< Psalms 114 >
1 Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,
Israeri akati abuda muIjipiti, imba yaJakobho ichibva kurudzi runo mutauro wokumwe,
2 Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
Judha akava imba tsvene yaMwari, Israeri ushe hwake.
3 The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
Gungwa rakazviona rikatiza, Jorodhani rwakadzokera shure;
4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.
makomo akakwakuka samakondobwe, zvikomo samakwayana.
5 What [ailed] thee, O sea, that thou fleddest? and thou Jordan, that thou wast turned back?
Haiwa gungwa, wakatizeiko, iwe Jorodhani zvawakadzokera shure,
6 [Ye] mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and [ye] hills, like lambs?
imi makomo zvamakakwakuka samakondobwe, nemi zvikomo, samakwayana?
7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
Dedera, iwe nyika pamberi paShe, pamberi paMwari waJakobho,
8 who turned the rock into pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.
akashandura dombo rikava dziva, dombo rakaoma rikava matsime emvura.
