What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? Thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
What ails you, O [Red] Sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back?
What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?
Sea, why did you run away? Jordan, why did you retreat?
Merciful is the Lord, and just. And our God is compassionate.
The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.
