¹³ And Moses said to the people, ^(A)“Do not be afraid. ^(B)Stand still, and see the ^(C)salvation^[a] of the Lord, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall ^(D)see again no more forever.

⁴⁵ Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. ^(A)But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have ^(B)defied. ⁴⁶ This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give ^(C)the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, ^(D)that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. ⁴⁷ Then all this assembly shall know that the Lord ^(E)does not save with sword and spear; for ^(F)the battle is the Lord’s, and He will give you into our hands.”

¹² Now look, God Himself is with us as our ^(A)head, ^(B)and His priests with sounding trumpets to sound the alarm against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the Lord God of your fathers, for you shall not prosper!”

^17 (A)You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem!’ Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, ^(B)for the Lord is with you.”

God’s Everlasting Love

³¹ What then shall we say to these things? ^(A)If God is for us, who can be against us?
