L’Éternel combattra pour vous; et vous, tenez-vous tranquilles!"

et il détacha les roues de ses chars, les faisant ainsi avancer pesamment. Alors l’Égyptien s’écria: "Fuyons devant Israël, car l’Éternel combat pour eux contre l’Égypte!"
Aliya 4
Israël reconnut alors la haute puissance que le Seigneur avait déployée sur l’Égypte et le peuple révéra le Seigneur; et ils eurent foi en l’Éternel et en Moïse, son serviteur.

And it was told to the king of Egypt [on the fourth day, by officers that he had sent with them (after seeing that they did not return to Egypt on the stipulated third day)] that the people had fled. [(On the fifth and sixth days they pursued them; on the night of the seventh Israel went down to the sea; and in the morning — the seventh day of Pesach — they sang (15:1)], and the heart of Pharaoh (12:31) and of his servants (10:7) was reversed against the people. [Now they pursued them for the wealth that they had lent them], and they said: What is this that we did in sending Israel away from serving us!

ויוגד למלך מצרים. אִיקְטוּרִין שלח עמהם (מכילתא פ"א), וכיון שהגיעו לשלשת ימים שקבעו לילך ולשוב, וראו שאינן חוזרין למצרים, באו והגידו לפרעה ביום הרביעי, ובחמישי ובששי רדפו אחריהם, וליל שביעי ירדו לים, בשחרית אמרו שירה, והוא יום שביעי של פסח, לכך אנו קורין השירה ביום השביעי:
ויהפך. נהפך ממה שהיה, שהרי אמר להם קוּמוּ צְּאוּ מִתֹּוךְ עַמִּי (שמות יב, לא), ונהפך לבב עבדיו, שהרי לשעבר היו אומרים לו עַד מָתַי יִהְיֶה זֶה לָנוּ לְמֹוקֵשׁ, ועכשיו נהפכו לרדוף אחריהם בשביל ממונם שהשאילום:
מעבדנו. מעבוד אותנו:

Ramban (Nachmanides)
English
AND IT WAS TOLD THE KING OF EGYPT THAT THE PEOPLE HAD FLED. “He sent guards with them, and as soon as they had reached the three days’ journey that was fixed for them to go and return, and [these guards] saw that they were not returning to Egypt, they went and reported to Pharaoh on the fourth day. On the fifth and sixth days, the Egyptians pursued after them. On the night of the seventh day, they went down into the sea, and on the following morning, the Israelites uttered the Song, and this was the seventh day of Passover. It is for this reason that [during the Synagogue service] on the seventh day of Passover, we read [the Scriptural portion containing] the Song at the Red Sea.” This is the language of Rashi. And so it is also explained in the Mechilta.
In line with the plain meaning of Scripture, the verse here is to be understood in the light of that which G-d said, And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel: They are entangled in the land. When the children of Israel [indicated that this was] so, and they turned back and encamped before Phi-hahiroth before Baal-zephon, this was reported to the king of Egypt. He said that the people were fled and entangled in the desert, and that they were not going towards a definite place to offer sacrifices for G-d. And this is the intent of the verse, and the children of Israel went out with a high hand. This means that they made themselves a flag and a banner for display, and they went out with mirth and with songs, with tabret and with harp, like people who are redeemed from bondage to freedom, and not like slaves who expect to return to their servitude. All this was told to Pharaoh.

Rashbam
English
כי ברח העם; seeing they had turned back.
מעבדנו, the letter ח has a chataf kametz vowel underneath it, so that the word means “from serving us.” We find a similar construction Deuteronomy 7,8 where the words ומשמרו את-השבועה, mean: “and due to His observing His oath.” Also Exodus 16,3 באלנו לחם לשובע, “when we ate as much bread as we wanted,” or Numbers 26,10 באכל האש, “when the fire consumed,” are similar constructions of verbs as a form of the present tense.

כי ברח העם, they had not marched straight into the desert as they had maintained they would. In 8,23 all they had asked for was to be allowed to march into the desert a distance of three days’ journey. They had now departed from their planned route so that this could be interpreted as an attempt to flee. The new route made no sense, showing they did not know where they were headed, just as one would expect of a fugitive.
ויהפך לבב פרעה, Pharaoh had concluded that the Baal Tzefon was an equal to G’d and could frustrate His designs.
מה זאת עשינו כי שלחנו, what (a foolish thing) have we done in dismissing the Israelites, etc.! We should have consulted Baal Tzefon who would have helped us so that we would have had no need to let the Israelites depart.
