Exodus 14:12-14

International Standard Version

¹² Is this not what we told you in Egypt, when we said, ‘Leave us alone!’^[a] and ‘Let us serve the Egyptians!’? Indeed, it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert!”

¹³ Moses told the people, “Don’t be afraid! Stand still and watch how the Lord will deliver you today, because you will never again see the Egyptians whom you’re looking at today. ¹⁴ The Lord will fight for you while you keep still.”
