Zaburi 114

1 Israeli ilipotoka Misri, na nyumba ya Yakobo toka kutoka katika wale watu wa kigeni,

When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language,

2 Yuda ilifanyika kuwa mahali pake patakatifu, Ufalme wa Israeli.

Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 Bahari iliona ikakimbia; Yordani ilirudi nyuma.

The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.

4 Milima iliruka kama kondoo waume, vilima viliruka kama wana-kondoo.

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

5 Ewe Bahari kwa nini ulikimbia? Yordani kwa nini ulirudi nyuma?

What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?

6 Milima, kwa nini uliruka kama kondoo waume? Enyi vilima wadogo, kwa nini mliruka kama wana-kondoo?

You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You little hills, like lambs?

7 Tetemeka, ee nchi, mbele za Bwana, uweponi mwa Mungu wa Yakobo.

Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

8 Aligeuza mwamba kuwa ziwa la maji, jiwe gumu kuwa chemchem.

who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
