The XIIII. Chapter.

A    noteAnd the LORDE spake vnto Moses, and sayde: Speake vnto the children of Israel, and byd them that they turne aboute, ∧ pitch their tentes before the valley of Hyroth, betwixte Migdol ∧ the see towarde Baal Zeph&obar;, and there pitch þe; tentes right ouer by the see. For Pharao shall saye of the children of Israel: They can not tell how to get out of the londe, the wyldernesse hath shut them in. And I wyll harden his hert, þt; he shal folowe after them, ∧ I wil get me honoure vpon Pharao, and vpon all his power. And þe; Egipci&abar;s shal knowe, þt; I am

the LORDE. And they dyd so.

B   And whan it was tolde þe; kinge of Egipte, þt; þe; people fled, his hert ∧ his seruauntes were turned agaynst þe; people, ∧ saide: Why haue we done this, that we haue let Israel go, þt; they shulde not serue vs? And he bounde his charettes fast, and toke his people &wt; him, and toke sixe h&ubar;dreth chosen charettes, and the other charettes besyde that were in Egipte, and the captaynes ouer all his: for the LORDE hardened þe; hert of Pharao kynge of Egipte, that he folowed after the children of Israel. And the children of Israel wente out with an hye hande.

C   And the Egipcians folowed after th&ebar;, ∧ ouertoke them (where they had pitched by þe; see) with horses and charettes, and horsm&ebar;, and with his power, in the valley of Hyrath towarde Baal Zephon. noteAnd whan Pharao came nye them, the children of Israel lift vp their eyes, and beholde, þe; Egipcians wente behinde th&ebar;, and they were sore afrayed, and cried vnto the LORDE.

noteAnd sayde vnto Moses: Were there no graues in Egipte, þt; thou hast brought vs awaye to dye in the wyldernes? Wherfore hast thou done this vnto vs, that thou hast caried vs out of Egipte? Is not this it, that we sayde vnto the in Egipte? Leaue of, ∧ let vs serue the Egipcians: for it were better for vs to serue the Egipcians, then to dye in the wyldernes? Moses sayde vnto the people: note Feare you not, stonde styll, and beholde, what a saluacion the LORDE shall shewe vpon you this daye: note for these Egipcians whom ye se this daye, shall ye neuer se more for euer: the LORDE shal fight for you, onely quyete youre selues.

D   The LORDE sayde vnto Moses: Wherfore criest thou vnto me? Speake vnto þe; children of Israel, þt; they go forwarde. But lift thou vp þi; staff, ∧ stretch out thine h&abar;de ouer þe; see, note ∧ parte it asunder, þt; the children of Israel maye go in thorow þe; middest of it vpon the drye grounde. Beholde, I wyll harden þe; hert of the Egipcians, þt; they shall folowe after you. Thus wyl I get me honoure vpon Pharao, ∧ vpon all his power, vp&obar; his charettes and horsmen: and the Egipcians shal knowe, that I am þe; LORDE, whan I haue gotten me hono&highr; vpon Pharao, vpon his charettes, and vpon his horsmen.

noteThen the angell of God þt; wente before the armies of Israel, remoued, and gat him behynde them: and the cloudy piler remoued also from before them, and stode behinde th&ebar; and came betwixte the armies of the Egipcians and the armies of Israel. It was a darcke cloude, and gaue light that night, so that all the night longe these and they coude not come together.

E    noteWh&abar; Moses now stretched forth his h&abar;de ouer þe; see, the LORDE caused it to passe awaye thorow a mightie eastwynde all that night, and made the see drye, and þe; water deuyded it self a sunder. noteAnd the children of Israel wente in thorow the middest of þe; see vpon the drye grounde: and þe; water was vnto them as a wall, vpon their right hande ∧ vp&obar; their lefte. And þe; Egipci&abar;s folowed, ∧ wente in after th&ebar;, all Pharaos horses, ∧ charettes, ∧ horsm&ebar;, eu&ebar; in to þe; middest of þe; see.

noteNow whan the mornynge watch came, the LORDE loked vp&obar; the armies of the Egipcians out the piler of fire and þe; cloude, ∧ troubled their armies, and smote the wheles from their charettes, ∧ ouerthrew them &wt; a storme. Then sayde the Egipcians: note Let vs flye from Israel, the LORDE fighteth for th&ebar; agaynst the Egipcians.

F   But þe; LORDE saide vnto Moses: Stretch out thyne hande ouer the see, that þe; water maye come agayne vpon the Egipcians, vpon their charettes, and horsmen. Then Moses stretched out his hande ouer the see, and the see came agayne before daye in his course and strength, and the Egipcians fled agaynst it. noteThus the LORDE ouerthrew them in the myddest of the see, so that the water came agayne, and couered þe; charettes and horsmen, and all Pharaos power which folowed after them in to the see, so that there remayned not one of them. noteBut the children of Israel wente drye thorow þe; myddest of the see, and the water was vnto them as a wall vpon their right hande and vpon their lefte.

noteThus the LORDE delyuered Israel in þt; daye from the hande of the Egipcians. And they sawe the Egipcians deed vpon þe; see syde, and the greate hande þt; the LORDE had shewed vpon the Egipcians. And þe; people

feared þe; LORDE, and beleued him, and his seruaunt Moses.
