6 E preparou seu carro, e tomou consigo seu povo;

7 e tomou seiscentos carros escolhidos, e todos os carros do Egito, e os capitães sobre eles.

8 E endureceu o SENHOR o coração de Faraó rei do Egito, e seguiu aos filhos de Israel; mas os filhos de Israel haviam saído com mão poderosa.

9 Seguindo-os, pois, os egípcios, com toda a cavalaria e carros de Faraó, seus cavaleiros, e todo seu exército, alcançaram-nos assentando o acampamento junto ao mar, ao lado de Pi-Hairote, diante de Baal-Zefom.

10 E quando Faraó se aproximou, os filhos de Israel levantaram seus olhos, e eis que os egípcios vinham atrás deles; por isso temeram muito, e os filhos de Israel clamaram ao SENHOR.
