And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.
Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, through the heap of great waters.
That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.
And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers.
