Sabuurradii 114

1 Markay reer binu Israa'iil Masar ka soo bexeen, Oo ay reerkii Yacquub dad af qalaad ka soo bexeen,

When Israel left Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people who spoke a foreign language,

2 Ayaa Yahuudah noqday meeshiisa quduuska ah, Israa'iilna noqday meeshuu u talinayay.

Judah became his holy place, Israel his kingdom.

3 Baddii way aragtay, wayna carartay, Webi Urdunna dib baa loo celiyey.

The sea looked and fled; the Jordan turned back.

4 Buurihii waxay u boodboodeen sidii wanan, Kurihiina sidii baraar.

The mountains skipped like rams, the hills skipped like lambs.

5 Baddoy, bal maxaa kugu dhacay oo aad u cararaysaa? Webi Urdunow, maxaad dib ugu noqonaysaa?

Why did you flee, sea? Jordan, why did you turn back?

6 Buurahow, bal maxaad ugu boodboodaysaan sida wanan? Kuraha yaryarow, bal maxaad ugu boodboodaysaan sida baraar?

Mountains, why did you skip like rams? You little hills, why did you skip like lambs?

7 Dhulkow, ku gariir Sayidka hortiisa, Ilaaha reer Yacquub hortiisa ku gariir,

Tremble, earth, before the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob.

8 Kaas oo dhagaxii u beddelay balli biyo ah, Oo dhagaxmadowgiina u beddelay il biyo ah.

He turned the rock into a pool of water, the hard rock into a spring of water.
