¹And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

¹Tojoßnak li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj Moisés:

²Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baalzephon: before it shall ye encamp by the sea.

²—Ye reheb laj Israel nak jalan li be teßxcßam toj jun pacßal li naßajej Pi-hahirot. Saß xyi li naßajej Migdol ut li palau saß xjayal li naßajej Baal-zefón têyîb lê muhebâl chire li palau.

³For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.

³Laj faraón tixye nak xsach li be chiruheb saß li chaki chßochß. Aran incßaß naru teßnumekß, chaßak.

⁴And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall follow after them; and I will be honored upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; that the Egyptians may know that I am the LORD. And they did so.

⁴Ut lâin tincacuubresi xchßôl laj faraón ut laj faraón textâke lâex aj Israel re nak texsukßisi chak. Ut kßaxal cuißchic tânimobresîk lin cßabaß xban laj faraón ut eb lix soldado. Ut eb laj Egipto teßxnau nak lâin li Kâcuaß Dios, chan li Dios re laj Moisés. Ut eb laj Israel queßxbânu joß quixye li Kâcuaß Dios.

⁵And it was told the king of Egypt that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?

⁵Nak quirabi nak ac xeßel laj Israel, laj faraón joß eb ajcuiß laj cßanjel chiru queßyotßeß xchßôl nak queßxcanabeb chi xic. Eb aßan queßxye: —¿Ma us ta biß nak xkacanabeb chi xic ut xocana chi mâcßaß chic kamôs? chanqueb.

⁶And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:

⁶Tojoßnak laj faraón quixtakla xbokbaleb lix soldado. Ut quixtakla ajcuiß xcßambaleb lix carruaje.

⁷And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.

⁷Xbên cua quixtakla li cuakib ciento lix carruaje li mas châbil. Chirix aßan quixtakla chixjunileb li incßaß mas châbil. Queßcôeb ajcuiß li nequeßtaklan reheb.

⁸And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel: and the children of Israel went out with an high hand.

⁸Li Kâcuaß Dios quixcacuubresi xchßôl laj faraón lix reyeb laj Egipto re nak tixtâkeheb laj Israel. Ut eb laj Israel nequeßtzololnac chi xic. Ut li Kâcuaß Dios yô chi cßamoc be chiruheb riqßuin lix nimal xcuanquilal.

⁹But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.

⁹Eb laj Egipto queßxtâkeheb laj Israel. Queßcôeb lix cacuây laj faraón joß ajcuiß eb lix carruaje. Queßcôeb chixjunileb lix soldado. Ut coxeßxtauheb xmuhebâl laj Israel jun pacßal li naßajej Pi-hahirot chire li palau saß xjayal li naßajej Baal-zefón.

¹⁰And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were sore afraid: and the children of Israel cried out unto the LORD.

¹⁰Nak queßril laj Israel nak yôqueb chi nachßoc laj faraón rochbeneb chak lix soldado quilajeßsach xchßôl ut cßajoß nak queßxucuac. Japjôqueb re chiru li Kâcuaß Dios.

¹¹And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt?

¹¹Ut queßxye re laj Moisés: —¿Ma mâcßaß muklebâl aran Egipto? ¿Cßaßut nak xoâcßam chak arin chi câmc saß li chaki chßochß? ¿Cßaßut nak xabânu ke chi joßcaßin? ¿Cßaßru rajbal nak xoâcuisi saß li tenamit Egipto?

¹²Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.

¹²Nak toj cuanco aran xkaye âcue nak toâcanab chi trabajic riqßuineb laj Egipto. Us raj chokß ke li trabajic riqßuineb chiru nak toeßxcamsi arin saß li chaki chßochß, chanqueb.

¹³And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will show to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.

¹³Laj Moisés quixye reheb: —Mexxucuac. Cacuubresihomak ban êchßôl. Hôn nequeril chanru nak tocolekß xban li Kâcuaß Dios. Eb laj Egipto li yôquex chi rilbal anakcuan mâ jun cua chic têril ruheb.

¹⁴The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.

¹⁴Lâex mexcßoxlac. Mâcuaß lâex texpletik. Li Kâcuaß Dios ban tâpletik riqßuineb chokß êrûchil, chan laj Moisés.

¹⁵And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:

¹⁵Ut li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj Moisés: —¿Cßaßru nequeroybeni? Ye reheb li cristian nak xicakeb.

¹⁶But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.

¹⁶Lâat tâtaksi lâ xukß ut tâteleb lâ cuukß saß xbên li palau re nak tixjach rib li haß. Tincanab chi chaki lê be re nak texnumekß saß li palau.

¹⁷And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honor upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.

¹⁷Lâin tincacuubresi xchßôleb laj Egipto re nak teßxic chêrix. Ut riqßuin li tinbânu riqßuineb laj faraón joß eb ajcuiß chixjunileb lix soldado, joß ajcuiß eb lix carruaje, kßaxal cuißchic teßxqßue inlokßal eb laj Israel.

¹⁸And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honor upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.

¹⁸Ut chixjunileb laj Egipto teßxqßue retal nak lâin li tzßakal Dios. Teßxqßue incuanquil nak teßril nak kßaxal nim incuanquilal saß xbên laj faraón ut chixjunileb lix soldado joß ajcuiß eb lix carruaje, chan li Dios.

¹⁹And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:

¹⁹Ut lix ángel li Dios li yô chi cßamoc be chiruheb laj Israel quixjal xnaßaj. Quicana chi ixbej. Joßcan ajcuiß li chok cô chi ixbej.

²⁰And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the night.

²⁰Li chok quicana saß xyiheb laj Israel ut laj Egipto. Chi joßcan quikßojyînoß lix beheb laj Egipto ut eb laj Israel cutan yôqueb cuiß chi xic. Quinumeß li kßojyîn ut incßaß queßcuulac cuanqueb cuiß laj Israel.

²¹And 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.

²¹Tojoßnak laj Moisés quixqßue li rukß saß xbên li palau. Li Kâcuaß Dios quixtakla jun cacuil ikß li nachal chak saß releb li sakße. Yô li ikß chixjunil li kßojyîn ut xban li ikß li palau quixjach rib ut quixchakihobresi lix beheb laj Israel li teßnumekß cuiß saß li palau.

²²And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

²²Ut eb laj Israel saß chaki chßochß queßnumeß nak quixjach rib li haß. Chanchan li tzßac quicana li haß saß xcaß pacßalil li be.

²³And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.

²³Ut chixjunileb lix soldado laj faraón joß eb ajcuiß lix carruaje yôqueb chixtâkenquileb laj Israel. Queßoc ajcuiß saß xyi li palau saß li chaki be.

²⁴And it came to pass, that in the morning watch the LORD looked unto the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,

²⁴Nak yô chi sakêuc cuan li Kâcuaß Dios saß li chok ut saß li xam. Quirileb laj Egipto ut quixtakla li raylal saß xbêneb.

²⁵And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fighteth for them against the Egyptians.

²⁵Ut eb li carruaje queßxtiquib tßilc. Chßaßaj chic nak yôqueb chi xic. Eb laj Egipto queßxucuac ut queßxye chi rilbileb rib: —Us tosukßîk. Us toêlelik chiruheb laj Israel. Li Kâcuaß Dios yô xtenkßanquileb aßan ut lâo aj Egipto xicß yô chikilbal, chanqueb.

²⁶And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.

²⁶Tojoßnak li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj Moisés: —Teleb lâ cuukß saß xbên li palau re nak tixjunaji rib li haß ut tâxic saß xbêneb laj Egipto rochbeneb lix carruaje, chan.

²⁷And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

²⁷Ut saß li cutan aßan toj ekßela laj Moisés quixqßue li rukß saß xbên li palau. Ut li haß quixjunaji rib. Riqßuin li quixbânu li Dios, eb laj Egipto queßxsach xnaßleb saß xyi li palau ut queßêlelic raj saß li haß.

²⁸And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.

²⁸Aban quixcßul cuißchic rib li haß ut queßmukun rubel chixjunileb laj Egipto joß eb ajcuiß li carruaje li yôqueb cuiß chi tâkênc reheb laj Israel. Queßosoß chixjunileb. Mâ jun chic queßcoleß.

²⁹But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

²⁹Ut eb laj Israel ac xeßnumeß jun pacßal li palau saß li chaki chßochß. Chanchan li tzßac quicana li haß saß xcaß pacßalil li be nak queßnumeß.

³⁰Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore.

³⁰Joßcaßin nak li Kâcuaß Dios quixcoleb laj Israel saß rukßeb laj Egipto saß li cutan aßan. Ut xban xcuanquil li Kâcuaß Dios, eb laj Egipto queßcam saß li palau. Eb laj Israel queßril nak camenakeb chic laj Egipto chire li palau.Ut eb laj Israel queßxxucua ru ut queßxlokßoni li Kâcuaß Dios nak queßril li quixbânu reheb laj Egipto. Queßxpâb li Dios ut queßabin chiru laj Moisés xban nak aßan aj cßanjel chiru li Dios.

³¹And Israel saw that great work which the LORD did upon the Egyptians: and the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD, and his servant Moses.

³¹Ut eb laj Israel queßxxucua ru ut queßxlokßoni li Kâcuaß Dios nak queßril li quixbânu reheb laj Egipto. Queßxpâb li Dios ut queßabin chiru laj Moisés xban nak aßan aj cßanjel chiru li Dios.
