< Psalms 114 >

1 When the Israeli [people] left Egypt, when they who were descendants of Jacob left people who spoke a foreign/different language,
Ke mwet Israel elos som liki acn Egypt, Ke tulik natul Jacob elos som liki mutunfacl lun mwetsac,
2 [the land of] Judah became the place where people worshiped God; and Israel became the land (OR, the [Israeli people] became the people) that he ruled over.
Mwet Judah elos tufah mwet mutal lun God, Ac mwet Israel elos tokosrai lal.
3 [When they came to] the [Red] Sea, [it was as though the water] saw [them] and ran away! When they came to the Jordan [River], that [water in the] river stopped flowing [so that the Israelis could cross it].
Meoa Srusra liye ac kaingla; Ac Infacl Jordan tui tila soror.
4 [When they came to Sinai Mountain and there was a big earthquake], [it was as though] the mountains skipped/jumped like goats do and the hills jumped around like lambs do.
Fineol uh srosro oana nani, Ac tohktok uh srooht sroma oana sheep fusr uh.
5 [If someone asks], “What happened at the [Red] Sea that caused the water to run away? What happened that caused [the water in] the Jordan [River] to stop flowing?
Meoa, mea sis kom kaing an? Ac kom, Infacl Jordan, efu kom ku tui tila soror?
6 What happened that caused the mountains to skip like goats and caused the hills to jump around like lambs?”
Kowos fineol uh, efu kowos ku srosro oana nani? Kowos acn tohktok uh, efu ku kowos srola oana sheep fusr?
7 [I would reply that] it was the presence of the Lord that caused those things to happen! [Everyone/Everything on] the earth should tremble in the presence of God, whom (Jacob [worshiped]/the Israeli people [worship])!
Faclu, kom in rarrar ke tuku lun LEUM GOD, Ye mutun God lal Jacob,
8 He is the one who caused pools of water [for the Israeli people to drink to flow] from a rock; he caused a spring [to flow] from a solid rock cliff!
Su ekulla eot nu ke lulu in kof, Ac eot in acn oatu nu ke unon in kof.
