1 When Israel came out of Egypt, the children of Jacob from a people whose language was strange to them;

2 Judah became his holy place, and Israel his kingdom.

3 The sea saw it, and went in flight; Jordan was turned back.

4 The mountains were jumping like goats, and the little hills like lambs.

5 What was wrong with you, O sea, that you went in flight? O Jordan, that you were turned back?

6 You mountains, why were you jumping like goats, and you little hills like lambs?

7 Be troubled, O earth, before the Lord, before the God of Jacob;

8 Who made the rock into a water-spring, and the hard stone into a fountain.

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.
