< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
alleluia in exitu Israhel de Aegypto domus Iacob de populo barbaro
2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
facta est Iudaea sanctificatio eius Israhel potestas eius
3 The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.
mare vidit et fugit Iordanis conversus est retrorsum
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.
montes exultaverunt ut arietes colles sicut agni ovium
5 What ails thee, O thou sea, that thou flee? Thou Jordan, that thou turn back?
quid est tibi mare quod fugisti et tu Iordanis quia conversus es retrorsum
6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams, ye little hills, like lambs?
montes exultastis sicut arietes et colles sicut agni ovium
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
a facie Domini mota est terra a facie Dei Iacob
8 who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum et rupem in fontes aquarum
