Masalimo 114

1 Pamene Israeli anatuluka mu Igupto, nyumba ya Yakobo kuchoka ku mtundu wa anthu a chiyankhulo chachilendo,

In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,

2 Yuda anasanduka malo opatulika a Mulungu, Israeli anasanduka ufumu wake.

Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 Nyanja inaona ndi kuthawa, mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwerera mʼmbuyo;

The sea has seen, and flees, The Jordan turns backward.

4 mapiri analumphalumpha ngati nkhosa zazimuna, timapiri ngati ana ankhosa.

The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.

5 Nʼchifukwa chiyani iwe unathawa? iwe mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwereranji mʼmbuyo?

What is [ailing] you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, you turn back!

6 inu mapiri, munalumphalumphiranji ngati nkhosa zazimuna, inu timapiri, ngati ana ankhosa?

O mountains, you skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!

7 Njenjemera pamaso pa Ambuye iwe dziko lapansi, pamaso pa Mulungu wa Yakobo,

From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,

8 amene anasandutsa thanthwe kukhala chitsime, thanthwe lolimba kukhala akasupe a madzi.

He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
