< Zaburi 114 >
1 Wakati Israeli walipotoka Misri, nyumba ya Yakobo kutoka kwa watu wa lugha ngeni,
Pamene Israeli anatuluka mu Igupto, nyumba ya Yakobo kuchoka ku mtundu wa anthu a chiyankhulo chachilendo,
2 Yuda alifanywa makao matakatifu ya Mungu, Israeli akawa milki yake.
Yuda anasanduka malo opatulika a Mulungu, Israeli anasanduka ufumu wake.
3 Bahari ilitazama ikakimbia, Yordani ulirudi nyuma,
Nyanja inaona ndi kuthawa, mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwerera mʼmbuyo;
4 milima ilirukaruka kama kondoo dume, vilima kama wana-kondoo.
mapiri analumphalumpha ngati nkhosa zazimuna, timapiri ngati ana ankhosa.
5 Ee bahari, ni nini kilichokufanya ukakimbia, nawe, ee Yordani, ukarudi nyuma,
Nʼchifukwa chiyani iwe unathawa? iwe mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwereranji mʼmbuyo?
6 enyi milima mkarukaruka kama kondoo dume, enyi vilima, kama wana-kondoo?
inu mapiri, munalumphalumphiranji ngati nkhosa zazimuna, inu timapiri, ngati ana ankhosa?
7 Ee dunia, tetemeka mbele za Bwana, mbele za Mungu wa Yakobo,
Njenjemera pamaso pa Ambuye iwe dziko lapansi, pamaso pa Mulungu wa Yakobo,
8 aliyegeuza mwamba kuwa dimbwi la maji, mwamba mgumu kuwa chemchemi za maji.
amene anasandutsa thanthwe kukhala chitsime, thanthwe lolimba kukhala akasupe a madzi.
