< Salme 114 >

1 Halleluja! Da Israel drog fra Ægypten, Jakobs Hus fra det stammende Folk,
Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,
2 da blev Juda hans Helligdom, Israel blev hans Rige.
Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
3 Havet saa det og flyede, Jordan trak sig tilbage,
The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
4 Bjergene sprang som Vædre, Højene hopped som Lam.
The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.
5 Hvad fejler du, Hav, at du flyr, Jordan, hvi gaar du tilbage,
What [ailed] thee, O sea, that thou fleddest? and thou Jordan, that thou wast turned back?
6 hvi springer I Bjerge som Vædre, hvi hopper I Høje som Lam?
[Ye] mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and [ye] hills, like lambs?
7 Skælv, Jord, for HERRENS Aasyn, for Jakobs Guds Aasyn,
The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8 han, som gør Klipper til Vanddrag, til Kildevæld haarden Flint!
who turned the rock into pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.
