Psalms 114

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, and the house of Iaakob from the barbarous people,

Pamene Israeli anatuluka mu Igupto, nyumba ya Yakobo kuchoka ku mtundu wa anthu a chiyankhulo chachilendo,

2 Iudah was his sanctification, and Israel his dominion.

Yuda anasanduka malo opatulika a Mulungu, Israeli anasanduka ufumu wake.

3 The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.

Nyanja inaona ndi kuthawa, mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwerera mʼmbuyo;

4 The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.

mapiri analumphalumpha ngati nkhosa zazimuna, timapiri ngati ana ankhosa.

5 What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?

Nʼchifukwa chiyani iwe unathawa? iwe mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwereranji mʼmbuyo?

6 Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?

inu mapiri, munalumphalumphiranji ngati nkhosa zazimuna, inu timapiri, ngati ana ankhosa?

7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,

Njenjemera pamaso pa Ambuye iwe dziko lapansi, pamaso pa Mulungu wa Yakobo,

8 Which turneth the rocke into waterpooles, and the flint into a fountaine of water.

amene anasandutsa thanthwe kukhala chitsime, thanthwe lolimba kukhala akasupe a madzi.
