< Psalms 114 >
1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:
Israeri akati abuda muIjipiti, imba yaJakobho ichibva kurudzi runo mutauro wokumwe,
2 Judea made his sanctuary, 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 the lambs of the flock.
makomo akakwakuka samakondobwe, zvikomo samakwayana.
5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O 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 of the flock?
imi makomo zvamakakwakuka samakondobwe, nemi zvikomo, samakwayana?
7 At the presence of the Lord the earth was moved, 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 stony hill into fountains of waters.
akashandura dombo rikava dziva, dombo rakaoma rikava matsime emvura.
