< Psalms 114 >
1 Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,
Alleluia. In exitu Israel de Ægypto, domus Iacob de populo barbaro:
2 Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
Facta est Iudæa sanctificatio eius, Israel potestas eius.
3 The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
Mare vidit, et fugit: Iordanis conversus est retrorsum.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.
Montes exultaverunt ut arietes: et colles sicut agni ovium.
5 What [ailed] you, O sea, that you fled? and you Jordan, that you were turned back?
Quid est tibi mare quod fugisti: et tu Iordanis, quia conversus es retrorsum?
6 [You] mountains, that you skipped like rams, and [you] hills, like lambs?
Montes exultastis sicut arietes, et colles sicut agni ovium?
7 The earth trembled 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 pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.
Qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum, et rupem in fontes aquarum.
