Psalms, 114

1. I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.

1. Quando Israele uscì dall'Egitto, la casa di Giacobbe di mezzo a un popolo straniero,

2. Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.

2. Giuda diventò il suo santuario, Israele il suo dominio.

3. The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow:

3. Il mare vide e se ne fuggì, il Giordano si volse indietro;

4. and I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.

4. i monti saltellarono come arieti, le colline come agnelli d'un gregge.

5. The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.

5. Che hai tu, mare, che fuggi, e tu, Giordano, che ti volgi indietro?

6. The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me.

6. Perché voi, monti, saltellate come arieti, e voi, colline, come agnelli d'un gregge?

7. Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.

7. Trema, o terra, davanti al Signore, davanti al Dio di Giacobbe:

8. For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.

8. egli muta la rupe in stagno, una roccia in sorgente d'acqua.

9. I will please the Lord in the land of the living.

9.
