For Pharao went in on horseback with
his chariots and horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought the
waters of the sea upon them. And the children of Israel went on
dry land thorow the middest of the sea. And Miriam a prophetess
the sister of Aaron took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women
came out after her with timbrels in a dance. And Miriam sang
before them: sing ye unto the LORD, for he is become glorious
indeed: the horse and his rider hath he overthrown in the sea.
Moses brought Israel from the redde {reed} sea, and they went out
into the wilderness of Sur. And they went three days long in the
wilderness, and could find no water. At the last they came to
Mara: but they could not drink of the waters for bitterness, for
they were bitter. Therefore the name of the place was called Mara.
Then the people murmured against Moses, saying: what shall we
drink? And Moses cried unto the LORD, and he shewed him a tree:
{tre} and he cast it into the water, and they waxed sweet. There
he made them an ordinance and a law, and there he tempted them and
said: If ye will hearken unto the voice of the LORD your God, and
will do that which is right in his sight and will give an ear unto
his commandments, and keep all his ordinances: then will I put
none of these diseases upon thee which I brought upon the
Egyptians, for I am the LORD thy surgeon.
