NEW JERUSALEMNOVA VULGATA
1 Al eluia! When Israel came out of Egypt, the House of Jacob from a people of foreign speech,1 ALLELUIA.
In exitu Israel de Aegypto,
domus Iacob de populo barbaro,
2 Judah became his sanctuary, and Israel his domain.2 factus est Iuda sanctuarium eius,
Israel potestas eius.
3 The sea fled at the sight, the Jordan turned back,3 Mare vidit et fugit,
Iordanis conversus est retrorsum;
4 the mountains skipped like rams, the hil s like sheep.4 montes saltaverunt ut arietes,
et colles sicut agni ovium. -
5 Sea, what makes you flee? Jordan, why turn back?5 Quid est tibi, mare, quod fugisti?
Et tu, Iordanis, quia conversus es retrorsum?
6 Why skip like rams, you mountains? Why like sheep, you hills?6 Montes, quod saltastis sicut arietes,
et colles, sicut agni ovium?
7 Tremble, earth, at the coming of the Lord, at the coming of the God of Jacob,7 A facie Domini contremisce, terra,
a facie Dei Iacob,
8 who turns rock into pool, flint into fountain.8 qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum
et silicem in fontes aquarum.
