2 'Speak to the sons of Israel. Let them turn back and encamp away from the region of Pihahiroth, which is between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal-zephon. In its sight you shall place your camp, above the sea.
3 And Pharaoh will say about the sons of Israel, 'They have been confined by the land; the desert has enclosed them.'
4 And I will harden his heart, and so he will pursue you. And I will be glorified in Pharaoh, and in all his army. And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord.' And they did so.
5 And it was reported to the king of the Egyptians that the people had fled. And the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed about the people, and they said, 'What did we intend to do, so that we released Israel from serving us?'
6 Therefore, he harnessed his chariot, and he took all his people with him.
