Glad I had the captions on when we watched "The Prince of Egypt" again Saturday night. I was curious about the phrase Ashira l'adonai in one of the songs at the end of the film. This phrase doesn't appear in the English King James' Version of Exodus 15, of course (since it's not English), but also isn't contained (as written) in said chapter in the JPS Hebrew version, either. This, most likely, is a case of phonetic 'transliteration' (as opposed to 'translation'). More information on this is forthcoming. (As I research it.)
