< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:
Halleluja! Da Israel drog fra Ægypten, Jakobs Hus fra det stammende Folk,
2 Judea made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
da blev Juda hans Helligdom, Israel blev hans Rige.
3 The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
Havet så det og flyede, Jordan trak sig tilbage,
4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like the lambs of the flock.
Bjergene sprang som Vædre, Højene hopped som Lam.
5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O Jordan, that thou wast turned back?
Hvad fejler du, Hav, at du flyr, Jordan, hvi går du tilbage,
6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs of the flock?
hvi springer I Bjerge som Vædre, hvi hopper I Høje som Lam?
7 At the presence of the Lord the earth was moved, at the presence of the God of Jacob:
Skælv, Jord, for HERRENs Åsyn, for Jakobs Guds Åsyn,
8 Who turned the rock into pools of water, and the stony hill into fountains of waters.
han, som gør Klipper til Vanddrag, til Kildevæld hården Flint!
