< 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 foreign language,
2 Juda te vin sanktiyè Li a, Israël, wayòm Li.
Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3 Lanmè a te gade e te sove ale. Jourdain an te vire fè bak.
The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.
4 Mòn yo te sote tankou belye, kolin yo tankou ti mouton.
The mountains skipped like rams, 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 was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?
6 O mòn yo, ke ou sote tankou belye konsa? O kolin yo, tankou ti mouton konsa?
You mountains, that you skipped like rams? 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.
who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
