Psalms 114

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

Israeli ilipotoka Misri, na nyumba ya Yakobo toka kutoka katika wale watu wa kigeni,

2 Judah became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.

Yuda ilifanyika kuwa mahali pake patakatifu, Ufalme wa Israeli.

3 The sea beheld it, and fled: the Jordan was driven backward.

Bahari iliona ikakimbia; Yordani ilirudi nyuma.

4 The mountains skipped like wethers, the hills like lambs.

Milima iliruka kama kondoo waume, vilima viliruka kama wana-kondoo.

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

Ewe Bahari kwa nini ulikimbia? Yordani kwa nini ulirudi nyuma?

6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like wethers? ye hills, like lambs?

Milima, kwa nini uliruka kama kondoo waume? Enyi vilima wadogo, kwa nini mliruka kama wana-kondoo?

7 At the presence of the Lord tremble, O earth, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

Tetemeka, ee nchi, mbele za Bwana, uweponi mwa Mungu wa Yakobo.

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

Aligeuza mwamba kuwa ziwa la maji, jiwe gumu kuwa chemchem.
