< Zaburi 114 >

1 Israeli ilipotoka Misri, na nyumba ya Yakobo toka kutoka katika wale watu wa kigeni,
In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,
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 hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.
4 Milima iliruka kama kondoo waume, vilima viliruka kama wana-kondoo.
The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.
5 Ewe Bahari kwa nini ulikimbia? Yordani kwa nini ulirudi nyuma?
What — to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou turnest back!
6 Milima, kwa nini uliruka kama kondoo waume? Enyi vilima wadogo, kwa nini mliruka kama wana-kondoo?
O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!
7 Tetemeka, ee nchi, mbele za Bwana, uweponi mwa Mungu wa Yakobo.
From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,
8 Aligeuza mwamba kuwa ziwa la maji, jiwe gumu kuwa chemchem.
He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
