Psalms 114

1 At the time of the exodus of Israel from Egypt, when the descendants of Jacob left that foreign country,

I te putanga mai o Iharaira i Ihipa, o te whare o Hakopa i te iwi reo ke,

2 the land of Judah became the Lord's sanctuary, Israel his kingdom.

Ko Hura tona wahi tapu, ko Iharaira tona rangatiratanga.

3 The Red Sea saw them and ran away; the Jordan River retreated.

I kite te moana, a whati ana: i whakahokia ki muri a Horano.

4 Mountains jumped in fright like rams, hills startled like lambs.

Pekepeke ana nga maunga ano he hipi toa, nga pukepuke ano he reme.

5 Red Sea—why did you run away? Jordan River—why did you retreat?

I ahatia koe, e te moana, i whati ai koe e Horano, i whakahokia ai koe ki muri?

6 Mountains—why did you jump in fright? Hills—why did you startle like lambs?

E nga maunga, i pekepeke ai koutou ano he hipi toa; e nga pukepuke, ano he reme?

7 Earth, tremble in the presence of the Lord, tremble in the presence of the God of Jacob!

E wiri, e te whenua, i te aroaro o te Ariki; i te aroaro o te Atua o Hakopa;

8 He is the one who turned the rock into a pool of water; making water flow from the hard rock.

I meinga ai te toka hei hopua wai; te kiripaka hei puna wai.
