Faarfannaa 114

1 Yeroo sabni Israaʼel biyya Gibxii, manni Yaaqoobis saba afaan ormaa dubbatu keessaa baʼetti,

In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,

2 Yihuudaan mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa, Israaʼel immoo bulchiinsa isaa taʼe.

Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 Galaanni argee baqate; Yordaanosis duubatti deebiʼe;

The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.

4 tulluuwwan akka korbeeyyii hoolaa, gaarranis akkuma xobbaallaawwan hoolaa burraaqan.

The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.

5 Yaa galaana, ati maaliif baqatte? Yaa Yordaanos, atis maaliif duubatti deebite?

What — to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou turnest back!

6 Yaa tulluuwwan, isin maaliif akka korbeeyyii hoolaa, yaa gaarran isinis maaliif akka xobbaallaawwan hoolaa burraaqxu?

O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!

7 Yaa lafa, fuula Gooftaa duratti, fuula Waaqa Yaaqoob duratti holladhu;

From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,

8 inni kattaa gara harootti, kattaa jabaa immoo gara burqaa bishaaniitti geeddare.

He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
