1 When Israel went forth out of Egypt,

The house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

2 Judah became his sanctuary,

Israel his dominion.

3 The sea saw it, and fled;

The Jordan was driven back.

4 The mountains skipped like rams,

The little hills like lambs.

5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest?

Thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?

6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams;

Ye little hills, like lambs?

7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord,

At the presence of the God of Jacob,

8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water,

The flint into a fountain of waters.

1 I te putanga mai o Iharaira i Ihipa, o te whare o Hakopa i te iwi reo ke,

2 Ko Hura tona wahi tapu, ko Iharaira tona rangatiratanga.

3 I kite te moana, a whati ana: i whakahokia ki muri a Horano.

4 Pekepeke ana nga maunga ano he hipi toa, nga pukepuke ano he reme.

5 I ahatia koe, e te moana, i whati ai koe e Horano, i whakahokia ai koe ki muri?

6 E nga maunga, i pekepeke ai koutou ano he hipi toa; e nga pukepuke, ano he reme?

7 E wiri, e te whenua, i te aroaro o te Ariki; i te aroaro o te Atua o Hakopa;

8 I meinga ai te toka hei hopua wai; te kiripaka hei puna wai.
