Exodus 14:16

Parting the Red Sea

15Then the LORD said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to Me? Tell the Israelites to go forward.16And as for you, lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground.17And I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them. Then I will gain honor by means of Pharaoh and all his army and chariots and horsemen.
