< Psalms 114 >
1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language,
Tango Isalaele abimaki wuta na Ejipito, tango libota ya Jakobi elongwaki na ekolo ya bapaya,
2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
Yuda ekomaki Esika ya bule ya Yawe, mpe Isalaele ekomaki mabele na Ye.
3 The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.
Ebale monene emonaki yango mpe ekimaki, mayi ya Yordani ezongaki na sima,
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.
bangomba epumbwaki lokola bameme, bangomba mike epumbwaki lokola bana ya ntaba.
5 What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?
Ebale monene, nini ezalaki kati na yo mpo ete okima? Yordani, mpo na nini ozongaki na sima?
6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You little hills, like lambs?
Bino bangomba, mpo nini bopumbwaki lokola bameme? Bongo bino bangomba mike, mpo na nini bopumbwaki lokola bana ya ntaba?
7 Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
Mokili, lenga liboso ya Yawe, liboso ya Nzambe ya Jakobi,
8 who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
oyo abongolaka libanga monene liziba, mpe libanga etima.
