Psalms 114

1 Nígbà tí Israẹli jáde ní Ejibiti, ilé Jakọbu láti inú ènìyàn àjèjì èdè

When Israel went out of Egypt, Jacob’s house from a barbarous people,

2 Juda wà ní ibi mímọ́, Israẹli wà ní ìjọba.

God chose Judah for himself, Israel became his kingdom.

3 Òkun sì rí i, ó sì wárìrì: Jordani sì padà sẹ́yìn.

The sea saw it, and fled, Jordan river ran backwards.

4 Àwọn òkè ńlá ń fò bí àgbò àti òkè kéékèèké bí ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn.

Mountains skipped like rams, hills like the young of the flock.

5 Kí ni ó ṣe ọ́, ìwọ Òkun, tí ìwọ fi wárìrì? Ìwọ Jordani, tí ìwọ fi padà sẹ́yìn?

Why, sea, do you flee? Jordan, why run backwards?

6 Ẹ̀yin òkè ńlá kí ló dé ti ẹ fi ń fò bí àgbò, àti ẹ̀yin òkè kéékèèké bí ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn?

Mountains, why skip ram-like? Why, hills, like the young of the flock?

7 Wárìrì, ìwọ ilẹ̀, níwájú Olúwa; ní iwájú Ọlọ́run Jakọbu

Earth, tremble before the Lord, at the presence of Jacob’s God,

8 tí ó sọ àpáta di adágún omi, àti òkúta-ìbọn di orísun omi.

who turns rocks into pools of water, and flint into fountains of water.
