Psalms 114

1 When Israel came forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from among a people of strange tongue,

Pamene Israeli anatuluka mu Igupto, nyumba ya Yakobo kuchoka ku mtundu wa anthu a chiyankhulo chachilendo,

2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his realm:

Yuda anasanduka malo opatulika a Mulungu, Israeli anasanduka ufumu wake.

3 The sea, beheld, and fled, The Jordan, turned back;

Nyanja inaona ndi kuthawa, mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwerera mʼmbuyo;

4 The mountains, started like rams, The hills like the young of the flock?

mapiri analumphalumpha ngati nkhosa zazimuna, timapiri ngati ana ankhosa.

5 What aileth thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, that thou turnest back?

Nʼchifukwa chiyani iwe unathawa? iwe mtsinje wa Yorodani unabwereranji mʼmbuyo?

6 Ye mountains, that ye start like rams? Ye hills, like the young of the flock?

inu mapiri, munalumphalumphiranji ngati nkhosa zazimuna, inu timapiri, ngati ana ankhosa?

7 Before the Lord, be in anguish, O earth, Before the GOD of Jacob:

Njenjemera pamaso pa Ambuye iwe dziko lapansi, pamaso pa Mulungu wa Yakobo,

8 Who turneth The Rock into a pool of water, The Flint into springs of water.

amene anasandutsa thanthwe kukhala chitsime, thanthwe lolimba kukhala akasupe a madzi.
