Who Is Like You?

Then Moses and Israel sang: I will sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea. Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him. They praised God's right hand, glorious in power. Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

They sang that God, in His loving kindness, had led the people He redeemed and would bring them to His holy dwelling. Yahweh will reign forever and ever. Miriam the prophetess, Aaron's sister, took a tambourine, and all the women followed with tambourines and dances. Miriam answered them, Sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously.

They went three days in the wilderness and found no water. At Marah the water was bitter. The people murmured, What shall we drink? Moses cried to Yahweh, who showed him a tree. He threw it into the water, and it became sweet. God promised that if they listened to his voice and did what was right, he would not put on them the diseases he put on the Egyptians. He said, I am Yahweh who heals you. They came to Elim, with twelve springs and seventy palm trees.
