Psalms 114

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

2 Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;

The sea saw it, and fled; Jordan was driven back.

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

The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like young sheep.

5 What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?

What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?

6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?

Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; ye little hills, like young sheep?

7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

Which turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
