Giovanni Diodati 1649 (Italian) GDB
Good News Translation GNT
1 QUANDO Israele uscì di Egitto, E la casa di Giacobbe d’infra il popolo barbaro;
1
When the people of Israel left Egypt, when Jacob's descendants left that foreign land,
2 Giuda fu consacrato al Signore, Israele divenne suo dominio.
2
Judah became the Lord's holy people, Israel became his own possession.
3 Il mare lo vide, e fuggì; Il Giordano si rivolse a ritroso.
3
The Red Sea looked and ran away; the Jordan River stopped flowing.
4 I monti saltarono come montoni, I colli come agnelli.
4
The mountains skipped like goats; the hills jumped around like lambs.
5 Che avesti, o mare, che tu fuggisti? E tu, Giordano, che ti rivolgesti a ritroso?
5
What happened, Sea, to make you run away? And you, O Jordan, why did you stop flowing?
6 E voi, monti, che saltaste come montoni; E voi, colli, come agnelli?
6
You mountains, why did you skip like goats? You hills, why did you jump around like lambs?
7 Trema, o terra, per la presenza del Signore; Per la presenza dell’Iddio di Giacobbe;
7
Tremble, earth, at the Lord's coming, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 Il quale mutò la roccia in guazzo d’acqua, Il macigno in fonte d’acqua.
8
who changes rocks into pools of water and solid cliffs into flowing springs.
