Halelu 114

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

When Israel came forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from among a people of strange tongue,

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

Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his realm:

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

The sea, beheld, and fled, The Jordan, turned back;

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

The mountains, started like rams, The hills like the young of the flock?

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? O Jordan, that thou turnest back?

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 start like rams? Ye hills, like the young of the flock?

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

Before the Lord, be in anguish, O earth, Before the GOD of Jacob:

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

Who turneth The Rock into a pool of water, The Flint into springs of water.
