Exodus: 15-17
Ex:15:1: Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto
the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed
gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
Ex:15:2: The LORD is my strength and song, and
he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation;
my father's God, and
I will exalt him.
Ex:15:3: The LORD is a man of war: the LORD
is his name.
Ex:15:4: Pharaoh's chariots and his
host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the
Red sea.
Ex:15:5: The depths have covered
them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.
Ex:15:6: Thy right
hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed
in pieces the enemy.
Ex:15:7: And
in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up
against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed
them as stubble.
Ex:15:8: And
with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods
stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed
in the heart of the sea.
Ex:15:9: The
enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust
shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword,
my hand shall destroy them.
Ex:15:10: Thou
didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty
waters.
Ex:15:11: Who
is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who
is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
Ex:15:12: Thou
stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
Ex:15:13: Thou
in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast
guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.
Ex:15:14: The
people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants
of Palestina.
Ex:15:15: Then
the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall
take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan
shall melt away.
Ex:15:16: Fear
and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be
as still as a stone; till thy people pass over,
O LORD, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
Ex:15:17: Thou
shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in
the place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee
to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
Ex:15:18: The
LORD shall reign for ever and ever.
Ex:15:19: For
the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the
sea, and the LORD brought again the waters of the
sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst
of the sea.
Ex:15:20: And
Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and
all the women went out after her with timbrels and with
dances.
Ex:15:21: And
Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously;
the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
Ex:15:22: So
Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness
of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness,
and found no water.
Ex:15:23: And
when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they
were bitter: therefore the name of it was called
Marah.
Ex:15:24: And
the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
Ex:15:25: And
he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast
into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there
he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,
Ex:15:26: And
said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and
wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt
give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none
of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for
I am the LORD that healeth thee.
Ex:15:27: And
they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten
palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.

Ex:16:1: And
they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children
of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between
Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing
out of the land of Egypt.
Ex:16:2: And
the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and
Aaron in the wilderness:
Ex:16:3: And
the children of Israel said unto them, Would to God we had died by the hand
of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the
flesh pots, and when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought
us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.
Ex:16:4: Then
said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and
the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every
day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.
Ex:16:5: And
it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which
they bring in; and it shall be twice as much as they
gather daily.
Ex:16:6: And
Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel, At even, then ye shall
know that the LORD hath brought you out from the
land of Egypt:
Ex:16:7: And
in the morning, then ye shall see the glory of the LORD; for that he heareth
your murmurings against the LORD: and what are we,
that ye murmur against us?
Ex:16:8: And
Moses said, This shall be, when the LORD shall give you in the evening flesh
to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for
that the LORD heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against him: and
what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the
LORD.
Ex:16:9: And
Moses spake unto Aaron, Say unto all the congregation of the children of Israel,
Come near before the LORD: for he hath heard
your murmurings.
Ex:16:10: And
it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation of the children
of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and,
behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud.
Ex:16:11: And
the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Ex:16:12: I
have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying,
At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall
be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God.
Ex:16:13: And
it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and
in the morning the dew lay round about the host.
Ex:16:14: And
when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness
there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost
on the ground.
Ex:16:15: And
when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna:
for they wist not what it was. And Moses said
unto them, This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat.
Ex:16:16: This
is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, Gather of it every man according
to his eating, an omer for every man, according
to the number of your persons; take ye every man for them which are in
his tents.
Ex:16:17: And
the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less.
Ex:16:18: And
when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over,
and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered
every man according to his eating.
Ex:16:19: And
Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning.
Ex:16:20: Notwithstanding
they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning,
and it bred worms, and stank: and Moses
was wroth with them.
Ex:16:21: And
they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: and when
the sun waxed hot, it melted.
Ex:16:22: And
it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two
omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation
came and told Moses.
Ex:16:23: And
he said unto them, This is that which the LORD hath said, To morrow is the
rest of the holy sabbath unto the LORD: bake that which
ye will bake to day, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth
over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.
Ex:16:24: And
they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither
was there any worm therein.
Ex:16:25: And
Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a sabbath unto the LORD: to day
ye shall not find it in the field.
Ex:16:26: Six
days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it
there shall be none.
Ex:16:27: And
it came to pass, that there went out some of the people on the seventh day
for to gather, and they found none.
Ex:16:28: And
the LORD said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my
laws?
Ex:16:29: See,
for that the LORD hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the
sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man
in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
Ex:16:30: So
the people rested on the seventh day.
Ex:16:31: And
the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like coriander
seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers
made with honey.
Ex:16:32: And
Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commandeth, Fill an omer of it
to be kept for your generations; that they may see the
bread wherewith I have fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth
from the land of Egypt.
Ex:16:33: And
Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna therein, and
lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations.
Ex:16:34: As
the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
Ex:16:35: And
the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land
inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came unto
the borders of the land of Canaan.
Ex:16:36: Now
an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.

Ex:17:1: And
all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness
of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment
of the LORD, and pitched in Rephidim: and there was no water for the people
to drink.
Ex:17:2: Wherefore
the people did chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye
with me? wherefore do ye tempt the LORD?
Ex:17:3: And
the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses,
and said, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up
out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?
Ex:17:4: And
Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people? they
be almost ready to stone me.
Ex:17:5: And
the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the
elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest
the river, take in thine hand, and go.
Ex:17:6: Behold,
I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite
the rock, and there shall come water out of
it, that
the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders
of Israel.
Ex:17:7: And
he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the chiding
of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the
LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not?
Ex:17:8: Then
came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
Ex:17:9: And
Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to
morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the
rod of God in mine hand.
Ex:17:10: So
Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron,
and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
Ex:17:11: And
it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when
he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
Ex:17:12: But
Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he
sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands,
the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands
were steady until the going down of the sun.
Ex:17:13: And
Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
Ex:17:14: And
the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse
it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out
the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
Ex:17:15: And
Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovah-nissi:
Ex:17:16: For
he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek
from generation to generation.
