Psalms 114

1 When Israel departed from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,

Mgbe ụmụ Izrel si nʼala Ijipt pụta, mgbe ezinaụlọ Jekọb sitekwara nʼebe ndị asụsụ ha dị iche pụta,

2 Judah became God’s sanctuary, and Israel His dominion.

Juda ghọrọ ebe nsọ Chineke, Izrel ghọrọ ala ọ na-achị.

3 The sea observed and fled; the Jordan turned back;

Osimiri hụrụ ya, gbaa ọsọ, osimiri Jọdan hụkwara ya chigharịa laa azụ;

4 the mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.

Ugwu ukwu niile wụliri elu dịka ebule; ugwu nta niile wụlikwara elu dịka ụmụ atụrụ.

5 Why was it, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, that you turned back,

Gịnị mere gị oke osimiri, i ji na-agba ọsọ? Osimiri Jọdan, gịnị na-eme gị i ji chigharịa laa azụ?

6 O mountains, that you skipped like rams, O hills, like lambs?

Gịnị na-eme unu, ugwu ukwu niile unu ji na-awụli elu dịka ụmụ ebule? Gịnị na-emekwa unu, ugwu nta niile, unu ji na-awụli elu dịka ụmụ atụrụ?

7 Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

Ka ụwa niile maa jijiji nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ka ọ maakwa jijiji nʼihu Chineke nke Jekọb,

8 who turned the rock into a pool, the flint into a fountain of water!

onye mere ka oke nkume ghọọ ọdọ mmiri, onye mere ka ọmụ nkume ghọọ isi iyi mmiri.
