Psalms 114

1 Alleluia. At the departure of Israel from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:

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

2 Judea was made his sanctuary; Israel was made his power.

da blev Juda hans Helligdom, Israel blev hans Rige.

3 The sea looked, and it fled. The Jordan was turned back again.

Havet så det og flyede, Jordan trak sig tilbage,

4 The mountains exulted like rams, and the hills like lambs among the sheep.

Bjergene sprang som Vædre, Højene hopped som Lam.

5 What happened to you, O sea, so that you fled, and to you, O Jordan, so that you were turned back again?

Hvad fejler du, Hav, at du flyr, Jordan, hvi går du tilbage,

6 What happened to you, O mountains, so that you exulted like rams, and to you, O hills, so that you exulted like lambs among the sheep?

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

7 Before the face of the Lord, the earth was moved, before the face of the God of Jacob.

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

8 He converted the rock into pools of water, and the cliff into fountains of waters.

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