Psalms 114

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

Esi Israel do go tso Egipte, esi Yakob ƒe aƒe la do go tso gbe bubu gblɔlawo dome la,

2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his realm:

Yuda zu Mawu ƒe kɔkɔeƒe, eye Israel zu eƒe fiaɖuƒe.

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

Atsiaƒu kpɔe, eye wòsi dzo, Yɔdan tɔsisi hã te yi megbe.

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

Towo ti kpo abe agbowo ene, eye togbɛwo abe alẽviwo ene.

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

O! Atsiaƒu, nu ka ta nèsi ɖo, O! Yɔdan tɔsisi, nu ka ta nète yi megbe ɖo?

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

Mi towo, nu ka ta mieti kpo abe agbowo ene, eye mi togbɛwo abe alẽviwo ene ɖo?

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

O! Anyigba, dzo nyanyanya le Aƒetɔ la ŋkume, le Yakob ƒe Mawu la ŋkume,

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

eya ame si trɔ agakpe wòzu tɔʋu kple agakpe sesẽ wòzu tsidzɔƒe.
