Isn’t this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, ‘Leave us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians’?
For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.”
Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid.
Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will work for you today; for you will never again see the Egyptians whom you have seen today.
The LORD will fight for you, and you shall be still.”
The LORD said to Moses, “Why do you cry to me?
Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward.
