1 И сказал Господь Моисею, говоря:
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 скажи сынам Израилевым, чтобы они обратились и расположились станом пред Пи-Гахирофом, между Мигдолом и между морем, пред Ваал-Цефоном; напротив его поставьте стан у моря.
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall encamp opposite it by the sea.
3 И скажет фараон [народу своему] о сынах Израилевых: они заблудились в земле сей, заперла их пустыня.
3 Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, ‘They are entangled in the land. The wilderness has shut them in.’
4 А Я ожесточу сердце фараона, и он погонится за ними, и покажу славу Мою на фараоне и на всем войске его; и познают [все] Египтяне, что Я Господь. И сделали так.
4 I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will follow after them; and I will get honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies; and the Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh.” They did so.
5 И возвещено было царю Египетскому, что народ бежал; и обратилось сердце фараона и рабов его против народа сего, и они сказали: что это мы сделали? зачем отпустили Израильтян, чтобы они не работали нам?
5 The king of Egypt was told that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed toward the people, and they said, “What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?”
6 [Фараон] запряг колесницу свою и народ свой взял с собою;
6 He prepared his chariot, and took his army with him;
7 и взял шестьсот колесниц отборных и все колесницы Египетские, и начальников над всеми ими.
7 and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, with captains over all of them.
8 И ожесточил Господь сердце фараона, царя Египетского [и рабов его], и он погнался за сынами Израилевыми; сыны же Израилевы шли под рукою высокою.
8 Yahweh hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand.
9 И погнались за ними Египтяне, и все кони с колесницами фараона, и всадники, и всё войско его, и настигли их расположившихся у моря, при Пи-Гахирофе пред Ваал-Цефоном.
9 The Egyptians pursued them. All the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen, and his army overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baal Zephon.
10 Фараон приблизился, и сыны Израилевы оглянулись, и вот, Египтяне идут за ними: и весьма устрашились и возопили сыны Израилевы к Господу,
10 When Pharaoh came near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were very afraid. The children of Israel cried out to Yahweh.
11 и сказали Моисею: разве нет гробов в Египте, что ты привел нас умирать в пустыне? что это ты сделал с нами, выведя нас из Египта?
11 They said to Moses, “Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you treated us this way, to bring us out of Egypt?
12 Не это ли самое говорили мы тебе в Египте, сказав: оставь нас, пусть мы работаем Египтянам? Ибо лучше быть нам в рабстве у Египтян, нежели умереть в пустыне.
12 Isn’t this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, ‘Leave us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”
13 Но Моисей сказал народу: не бойтесь, стойте — и увидите спасение Господне, которое Он соделает вам ныне, ибо Египтян, которых видите вы ныне, более не увидите во веки;
13 Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of Yahweh, which he will work for you today; for you will never again see the Egyptians whom you have seen today.
14 Господь будет поборать за вас, а вы будьте спокойны.
14 Yahweh will fight for you, and you shall be still.”
15 И сказал Господь Моисею: что ты вопиешь ко Мне? скажи сынам Израилевым, чтоб они шли,
15 Yahweh said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward.
16 а ты подними жезл твой и простри руку твою на море, и раздели его, и пройдут сыны Израилевы среди моря по суше;
16 Lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. Then the children of Israel shall go into the middle of the sea on dry ground.
17 Я же ожесточу сердце [фараона и всех] Египтян, и они пойдут вслед за ними; и покажу славу Мою на фараоне и на всем войске его, на колесницах его и на всадниках его;
17 Behold, I myself will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they will go in after them. I will get myself honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.
18 и узнают [все] Египтяне, что Я Господь, когда покажу славу Мою на фараоне, на колесницах его и на всадниках его.
18 The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh when I have gotten myself honor over Pharaoh, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.”
19 И двинулся Ангел Божий, шедший пред станом [сынов] Израилевых, и пошел позади их; двинулся и столп облачный от лица их и стал позади их;
19 The angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them, and stood behind them.
20 и вошел в средину между станом Египетским и между станом [сынов] Израилевых, и был облаком и мраком для одних и освещал ночь для других, и не сблизились одни с другими во всю ночь.
20 It came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. There was the cloud and the darkness, yet it gave light by night. One didn’t come near the other all night.
21 И простер Моисей руку свою на море, и гнал Господь море сильным восточным ветром всю ночь и сделал море сушею, и расступились воды.
21 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and Yahweh caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
22 И пошли сыны Израилевы среди моря по суше: воды же были им стеною по правую и по левую сторону.
22 The children of Israel went into the middle of the sea on the dry ground; and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
23 Погнались Египтяне, и вошли за ними в средину моря все кони фараона, колесницы его и всадники его.
23 The Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the middle of the sea: all of Pharaoh’s horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
24 И в утреннюю стражу воззрел Господь на стан Египтян из столпа огненного и облачного и привел в замешательство стан Египтян;
24 In the morning watch, Yahweh looked out on the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and of cloud, and confused the Egyptian army.
25 и отнял колеса у колесниц их, так что они влекли их с трудом. И сказали Египтяне: побежим от Израильтян, потому что Господь поборает за них против Египтян.
25 He took off their chariot wheels, and they drove them heavily; so that the Egyptians said, “Let’s flee from the face of Israel, for Yahweh fights for them against the Egyptians!”
26 И сказал Господь Моисею: простри руку твою на море, и да обратятся воды на Египтян, на колесницы их и на всадников их.
26 Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come again on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.”
27 И простер Моисей руку свою на море, и к утру вода возвратилась в свое место; а Египтяне бежали навстречу [воде]. Так потопил Господь Египтян среди моря.
27 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it. Yahweh overthrew the Egyptians in the middle of the sea.
28 И вода возвратилась и покрыла колесницы и всадников всего войска фараонова, вошедших за ними в море; не осталось ни одного из них.
28 The waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen, even all Pharaoh’s army that went in after them into the sea. There remained not so much as one of them.
29 А сыны Израилевы прошли по суше среди моря: воды [были] им стеною по правую и [стеною] по левую сторону.
29 But the children of Israel walked on dry land in the middle of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
30 И избавил Господь в день тот Израильтян из рук Египтян, и увидели [сыны] Израилевы Египтян мертвыми на берегу моря.
30 Thus Yahweh saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.
31 И увидели Израильтяне руку великую, которую явил Господь над Египтянами, и убоялся народ Господа и поверил Господу и Моисею, рабу Его. Тогда Моисей и сыны Израилевы воспели Господу песнь сию и говорили:
31 Israel saw the great work which Yahweh did to the Egyptians, and the people feared Yahweh; and they believed in Yahweh and in his servant Moses.

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?
