this your people whom you have redeemed, by your strength you have called them into your holy resting-place.

Kaupimpin bangsa yang telah Kauselamatkan ini, karena Engkau setia kepada janji-Mu. Dengan kekuatan besar mereka Kaulindungi, dan Kaubimbing ke tanahmu yang suci.

14 The nations heard and were angry, pangs have seized on the dwellers among the Phylistines.

Bangsa-bangsa mendengarnya dan gemetar; orang Filistin dan para pemimpin Edom gempar. Orang Moab yang perkasa menggigil, orang Kanaan berkecil hati.

15 Then the princes of Edom, and the chiefs of the Moabites hasted; trembling took hold upon them, all the inhabitants of Chanaan melted away.

16 Let trembling and fear fall upon them; by the greatness of your arm, let them become as stone; till your people pass over, O Lord, till this your people pass over, whom you have purchased.

Mereka sangat ketakutan menyaksikan kekuatan TUHAN. Waktu umat-Mu lewat, musuh tak kuasa menahan; loloslah bangsa yang telah Kaubebaskan.

17 Bring them in and plant them in the mountain of their inheritance, in your prepared habitation, which you, O Lord, have prepared; the sanctuary, O Lord, which your hands have made ready.

Lalu Israel Kauhantarkan ke tempat yang Kaupilih untuk kediaman-Mu. Mereka menetap di bukit-Mu yang suci, di Rumah yang Kaubangun sendiri.

18 The Lord reigns for ever and ever and ever.

Engkaulah TUHAN, Raja, yang memerintah selama-lamanya."

19 For the horse of Pharao went in with the chariots and horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought upon them the water of the sea, but the children of Israel walked through dry land in the midst of the sea.

Pada waktu orang Israel menyeberangi laut, mereka berjalan di dasarnya yang kering. Tetapi ketika kereta-kereta Mesir dengan kuda dan penunggangnya masuk ke dalam laut, TUHAN membuat airnya mengalir kembali sehingga mereka tenggelam.

20 And Mariam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, having taken a timbrel in her hand—then there went forth all the women after her with timbrels and dances.

Lalu Miryam, seorang nabiah, kakak Harun, mengambil rebananya, dan semua wanita ikut memukul rebana sambil menari.

21 And Mariam led them, saying, Let us sing to the Lord, for he has been very greatly glorified: the horse and rider has he cast into the sea.

Miryam bernyanyi untuk mereka, "Bernyanyilah bagi TUHAN, sebab Ia telah menang dengan gemilang. Semua kuda dan pengendaranya dilemparkan-Nya ke dalam laut."

22 So Moses brought up the children of Israel from the Red Sea, and brought them into the wilderness of Sur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water to drink.

Kemudian Musa membawa bangsa Israel dari Laut Gelagah menuju ke padang gurun Syur. Selama tiga hari mereka berjalan melalui padang gurun tanpa menemukan air.

23 and they came to Merrha, and could not drink of Merrha, for it was bitter; therefore he named the name of that place, Bitterness.

Lalu sampailah mereka di tempat yang bernama Mara, tetapi air di situ pahit sekali, sehingga tak bisa diminum. Sebab itu tempat itu disebut Mara, artinya pahit.

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

Maka orang-orang itu mengomel kepada Musa dan bertanya, "Apa yang akan kita minum?"

25 And Moses cried to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a tree, and he cast it into the water, and the water was sweetened: there he established to him ordinances and judgments, and there he proved him,

Musa berdoa dengan sungguh-sungguh kepada TUHAN, lalu TUHAN menunjukkan kepadanya sepotong kayu. Kayu itu dilemparkan Musa ke dalam air, lalu air itu menjadi tawar, sehingga dapat diminum. Di tempat itu TUHAN memberi peraturan-peraturan kepada mereka, dan di situ juga Ia mencobai mereka.

26 and said, If you will indeed hear the voice of the Lord your God, and do things pleasing before him, and will listen to his commands, and keep all his ordinances, no disease which I have brought upon the Egyptians will I bring upon you, for I am the Lord your God that heals you.

Kata TUHAN, "Taatilah Aku dengan sungguh-sungguh, dan lakukanlah apa yang Kupandang baik; ikutilah semua perintah-Ku. Kalau kamu berbuat begitu, kamu tidak akan Kuhukum dengan penyakit-penyakit yang Kutimpakan kepada orang Mesir. Akulah TUHAN yang menyembuhkan kamu."

27 And they came to Aelim, and there were there twelve fountains of water, and seventy stems of palm-trees; and they encamped there by the waters.

Sesudah itu mereka tiba di tempat yang bernama Elim. Di situ ada dua belas sumber air dan tujuh puluh pohon kurma. Mereka berkemah di dekat air itu.
