< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, Jacob’s house from a barbarous people,
イスラエルの民エジプトをいで ヤコブのいへ異言の民をはなれしとき
2 God chose Judah for himself, Israel became his kingdom.
ユダはヱホバの聖所となりイスラエルはヱホバの所領となれり
3 The sea saw it, and fled, Jordan river ran backwards.
海はこれを見てにげヨルダンは後にしりぞき
4 Mountains skipped like rams, hills like the young of the flock.
山は牡羊のごとくをどり小山はこひつじのごとく躍れり
5 Why, sea, do you flee? Jordan, why run backwards?
海よなんぢ何とてにぐるやヨルダンよなんぢ何とて後にしりぞくや
6 Mountains, why skip ram-like? Why, hills, like the young of the flock?
山よなにとて牡羊のごとくをどるや小山よなにとて小羊のごとく躍るや
7 Earth, tremble before the Lord, at the presence of Jacob’s God,
地よ主のみまへヤコブの神の前にをののけ
8 who turns rocks into pools of water, and flint into fountains of water.
主はいはを池にかはらせ石をいづみに變らせたまへり

< Psalms 114 >
