< Sòm 114 >

1 Lè Israël te sòti an Égypte, lakay Jacob soti de yon pèp lang etranje,
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2 Juda te vin sanktiyè Li a, Israël, wayòm Li.
Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3 Lanmè a te gade e te sove ale. Jourdain an te vire fè bak.
The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4 Mòn yo te sote tankou belye, kolin yo tankou ti mouton.
The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5 Sa k pase ou menm, O lanmè, ke ou te sove ale konsa? O Jourdain an, ke Ou te vire fè bak konsa?
What ailed you, O you sea, that you fled? you Jordan, that you were driven back?
6 O mòn yo, ke ou sote tankou belye konsa? O kolin yo, tankou ti mouton konsa?
All of you mountains, that all of you skipped like rams; and all of you little hills, like lambs?
7 Pran tranble, O latè, devan SENYÈ a, Devan Bondye a Jacob la,
Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8 Ki te fè wòch la devni yon ma dlo, wòch silèks la yon sous k ap koule.
Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
