¹Kui Iisrael läks välja Egiptusest ja Jaakobi sugu umbkeelse rahva juurest,

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

²siis sai Juuda tema pühamuks ja Iisrael tema valitsusalaks.

²Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

³Meri nägi ja põgenes, Jordan pöördus tagasi.

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

⁴Mäed hüplesid otsekui jäärad, kingud nagu lambatalled.

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

⁵Mis sul oli, meri, et sa põgenesid, Jordan, et sa pöördusid tagasi,

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

⁶mäed, et te hüplesite otsekui jäärad, ja teie, kingud, nagu lambatalled?

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

⁷Issanda palge ees värise, maa, Jaakobi Jumala palge ees,

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

⁸kes muudab kalju veejärveks, ränikivi veeallikaks!

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