< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
בְּצֵאת יִשְׂרָאֵל מִמִּצְרָיִם בֵּית יַעֲקֹב מֵעַם לֹעֵֽז׃
2 Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
הָיְתָה יְהוּדָה לְקָדְשׁוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל מַמְשְׁלוֹתָֽיו׃
3 The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;
הַיָּם רָאָה וַיָּנֹס הַיַּרְדֵּן יִסֹּב לְאָחֽוֹר׃
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
הֶֽהָרִים רָקְדוּ כְאֵילִים גְּבָעוֹת כִּבְנֵי־צֹֽאן׃
5 What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?
מַה־לְּךָ הַיָּם כִּי תָנוּס הַיַּרְדֵּן תִּסֹּב לְאָחֽוֹר׃
6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?
הֶֽהָרִים תִּרְקְדוּ כְאֵילִים גְּבָעוֹת כִּבְנֵי־צֹֽאן׃
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
מִלִּפְנֵי אָדוֹן חוּלִי אָרֶץ מִלִּפְנֵי אֱלוֹהַּ יַעֲקֹֽב׃
8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
הַהֹפְכִי הַצּוּר אֲגַם־מָיִם חַלָּמִישׁ לְמַעְיְנוֹ־מָֽיִם׃
