Exodus
Exodus 15:6–8
6Your right hand, O LORD,
is majestic in power;
Your right hand, O LORD,
has shattered the enemy.
7You overthrew Your adversaries
by Your great majesty.
You unleashed Your burning wrath;
it consumed them like stubble.
8At the blast of Your nostrils
the waters piled up;
like a wall the currents stood firm;
the depths congealed in the heart of the sea.
