Tingtoeng 114

1 Egypt lamloh Israel, kholong ol cal pilnam lamloh Jakob imkhui ha pai vaengah;

When Israel came forth from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

2 A hmuencim la Judah, a khohung la Israel a om pah.

Judah was his sanctuary, And Israel his dominion.

3 Tuitunli loh a hmuh vaengah rhaelrham tih, Jordan khaw a hnuk la mael.

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

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

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

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

What aileth thee, O thou sea! that thou fleest? Thou, Jordan, that thou runnest back?

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

Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams, And ye hills like lambs?

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

Tremble, O 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 standing lake, And the flint into a fountain of water!
