Psalmi 114

VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Alleluja. Dilexi, quoniam exaudiet Dominus vocem orationis meæ.	1 When Israel came forth from Egypt, the house of Jacob from an alien people,
2 Quia inclinavit aurem suam mihi, et in diebus meis invocabo.	2 Judah became God's holy place, Israel, God's domain.
3 Circumdederunt me dolores mortis ; et pericula inferni invenerunt me. Tribulationem et dolorem inveni,	3 The sea beheld and fled; the Jordan turned back.
4 et nomen Domini invocavi : o Domine, libera animam meam.	4 The mountains skipped like rams; the hills, like lambs of the flock.
5 Misericors Dominus et justus, et Deus noster miseretur.	5 Why was it, sea, that you fled? Jordan, that you turned back?
6 Custodiens parvulos Dominus ; humiliatus sum, et liberavit me.	6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You hills, like lambs of the flock?
7 Convertere, anima mea, in requiem tuam, quia Dominus benefecit tibi :	7 Tremble, earth, before the Lord, before the God of Jacob,
8 quia eripuit animam meam de morte, oculos meos a lacrimis, pedes meos a lapsu.	8 Who turned rock into pools of water, stone into flowing springs.
9 Placebo Domino in regione vivorum.
