Psalms 114

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

Yeroo sabni Israaʼel biyya Gibxii, manni Yaaqoobis saba afaan ormaa dubbatu keessaa baʼetti,

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

Yihuudaan mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa, Israaʼel immoo bulchiinsa isaa taʼe.

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

Galaanni argee baqate; Yordaanosis duubatti deebiʼe;

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

tulluuwwan akka korbeeyyii hoolaa, gaarranis akkuma xobbaallaawwan hoolaa burraaqan.

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

Yaa galaana, ati maaliif baqatte? Yaa Yordaanos, atis maaliif duubatti deebite?

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

Yaa tulluuwwan, isin maaliif akka korbeeyyii hoolaa, yaa gaarran isinis maaliif akka xobbaallaawwan hoolaa burraaqxu?

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

Yaa lafa, fuula Gooftaa duratti, fuula Waaqa Yaaqoob duratti holladhu;

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

inni kattaa gara harootti, kattaa jabaa immoo gara burqaa bishaaniitti geeddare.
