Psalms 114

1 When Israel came forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

Esi Israel do go tso Egipte, esi Yakob ƒe aƒe la do go tso gbe bubu gblɔlawo dome la,

2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominion.

Yuda zu Mawu ƒe kɔkɔeƒe, eye Israel zu eƒe fiaɖuƒe.

3 The sea saw it, and fled; the Jordan turned backward.

Atsiaƒu kpɔe, eye wòsi dzo, Yɔdan tɔsisi hã te yi megbe.

4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like young sheep.

Towo ti kpo abe agbowo ene, eye togbɛwo abe alẽviwo ene.

5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? thou Jordan, that thou turnest backward?

O! Atsiaƒu, nu ka ta nèsi ɖo, O! Yɔdan tɔsisi, nu ka ta nète yi megbe ɖo?

6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; ye hills, like young sheep?

Mi towo, nu ka ta mieti kpo abe agbowo ene, eye mi togbɛwo abe alẽviwo ene ɖo?

7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

O! Anyigba, dzo nyanyanya le Aƒetɔ la ŋkume, le Yakob ƒe Mawu la ŋkume,

8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

eya ame si trɔ agakpe wòzu tɔʋu kple agakpe sesẽ wòzu tsidzɔƒe.
