Abụ Ọma 114

1 Mgbe ụmụ Izrel si nʼala Ijipt pụta, mgbe ezinaụlọ Jekọb sitekwara nʼebe ndị asụsụ ha dị iche pụta,

When Israel went out of Egypt, and the house of Iaakob from the barbarous people,

2 Juda ghọrọ ebe nsọ Chineke, Izrel ghọrọ ala ọ na-achị.

Iudah was his sanctification, and Israel his dominion.

3 Osimiri hụrụ ya, gbaa ọsọ, osimiri Jọdan hụkwara ya chigharịa laa azụ;

The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.

4 Ugwu ukwu niile wụliri elu dịka ebule; ugwu nta niile wụlikwara elu dịka ụmụ atụrụ.

The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.

5 Gịnị mere gị oke osimiri, i ji na-agba ọsọ? Osimiri Jọdan, gịnị na-eme gị i ji chigharịa laa azụ?

What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?

6 Gịnị na-eme unu, ugwu ukwu niile unu ji na-awụli elu dịka ụmụ ebule? Gịnị na-emekwa unu, ugwu nta niile, unu ji na-awụli elu dịka ụmụ atụrụ?

Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?

7 Ka ụwa niile maa jijiji nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ka ọ maakwa jijiji nʼihu Chineke nke Jekọb,

The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,

8 onye mere ka oke nkume ghọọ ọdọ mmiri, onye mere ka ọmụ nkume ghọọ isi iyi mmiri.

Which turneth the rocke into waterpooles, and the flint into a fountaine of water.
