Exodus 14

1 Og HE EN talede til Moses og sagde:

2 "Sig til Israeliterne, at de skal vende om og lejre sig ved Pi Hakirot mellem Migdol og Havet; lige over for Bål Zefon skal I lejre eder ved Havet.

3 Farao vil da tænke om Israeliterne, at de er faret vild i Landet, og at Ørkenen har sluttet dem inde;

4 og jeg vil forhærde Faraos Hjerte, så han sætter efter dem, og jeg vil forherlige mig på Farao og hele hans Krigsmagt, og Ægypterne skal kende, at jeg er HE EN!" Og de gjorde således.

5 Da det nu neldtes Ægypterkongen, at Folket var flygtet, skiftede Farao og hans Tjenere Sind over for Folket og sagde: "Hvor kunde vi dog slippe Israeliterne af vor Tjeneste!"

6 Da lod han spænde for sin Vogn og tog sine Krigsfolk med sig;

7 han tog 600 udsøgte Stridsvogne og alle Ægyptens Krigsvogne, alle bemandede med Vognkæmpere.

8 Og HE EN forhærdede Ægypterkongen Faraos Hjerte, så han satte efter Israeliterne; men Israeliterne var draget ud under en stærk Hånds Værn.

9 Og Ægypterne, alle Faraos Heste og Vogne og hans yttere og øvrige Krigsfolk, satte efter dem og indhentede dem, da de havde slået Lejr ved Havet, ved Pi Hakirot over for Ba'al Zefon.

10 Da nu Farao nærmede sig, så Israeliterne op og fik Øje på Ægypterne, der drog efter dem, og de grebes af stor Angst; da råbte Israeliterne til HE EN;

11 og de sagde til Moses: "Er det, fordi der ingen Grave var i Ægypten, at du har fået os ud for at i Ørkenen? Hvad er det dog, du har gjort os, at du førte os ud af Ægypten?

12 Var det ikke det, vi sagde til dig i Ægypten: Lad os i Fred, og lad os blive ved at trælle for Ægypterne! Thi det er bedre for os at trælle for Ægypterne end at i Ørkenen."

13 Men Moses svarede Folket: "Frygt ikke! Hold blot Stand, så skal I se HE ENs Frelse, som han i Dag vil hjælpe eder til, thi som I ser Ægypterne i Dag, skal I aldrig i Evighed se dem mere.

14 HE EN skal stride for eder, men I skal tie!"

15 Da sagde HE EN til Moses: "Hvorfor råber du til mig? Sig til Israeliterne, at de skal bryde op!

16 Løft din Stav og ræk din Hånd ud over Havet og skil det ad i to Dele, så Israeliterne kan vandre gennem Havet på tør Bund.

17 Se, jeg vil forhærde Ægypternes Hjerte, så de følger efter dem, og jeg vil forherlige mig på Farao og hele hans Krigsmagt, på hans Vogne og yttere,

18 og Ægypterne skal kende, at jeg er HE EN, når jeg forherliger mig på Farao, hans Vogne og yttere."

19 Guds Engel, der drog foran Israels Hær, flyttede sig nu og gik bag ved dem; og Skystøtten flyttede sig fra Pladsen foran dem og stillede sig bag ved dem

20 og kom til at stå imellem Ægypternes og Israels Hære; og da det blev mørkt; blev Skystøtten til en Ildstøtte og oplyste Natten. Således kom de ikke hinanden nær hele Natten.

21 Moses rakte da sin Hånd ud over Havet, og HE EN drev Havet bort med en stærk Østenstorm, der blæste hele Natten, og han gjorde Havet til tørt Land. Og Vandet delte sig.

22 Da gik Israeliterne midt igennem Havet på tør Bund, medens Vandet stod som en Mur på begge Sider af dem.

23 Og Ægypterne, alle Faraos Heste,Vogne og yttere, satte efter dem og forfulgte dem midt ud i Havet.

24 Men ved Morgenvagtens Tid skuede HE EN fra Ild og Skystøtten hen imod Ægypternes Hær og bragte den i Uorden;

25 og han stoppede Vognenes Hjul, så de havde ondt ved at få dem frem. Da sagde Ægypterne: "Lad os flygte for Israel, thi HE EN kæmper for dem imod Ægypten!"

26 Men HE EN sagde til Moses: " æk din Hånd ud over Havet, så skal Vandet vende tilbage over Ægypterne, deres Vogne og yttere!"

27 Da rakte Moses sin Hånd ud over Havet; og Havet vendte tilbage til sit sædvanlige Leje ved Morgenens Frembrud, medens de flygtende Ægyptere kom lige imod det, og HE EN drev Ægypterne midt ud i Havet.

28 Da vendte Vandet tilbage og overskyllede Vognene og ytterne i hele Faraos Krigsmagt, som havde forfulgt dem ud i Havet; ikke en eneste af dem blev tilbage.

29 Men Israeliterne var gået gennem Havet på tør Bund, medens Vandet stod som en Mur på begge Sider af dem.

30 Og HE EN frelste på den dag Israel af Ægypternes Hånd, og Israel så Ægypterne ligge døde ved Havets Bred.

31 Da så Israel den Stordåd, HE EN havde udført mod Ægypterne; og Folket frygtede HE EN, og de troede på HE EN og på hans Tjener Moses.

8178. And Jehovah said unto Moses. That this signifies exhortation, is evident from the signification of “Jehovah said,” when the subject treated of is elevation and liberation from temptation, as being exhortation (see n. 7033, 7090).

Exodus 14

勉強

   

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 "Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall encamp opposite it by the sea.

3 Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, 'They are entangled in the land. The wilderness has shut them in.'

4 I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he will follow after them; and I will get honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies; and the Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh." They did so.

5 It was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed towards the people, and they said, "What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?"

6 He prepared his chariot, and took his army with him;

7 and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over all of them.

8 Yahweh hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand.

9 The Egyptians pursued after them: all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen, and his army; and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baal Zephon.

10 When Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were very afraid. The children of Israel cried out to Yahweh.

11 They said to Moses, "Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you treated us this way, to bring us forth out of Egypt?

12 Isn't this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, 'Leave us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians?' For it were better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness."

13 Moses said to the people, "Don't be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of Yahweh, which he will work for you today: for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall never see them again.

14 Yahweh will fight for you, and you shall be still."

15 Yahweh said to Moses, "Why do you cry to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward.

16 Lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go into the midst of the sea on dry ground.

17 I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them: and I will get myself honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.

18 The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh, when I have gotten myself honor over Pharaoh, over his chariots, and over his horsemen."

19 The angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them, and stood behind them.

20 It came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud and the darkness, yet gave it light by night: and the one didn't come near the other all the night.

21 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and Yahweh caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.

22 The children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.

23 The Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the midst of the sea: all of Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.

24 It happened in the morning watch, that Yahweh looked out on the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and of cloud, and confused the Egyptian army.

25 He took off their chariot wheels, and they drove them heavily; so that the Egyptians said, "Let's flee from the face of Israel, for Yahweh fights for them against the Egyptians!"

26 Yahweh said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come again on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen."

27 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it. Yahweh overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

28 The waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen, even all Pharaoh's army that went in after them into the sea. There remained not so much as one of them.

29 But the children of Israel walked on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.

30 Thus Yahweh saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.

31 Israel saw the great work which Yahweh did to the Egyptians, and the people feared Yahweh; and they believed in Yahweh, and in his servant Moses.
