< Psalms 114 >

1 Nígbà tí Israẹli jáde ní Ejibiti, ilé Jakọbu láti inú ènìyàn àjèjì èdè
At the time of the exodus of Israel from Egypt, when the descendants of Jacob left that foreign country,
2 Juda wà ní ibi mímọ́, Israẹli wà ní ìjọba.
the land of Judah became the Lord's sanctuary, Israel his kingdom.
3 Òkun sì rí i, ó sì wárìrì: Jordani sì padà sẹ́yìn.
The Red Sea saw them and ran away; the Jordan River retreated.
4 Àwọn òkè ńlá ń fò bí àgbò àti òkè kéékèèké bí ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn.
Mountains jumped in fright like rams, hills startled like lambs.
5 Kí ni ó ṣe ọ́, ìwọ Òkun, tí ìwọ fi wárìrì? Ìwọ Jordani, tí ìwọ fi padà sẹ́yìn?
Red Sea—why did you run away? Jordan River—why did you retreat?
6 Ẹ̀yin òkè ńlá kí ló dé ti ẹ fi ń fò bí àgbò, àti ẹ̀yin òkè kéékèèké bí ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn?
Mountains—why did you jump in fright? Hills—why did you startle like lambs?
7 Wárìrì, ìwọ ilẹ̀, níwájú Olúwa; ní iwájú Ọlọ́run Jakọbu
Earth, tremble in the presence of the Lord, tremble in the presence of the God of Jacob!
8 tí ó sọ àpáta di adágún omi, àti òkúta-ìbọn di orísun omi.
He is the one who turned the rock into a pool of water; making water flow from the hard rock.
