< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
عِنْدَ خُرُوجِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ مِصْرَ، وَآلِ يَعْقُوبَ مِنْ بَيْنِ شَعْبٍ غَرِيبِ اللِّسَانِ.١
2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
صَارَ يَهُوذَا هَيْكَلاً مُقَدَّساً لَهُ، وَإِسْرَائِيلُ مَقَرَّ سُلْطَانِهِ.٢
3 The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
رَأَى الْبَحْرُ الأَحْمَرُ ذَلِكَ فَهَرَبَ، وَتَرَاجَعَ نَهْرُ الأُرْدُنِّ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ.٣
4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
قَفَزَتِ الْجِبَالُ كَأَنَّهَا كِبَاشٌ، وَالتِّلالُ كَأَنَّهَا حُمْلانٌ.٤
5 What ailed you, O you sea, that you fled? you Jordan, that you were driven back?
مَالَكَ يَا بَحْرُ قَدْ هَرَبْتَ، وَيَا أُرْدُنُّ قَدْ رَجَعْتَ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ؟٥
6 All of you mountains, that all of you skipped like rams; and all of you little hills, like lambs?
مَالَكِ يَا جِبَالُ تَقْفِزِينَ كَالْكِبَاشِ، وَيَا تِلالُ كَالْحُمْلانِ؟٦
7 Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
تَزَلْزَلِي يَا أَرْضُ فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ.٧
8 Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
الَّذِي حَوَّلَ الصَّخْرَةَ إِلَى جَدَاوِلَ، وَالصَّوَّانَ إِلَى يَنَابِيعِ مِيَاهٍ.٨
