Psalms 114

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

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

2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.

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

3 The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.

Nyanja inaona ndi kuthawa, mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwerera mʼmbuyo;

4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.

mapiri analumphalumpha ngati nkhosa zazimuna, timapiri ngati ana ankhosa.

5 What ailed you, O you sea, that you fled? you Jordan, that you were driven back?

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

6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams; and you little hills, like lambs?

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

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

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

8 Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

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