< Psalms 114 >
1 When Israel came forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
Egypt lamloh Israel, kholong ol cal pilnam lamloh Jakob imkhui ha pai vaengah;
2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominion.
A hmuencim la Judah, a khohung la Israel a om pah.
3 The sea saw it, and fled; the Jordan turned backward.
Tuitunli loh a hmuh vaengah rhaelrham tih, Jordan khaw a hnuk la mael.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like young sheep.
Tlang rhoek khaw som rhoek kah tutal rhoek neh, boiva ca bangla na cungpet uh.
5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? thou Jordan, that thou turnest backward?
Tuitunli nang te bahamnim na rhaelrham, Jordan long khaw a hnuk la na mael?
6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; ye hills, like young sheep?
Tlang rhoek khaw som rhoek kah tutal rhoek neh, boiva ca bangla na cungpet uh.
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
Diklai nang Boeipa mikhmuh neh, Jakob Pathen mikhmuh ah thuen lah.
8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
Anih loh lungpang te tuibap tui la, hmailung khaw tuisih tui la a coeng sak.
