Salme 114

1 Halleluja! Da Israel drog fra Ægypten, Jakobs Hus fra det stammende Folk,

When Israel came forth from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

2 da blev Juda hans Helligdom, Israel blev hans Rige.

Judah was his sanctuary, And Israel his dominion.

3 Havet så det og flyede, Jordan trak sig tilbage,

The sea beheld, and fled; The Jordan 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 går du tilbage,

What aileth thee, O thou sea! that thou fleest? Thou, Jordan, that thou runnest back?

6 hvi springer I Bjerge som Vædre, hvi hopper I Høje som Lam?

Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams, And ye hills like lambs?

7 Skælv, Jord, for HERRENs Åsyn, for Jakobs Guds Åsyn,

Tremble, O earth! at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob;

8 han, som gør Klipper til Vanddrag, til Kildevæld hården Flint!

Who turned the rock into a standing lake, And the flint into a fountain of water!
