< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
Kwathi ekuphumeni kuka-Israyeli eGibhithe, indlu kaJakhobe isuka ebantwini bolimi lwezizweni,
2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
uJuda waba yindlu engcwele kaNkulunkulu, u-Israyeli waba ngumbuso wakhe.
3 The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
Ulwandle lwakubona lwabaleka, iJodani yabuyela emuva.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
Izintaba zaqothuka njengenqama, amaqaqa enza njengamawundlu.
5 What ailed you, O you sea, that you fled? you Jordan, that you were driven back?
Kwakungani, we lwandle, wasuka wabaleka? Wena Jodani wabuyela emuva?
6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams; and you little hills, like lambs?
Lani zintaba laqolotsha njengenqama, lina maqaqa njengamawundlu?
7 Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
Thuthumela, we mhlaba, phambi kukaThixo, phambi kukaNkulunkulu kaJakhobe,
8 Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
owaphendula idwala laba lichibi, idwala eliqinileyo laba ngumthombo wamanzi.
