¹When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

¹[Ny horohoron'ny tany aman-danitra tamin'ny nanavotan'Andriamanitra ny olony tany Egypta] Fony nivoaka avy tany Egypta ny Isiraely, Dia ny taranak'i Jakoba avy tany amin'ny firenena hafa fiteny,

²Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

²Joda no fitoerany masina, Isiraely no fanjakany.

³The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;

³Ny ranomasina nahita ka nandositra; Ary niorika Jordana.

⁴The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.

⁴Ny tendrombohitra dia nifalihavanja tahaka ny ondrilahy, Ary ny havoana tahaka ny zanak'ondry.

⁵What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?

⁵Inona izato mahazo anao, ry ranomasina, no mandositra ianao? Ary ianao, ry Jordana, no miorika ianao?

⁶Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?

⁶Ary ianareo tendrombohitra, no mifalihavanja tahaka ny ondrilahy; Ary ianareo havoana, tahaka ny zanak'ondry?

⁷Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the +God of Jacob,

⁷Mihorohoroa eo anatrehan'ny Tompo, ry tany, Dia eo anatrehan'Andriamanitr'i Jakoba.Izay mampody ny vatolampy ho rano monina Ary ny afovato ho loharano.

⁸Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

⁸Izay mampody ny vatolampy ho rano monina Ary ny afovato ho loharano.
