Psalms 114

1 When Israel left Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people who spoke a foreign language,

Rĩrĩa Isiraeli moimire bũrũri wa Misiri, nyũmba ya Jakubu ĩkiuma kũrĩ andũ a rũthiomi rũngĩ-rĩ,

2 Judah became his holy place, Israel his kingdom.

Juda gwatuĩkire handũ ha Ngai haamũre, na Isiraeli gũgĩtuĩka nĩkuo arĩathanaga.

3 The sea looked and fled; the Jordan turned back.

Iria rĩonire ũguo rĩkĩũra, naruo Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani rũgĩcooka na thuutha;

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

Irĩma igĩtũhatũũha ta ndũrũme, natuo tũrĩma tũgĩtũhatũũha ta tũgondu.

5 Why did you flee, sea? Jordan, why did you turn back?

Kaĩ wonire atĩa, wee iria, nĩguo ũre, nawe Jorodani, tondũ wacookire na thuutha?

6 Mountains, why did you skip like rams? You little hills, why did you skip like lambs?

Inyuĩ irĩma, muonete kĩ, nĩguo mũtũhatũũhe ta ndũrũme, na inyuĩ tũrĩma, nĩguo mũtũhatũũhe ta tũgondu?

7 Tremble, earth, before the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob.

Wee thĩ, ta kĩinaine ũrĩ mbere ya Mwathani, ũrĩ hau mbere ya Ngai ũcio wa Jakubu,

8 He turned the rock into a pool of water, the hard rock into a spring of water.

o we ũcio wagarũrire rwaro rwa ihiga rũgĩtuĩka karia ka maaĩ, narĩo ihiga rĩũmũ rĩgĩtuĩka ithima cia maaĩ.
