< Psalms 114 >
1 Alleluia. At the departure of Israel from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:
Коли Ізраїль виходив з Єгипту, Яків від народу чужоземного,
2 Judea was made his sanctuary; Israel was made his power.
тоді Юда став Його святинею, Ізраїль – Його володінням.
3 The sea looked, and it fled. The Jordan was turned back again.
Море побачило [це] й кинулося навтіки, Йордан повернувся назад.
4 The mountains exulted like rams, and the hills like lambs among the sheep.
Гори скакали, немов барани, пагорби – наче ягнята.
5 What happened to you, O sea, so that you fled, and to you, O Jordan, so that you were turned back again?
Що з тобою, море, що ти втікаєш, і з тобою, Йордане, що ти назад повертаєшся?
6 What happened to you, O mountains, so that you exulted like rams, and to you, O hills, so that you exulted like lambs among the sheep?
Що це ви, гори, скакаєте, як барани, і ви, пагорби, – немов ягнята?
7 Before the face of the Lord, the earth was moved, before the face of the God of Jacob.
Тремти, земле, перед Володарем, перед Богом Якова,
8 He converted the rock into pools of water, and the cliff into fountains of waters.
Який перетворює скелю на водойму, кремінь – на джерело води.
