Psalms 114

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

Israeri akati abuda muIjipiti, imba yaJakobho ichibva kurudzi runo mutauro wokumwe,

2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his realm:

Judha akava imba tsvene yaMwari, Israeri ushe hwake.

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

Gungwa rakazviona rikatiza, Jorodhani rwakadzokera shure;

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

makomo akakwakuka samakondobwe, zvikomo samakwayana.

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

Haiwa gungwa, wakatizeiko, iwe Jorodhani zvawakadzokera shure,

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

imi makomo zvamakakwakuka samakondobwe, nemi zvikomo, samakwayana?

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

Dedera, iwe nyika pamberi paShe, pamberi paMwari waJakobho,

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

akashandura dombo rikava dziva, dombo rakaoma rikava matsime emvura.
