15 The Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me? Tell the people of Israel to go forward. 16 ^xLift up your staff, and ^ystretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, that ^zthe people of Israel may go through the sea on dry ground. 17 And I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they shall go in after them, and I will get glory over Pharaoh and all his host, his chariots, and his horsemen. 18 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I have gotten glory over Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.”
