¹ 第十一年十一月初一日，耶和华的话临到我说：

² 人子啊，因推罗向耶路撒冷说：阿哈，那作众民之门的已经破坏，向我开放；他既变为荒场，我必丰盛。

³ 所以，主耶和华如此说：推罗啊，我必与你为敌，使许多国民上来攻击你，如同海使波浪涌上来一样。

⁴ 他们必破坏推罗的墙垣，拆毁他的城楼。我也要刮净尘土，使他成为净光的磐石。

⁵ 他必在海中作晒网的地方，也必成为列国的掳物。这是主耶和华说的。

⁶ 属推罗城邑的居民（原文是田间的众女；八节同）必被刀剑杀灭，他们就知道我是耶和华。

⁷ 主耶和华如此说：我必使诸王之王的巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒率领马匹车辆、马兵、军队，和许多人民从北方来攻击你推罗。

⁸ 他必用刀剑杀灭属你城邑的居民，也必造台、筑垒、举盾牌攻击你。

⁹ 他必安设撞城锤攻破你的墙垣，用铁器拆毁你的城楼。

¹⁰ 因他的马匹众多，尘土扬起遮蔽你。他进入你的城门，好像人进入已有破口之城。那时，你的墙垣必因骑马的和战车、辎重车的响声震动。

¹¹ 他的马蹄必践踏你一切的街道，他必用刀杀戮你的居民；你坚固的柱子（或译：柱像）必倒在地上。

¹² 人必以你的财宝为掳物，以你的货财为掠物，破坏你的墙垣，拆毁你华美的房屋，将你的石头、木头、尘土都抛在水中。

¹³ 我必使你唱歌的声音止息，人也不再听见你弹琴的声音。

¹⁴ 我必使你成为净光的磐石，作晒网的地方；你不得再被建造，因为这是主耶和华说的。

¹⁵ 主耶和华对推罗如此说：在你中间行杀戮，受伤之人唉哼的时候，因你倾倒的响声，海岛岂不都震动麽？

¹⁶ 那时靠海的君王必都下位，除去朝服，脱下花衣，披上战兢，坐在地上，时刻发抖，为你惊骇。

¹⁷ 他们必为你作起哀歌说：你这有名之城，素为航海之人居住，在海上为最坚固的；平日你和居民使一切住在那里的人无不惊恐；现在何竟毁灭了？

¹⁸ 如今在你这倾覆的日子，海岛都必战兢；海中的群岛见你归於无有就都惊惶。

¹⁹ 主耶和华如此说：推罗啊，我使你变为荒凉，如无人居住的城邑；又使深水漫过你，大水淹没你。

²⁰ 那时，我要叫你下入阴府，与古时的人一同在地的深处、久已荒凉之地居住，使你不再有居民。我也要在活人之地显荣耀（我也……荣耀：或译在活人之地不再有荣耀）。

²¹ 我必叫你令人惊恐，不再存留於世；人虽寻找你，却永寻不见。这是主耶和华说的。

¹¹ 旷野和其中的城邑，并基达人居住的村庄都当扬声；西拉的居民当欢呼，在山顶上呐喊。

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.
