Zaburi 114

1 Wakati Israeli walipotoka Misri, nyumba ya Yakobo kutoka kwa watu wa lugha ngeni,

When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:

2 Yuda alifanywa makao matakatifu ya Mungu, Israeli akawa milki yake.

Judea made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 Bahari ilitazama ikakimbia, Yordani ulirudi nyuma,

The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.

4 milima ilirukaruka kama kondoo dume, vilima kama wana-kondoo.

The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like the lambs of the flock.

5 Ee bahari, ni nini kilichokufanya ukakimbia, nawe, ee Yordani, ukarudi nyuma,

What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O Jordan, that thou wast turned back?

6 enyi milima mkarukaruka kama kondoo dume, enyi vilima, kama wana-kondoo?

Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs of the flock?

7 Ee dunia, tetemeka mbele za Bwana, mbele za Mungu wa Yakobo,

At the presence of the Lord the earth was moved, at the presence of the God of Jacob:

8 aliyegeuza mwamba kuwa dimbwi la maji, mwamba mgumu kuwa chemchemi za maji.

Who turned the rock into pools of water, and the stony hill into fountains of waters.
