< Zabbuli 114 >

1 Isirayiri bwe yava mu Misiri, abaana ba Yakobo abo, ne bava mu bantu abaayogeranga olulimi olutali lwabwe;
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2 Yuda n’afuuka omutukuvu wa Katonda, Isirayiri n’afuuka amatwale ge.
Judah was his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
3 Ennyanja bwe yabalaba n’edduka; Omugga Yoludaani ne gudda emabega.
The sea saw [it], and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4 Ensozi ne zibuukabuuka ng’endiga zisseddume, n’obusozi obutono ng’obuliga obuto.
The mountains skipped like rams, [and] the little hills like lambs.
5 Ggwe ennyanja, lwaki wadduka? Ggwe Yoludaani, lwaki wadda emabega?
What [ailed] thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, [that] thou wast driven back?
6 Mmwe ensozi, lwaki mwabuukabuuka ng’endiga zisseddume, nammwe obusozi obutono ng’obuliga obuto?
Ye mountains, [that] ye skipped like rams; [and] ye little hills, like lambs?
7 Kankana, ggwe ensi, mu maaso ga Mukama, mu maaso ga Katonda wa Yakobo,
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8 eyafuula olwazi ekidiba eky’amazzi, n’olwazi olugumu n’aluggyamu ensulo ez’amazzi.
Which turned the rock [into] a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
