Salamo 114

1 Ie niakatse e Mitsraime t’Israele, ty anjomba’ Iakobe boak’ am’ondaty hafa fisaontsio

At the time of the exodus of Israel from Egypt, when the descendants of Jacob left that foreign country,

2 le nanoe’e toetse miavake t’Iehodà naho boriza’e t’Israele.

the land of Judah became the Lord's sanctuary, Israel his kingdom.

3 Nañente i riakey, le nibioñe, nimpoly t’Iordane;

The Red Sea saw them and ran away; the Jordan River retreated.

4 Nitrekotreko hoe añondrilahy o vohitseo, hoe anak-añondry o tambohoo.

Mountains jumped in fright like rams, hills startled like lambs.

5 Akore, ry riakeo te mibioñe? ry Iordane, te miesoñe?

Red Sea—why did you run away? Jordan River—why did you retreat?

6 ry vohitseo, te mitsamboatsamboañe hoe añondrilahy, ry tamboho, hoe anak-añondry?

Mountains—why did you jump in fright? Hills—why did you startle like lambs?

7 Mihondrahondrà, ry tane toy, añatrefa’ i Talè, aolo’ i Andrianañahare’ Iakobey,

Earth, tremble in the presence of the Lord, tremble in the presence of the God of Jacob!

8 ie nampañova ty vato ho sihanake, i lamilamiy ho rano mifororoake.

He is the one who turned the rock into a pool of water; making water flow from the hard rock.
