1In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,
1¶ I te putanga mai o Iharaira i Ihipa, o te whare o Hakopa i te iwi reo ke,
2Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
2Ko Hura tona wahi tapu, ko Iharaira tona rangatiratanga.
3The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.
3I kite te moana, a whati ana: i whakahokia ki muri a Horano.
4The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.
4Pekepeke ana nga maunga ano he hipi toa, nga pukepuke ano he reme.
5What — to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou turnest back!
5I ahatia koe, e te moana, i whati ai koe e Horano, i whakahokia ai koe ki muri?
6O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!
6E nga maunga, i pekepeke ai koutou ano he hipi toa; e nga pukepuke, ano he reme?
7From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,
7E wiri, e te whenua, i te aroaro o te Ariki; i te aroaro o te Atua o Hakopa;
8He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
8I meinga ai te toka hei hopua wai; te kiripaka hei puna wai.
