Psalms 114

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

Kwathi ekuphumeni kuka-Israyeli eGibhithe, indlu kaJakhobe isuka ebantwini bolimi lwezizweni,

2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

uJuda waba yindlu engcwele kaNkulunkulu, u-Israyeli waba ngumbuso wakhe.

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

Ulwandle lwakubona lwabaleka, iJodani yabuyela emuva.

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

Izintaba zaqothuka njengenqama, amaqaqa enza njengamawundlu.

5 What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?

Kwakungani, we lwandle, wasuka wabaleka? Wena Jodani wabuyela emuva?

6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams; 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 who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.

owaphendula idwala laba lichibi, idwala eliqinileyo laba ngumthombo wamanzi.
