Psalm 114 – NIRV & CCBT

New International Reader’s Version

Psalm 114:1-8

Psalm 114

1The people of Israel came out of Egypt.

The people of Jacob left a land where a different language was spoken.

2Then Judah became the holy place where God lived.

Israel became the land he ruled over.

3The Red Sea saw him and parted.

The Jordan River stopped flowing.

4The mountains leaped like rams.

The hills skipped like lambs.

5Red Sea, why did you part?

Jordan River, why did you stop flowing?

6Why did you mountains leap like rams?

Why did you hills skip like lambs?

7Earth, tremble with fear when the Lord comes.

Tremble when the God of Jacob is near.

8He turned the rock into a pool.

He turned the hard rock into springs of water.

詩篇 114:1-8

第 114 篇

逾越節之歌

1以色列人離開埃及

雅各家從異國出來時,

2猶大成為上帝的聖所,

以色列成為祂的國度。

3大海看見他們就奔逃,

約旦河也倒流。

4大山如公羊一般跳躍,

小山像羊羔一樣蹦跳。

5大海啊,你為何奔逃?

約旦河啊,你為何倒流?

6大山啊,你為何如公羊一般跳躍?

小山啊,你為何像羊羔一樣蹦跳?

7大地啊,你要在主面前,

雅各的上帝面前戰抖,

8因為祂使磐石變成水池,

使岩石湧出泉水。
