< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel came forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from among a people of strange tongue,
‌ʻI he ʻalu atu ʻa ʻIsileli mei ʻIsipite, ko e fale ʻo Sēkope mei he kakai ʻoe lea kehe;
2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his realm:
Ko hono faletapu ʻa Siuta, mo hono puleʻanga ʻa ʻIsileli.
3 The sea, beheld, and fled, The Jordan, turned back;
Naʻe mamata ki ai ʻae tahi, pea hola ai: naʻe tekeʻi atu ʻo fakaholomui ʻa Sioatani.
4 The mountains, started like rams, The hills like the young of the flock?
Naʻe hopohopo ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipitangata, mo e ngaahi foʻi moʻunga ʻo hangē ko e fanga lami.
5 What aileth thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, that thou turnest back?
Ko e hā naʻe hoko kiate koe, ʻa koe ko e tahi, koeʻuhi naʻa ke hola ai? ʻA koe Sioatani, koeʻuhi ke tekeʻi atu ʻo fakaholomui koe?
6 Ye mountains, that ye start like rams? Ye hills, like the young of the flock?
‌ʻAe ngaahi moʻunga, koeʻuhi naʻa mou hopohopo ai ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipitangata; mo kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi foʻi moʻunga, ʻo hangē ko e fanga lami?
7 Before the Lord, be in anguish, O earth, Before the GOD of Jacob:
‌ʻA koe ko māmani, ke ke tetetete ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope;
8 Who turneth The Rock into a pool of water, The Flint into springs of water.
‌ʻAia naʻa ne liliu ʻae maka ko e anovai, mo e maka afi ko e matavai.
