< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of a foreign language;
Ekuphumeni kukaIsrayeli eGibhithe, indlu kaJakobe ebantwini bolimi lwezizwe,
2 Judah was his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
uJuda waba yindlu yakhe engcwele, uIsrayeli waba ngumbuso wakhe.
3 The sea saw [it], and fled: Jordan was driven back.
Ulwandle lwakubona lwabaleka, iJordani yabuyela emuva.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, [and] the little hills like lambs.
Intaba zaqolotsha njengezinqama, amaqaqa njengamawundlu.
5 What [ailed] thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, [that] thou wast driven back?
Ulani wena lwandle, ukuthi ubaleke? Wena Jordani, ukuthi ubuyele emuva?
6 Ye mountains, [that] ye skipped like rams; [and] ye little hills, like lambs?
Lina zintaba, ukuthi liqolotshe njengezinqama? Lina maqaqa, njengamawundlu?
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
Thuthumela, mhlaba, phambi kweNkosi, phambi kukaNkulunkulu kaJakobe,
8 Who turned the rock [into] a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
owaphendula idwalalibe lichibi lamanzi, ilitshe elilukhuni libe ngumthombo wamanzi.
