< Salmi 114 >

1 Quando Israele uscì dall'Egitto, la casa di Giacobbe da un popolo barbaro, Alleluia.
Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,
2 Giuda divenne il suo santuario, Israele il suo dominio.
Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
3 Il mare vide e si ritrasse, il Giordano si volse indietro,
The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
4 i monti saltellarono come arieti, le colline come agnelli di un gregge.
The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.
5 Che hai tu, mare, per fuggire, e tu, Giordano, perché torni indietro?
What [ailed] you, O sea, that you fled? and you Jordan, that you were turned back?
6 Perché voi monti saltellate come arieti e voi colline come agnelli di un gregge?
[You] mountains, that you skipped like rams, and [you] hills, like lambs?
7 Trema, o terra, davanti al Signore, davanti al Dio di Giacobbe,
The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8 che muta la rupe in un lago, la roccia in sorgenti d'acqua.
who turned the rock into pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.
