< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, and the house of Iaakob from the barbarous people,
Lè pèp Izrayèl la te soti nan peyi Lejip, lè pitit pitit Jakòb yo te kite peyi etranje yo,
2 Iudah was his sanctification, and Israel his dominion.
Bondye chwazi branch fanmi Jida a pou pèp li, moun Izrayèl yo pou byen pa l'.
3 The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.
Lè Lanmè Wouj la wè l', li pran kouri san gad dèyè. Larivyè Jouden sispann koule desann.
4 The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.
Mòn yo sote ponpe tankou bouk kabrit, ti mòn yo sote ponpe tankou ti mouton.
5 What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?
Kisak pase ou, lanmè, kifè ou pran kouri konsa? Ou menm larivyè Jouden, kisak rive ou kifè ou sispann koule?
6 Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?
Nou menm mòn yo, sa nou genyen pou n'ap sote ponpe konsa tankou bouk kabrit? Nou menm ti mòn yo, poukisa n'ap sote ponpe tankou ti mouton?
7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,
Ou menm latè, tranble devan Seyè a, devan Bondye Jakòb la.
8 Which turneth the rocke into waterpooles, and the flint into a fountaine of water.
Se li menm ki fè gwo wòch la tounen yon basen dlo, li fè wòch la tounen yon sous dlo.
