1 I reče Gospod Mojsiju govoreći: 2 Kaži sinovima Izrailjevim neka saviju i stanu u logor pred Pi-Airot između Migdola i mora prema Vel-Sefonu; prema njemu neka stanu u logor pokraj mora. 3 Jer će Faraon reći za sinove Izrailjeve: Zašli su u zemlju, zatvorila ih je pustinja. 4 I učiniću da otvrdne srce Faraonu, te će poći u poteru za vama, i ja ću se proslaviti na njemu i na svoj vojsci njegovoj, i Misirci će poznati da sam ja Gospod. I učiniše tako. 5 A kad bi javljeno caru misirskom da je pobegao narod, promeni se srce Faraonovo i sluga njegovih prema narodu, te rekoše: Šta učinismo, te pustismo Izrailja da nam ne služi? 6 I upreže u kola svoja, i uze narod svoj sa sobom. 7 I uze šest stotina kola izabranih i šta još beše kola misirskih, i nad svima vojvode. 8 I Gospod učini te otvrdnu srce Faraonu caru misirskom, i pođe u poteru za sinovima Izrailjevim, kad sinovi Izrailjevi otidoše pod rukom visokom. 9 I teravši ih Misirci stigoše ih, sva kola Faraonova, konjici njegovi i vojska njegova, kad behu u logoru na moru kod Pi-Airota prema Vel-Sefonu. 10 I kad se približi Faraon, podigoše sinovi Izrailjevi oči svoje a to Misirci idu za njima, i uplašiše se vrlo, i povikaše sinovi Izrailjevi ka Gospodu. 11 I rekoše Mojsiju: Zar ne beše grobova u Misiru, nego nas dovede da izginemo u pustinji? Šta učini, te nas izvede iz Misira. 12 Nismo li ti govorili u Misiru i rekli: Prođi nas se, neka služimo Misircima? Jer bi nam bolje bilo služiti Misircima nego izginuti u pustinji. 13 A Mojsije reče narodu: Ne bojte se, stanite pa gledajte kako će vas Gospod izbaviti danas; jer Misirce koje ste videli danas, nećete ih nikada više videti do veka. 14 Gospod će se biti za vas, a vi ćete ćutati. 15 A Gospod reče Mojsiju: Što vičeš k meni? Kaži sinovima Izrailjevim neka idu. 16 A ti digni štap svoj i pruži ruku svoju na more, i rascepi ga, pa neka idu sinovi Izrailjevi posred mora suvim. 17 I gle, ja ću učiniti da otvrdne srce Misircima, te će poći za njima; i proslaviću se na Faraonu i na svoj vojsci njegovoj, na kolima njegovim i na konjicima njegovim. 18 I Misirci će poznati da sam ja Gospod, kad se proslavim na Faraonu, na kolima njegovim i na konjicima njegovim. 19 I podiže se anđeo Gospodnji, koji iđaše pred vojskom izrailjskom, i otide im za leđa; i podiže se stup od oblaka ispred njih, i stade im za leđa. 20 I došav među vojsku misirsku i vojsku izrailjsku beše onim oblak mračan a ovim svetljaše po noći, te ne pristupiše jedni drugima celu noć. 21 I pruži Mojsije ruku svoju na more, a Gospod uzbi more vetrom istočnim, koji jako duvaše celu noć, i osuši more, i voda se rastupi. 22 I pođoše sinovi Izrailjevi posred mora suvim, i voda im stajaše kao zid s desne strane i s leve strane. 23 I Misirci terajući ih pođoše za njima posred mora, svi konji Faraonovi, kola i konjici njegovi. 24 A u stražu jutarnju pogleda Gospod na vojsku misirsku iz stupa od ognja i oblaka, i smete vojsku misirsku. 25 I pobaca točkove kolima njihovim, te ih jedva vucijahu. Tada rekoše Misirci: Bežimo od Izrailja, jer se Gospod bije za njih s Misircima. 26 A Gospod reče Mojsiju: Pruži ruku svoju na more, neka se vrati voda na Misirce, na kola njihova i na konjike njihove. 27 I Mojsije pruži ruku svoju na more, i dođe opet more na silu svoju pred zoru, a Misirci nagoše bežati prema moru; i Gospod baci Misirce usred mora. 28 A vrativši se voda potopi kola i konjike sa svom vojskom Faraonovom, što ih god beše pošlo za njima u more, i ne osta od njih nijedan. 29 I sinovi Izrailjevi iđahu posred mora suvim; i stajaše im voda kao zid s desne strane i s leve strane. 30 I izbavi Gospod Izrailja u onaj dan iz ruku misirskih; i vide Izrailj mrtve Misirce na bregu morskom. 31 I vide Izrailj silu veliku, koju pokaza Gospod na Misircima, i narod se poboja Gospoda, i verova Gospodu i Mojsiju sluzi Njegovom.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The sea was divided; a way was made in the midst of the waves; their enemies following, were covered by the same waves through which they passed: and yet when Moses, the man of God, had departed from their sight, they asked for an idol, and said, "Make us gods to go before us; for this man has deserted us." …

Since Moses too was pained, and prayed in this way and was heard; for this cause also God said unto him, "Wherefore criest thou unto me." And Hannah too again, her voice not being heard, accomplished all she wished, forasmuch as her heart cried out.

Therefore this darkness of the body has been placed between us and God, like the cloud of old between the Egyptians and the Hebrews; and this is perhaps what is meant by "He made darkness His secret place," namely our dulness, through which few can see even a little.

Some "were baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea." And it is admitted that faith even before now has been put in men; for "The people believed God and his servant Moses." Why then, it is asked, do we, on account of faith and of baptism, exalt and magnify the Holy Spirit so far above creation, when …

For who else save Moses smote the Egyptians with so many and mighty plagues, as when He led the people through the parted waters of the sea, when he obtained manna for them from heaven in their hunger, and water from the rock in their thirst?
