Psalms 114

1 Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,

Als Israel Ägypten und Jakobs Haus das fremde Volk verließ,

2 Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.

da ward Juda sein Heiligtum und Israel sein Reich.

3 The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.

Dies sah das Meer und floh; der Jordan ging zurück.

4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.

Die Berge hüpften gleich den Widdern, die Hügel wie die Lämmer. -

5 What [ailed] you, O sea, that you fled? and you Jordan, that you were turned back?

Was ist dir, Meer? Du fliehst. Was, Jordan, dir? Du gehst zurück.

6 [You] mountains, that you skipped like rams, and [you] hills, like lambs?

Euch Bergen, daß ihr gleich den Widdern, euch Hügeln, daß ihr gleich den Lämmern hüpfet; -

7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

Erbebe, Erde, vor dem Herrn, vor Jakobs Gott,

8 who turned the rock into pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.

der Fels in See und Kies in Quellgrund wandelt!
