< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language;
Esi Israel do go tso Egipte, esi Yakob ƒe aƒe la do go tso gbe bubu gblɔlawo dome la,
2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
Yuda zu Mawu ƒe kɔkɔeƒe, eye Israel zu eƒe fiaɖuƒe.
3 The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.
Atsiaƒu kpɔe, eye wòsi dzo, Yɔdan tɔsisi hã te yi megbe.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.
Towo ti kpo abe agbowo ene, eye togbɛwo abe alẽviwo ene.
5 What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?
O! Atsiaƒu, nu ka ta nèsi ɖo, O! Yɔdan tɔsisi, nu ka ta nète yi megbe ɖo?
6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams; you little hills, like lambs?
Mi towo, nu ka ta mieti kpo abe agbowo ene, eye mi togbɛwo abe alẽviwo ene ɖo?
7 Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
O! Anyigba, dzo nyanyanya le Aƒetɔ la ŋkume, le Yakob ƒe Mawu la ŋkume,
8 who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
eya ame si trɔ agakpe wòzu tɔʋu kple agakpe sesẽ wòzu tsidzɔƒe.
