Psalms 114

1 At the time of the exodus of Israel from Egypt, when the descendants of Jacob left that foreign country,

Isirayiri bwe yava mu Misiri, abaana ba Yakobo abo, ne bava mu bantu abaayogeranga olulimi olutali lwabwe;

2 the land of Judah became the Lord's sanctuary, Israel his kingdom.

Yuda n’afuuka omutukuvu wa Katonda, Isirayiri n’afuuka amatwale ge.

3 The Red Sea saw them and ran away; the Jordan River retreated.

Ennyanja bwe yabalaba n’edduka; Omugga Yoludaani ne gudda emabega.

4 Mountains jumped in fright like rams, hills startled like lambs.

Ensozi ne zibuukabuuka ng’endiga zisseddume, n’obusozi obutono ng’obuliga obuto.

5 Red Sea—why did you run away? Jordan River—why did you retreat?

Ggwe ennyanja, lwaki wadduka? Ggwe Yoludaani, lwaki wadda emabega?

6 Mountains—why did you jump in fright? Hills—why did you startle like lambs?

Mmwe ensozi, lwaki mwabuukabuuka ng’endiga zisseddume, nammwe obusozi obutono ng’obuliga obuto?

7 Earth, tremble in the presence of the Lord, tremble in the presence of the God of Jacob!

Kankana, ggwe ensi, mu maaso ga Mukama, mu maaso ga Katonda wa Yakobo,

8 He is the one who turned the rock into a pool of water; making water flow from the hard rock.

eyafuula olwazi ekidiba eky’amazzi, n’olwazi olugumu n’aluggyamu ensulo ez’amazzi.
