< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel came forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
Israeri akati abuda muIjipiti, imba yaJakobho ichibva kurudzi runo mutauro wokumwe,
2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominion.
Judha akava imba tsvene yaMwari, Israeri ushe hwake.
3 The sea saw it, and fled; the Jordan turned backward.
Gungwa rakazviona rikatiza, Jorodhani rwakadzokera shure;
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like young sheep.
makomo akakwakuka samakondobwe, zvikomo samakwayana.
5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? thou Jordan, that thou turnest backward?
Haiwa gungwa, wakatizeiko, iwe Jorodhani zvawakadzokera shure,
6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; ye hills, like young sheep?
imi makomo zvamakakwakuka samakondobwe, nemi zvikomo, samakwayana?
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
Dedera, iwe nyika pamberi paShe, pamberi paMwari waJakobho,
8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
akashandura dombo rikava dziva, dombo rakaoma rikava matsime emvura.
