Halelu 114

1 KA hale o Iakoha hoi, mai waena aku o na kanaka olelo e;

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

2 O Iuda no kona keenakapu, A o Iseraela kona aupuni.

Judah became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.

3 Ike mai la ke kai, a holo aku la; A huli hope o Ioredane.

The sea beheld it, and fled: the Jordan was driven backward.

4 Lelele ae la na mauna e like me na hipakane, A me na puu hoi e like me na keikihipa.

The mountains skipped like wethers, the hills like lambs.

5 Heaha kau, e ke kai, i holo aku ai oe? E Ioredane hoi, i hoohuliia'i oe ihope?

What aileth thee, O sea, that thou fleest? thou, O Jordan, that thou art driven backward?

6 E na mauna, i lelele ai oukou e like me na hipakane? A me na puu hoi e like me na keikihipa?

Ye mountains, that ye skip like wethers? ye hills, like lambs?

7 E naueue oe, e ka honua, imua o ka Haku, Imua hoi o ke Akua o Iakoha.

At the presence of the Lord tremble, O earth, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

8 Ka mea i hoolilo i ka pohaku, i wai lana, A me ka pohaku paea, i punawai.

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