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

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

The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.

5 Tuitunli nang te bahamnim na rhaelrham, Jordan long khaw a hnuk la na mael?

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

6 Tlang rhoek khaw som rhoek kah tutal rhoek neh, boiva ca bangla na cungpet uh.

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

7 Diklai nang Boeipa mikhmuh neh, Jakob Pathen mikhmuh ah thuen lah.

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

8 Anih loh lungpang te tuibap tui la, hmailung khaw tuisih tui la a coeng sak.

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