Psalms 114

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:

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

2 Judea made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominion.

3 The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.

The sea saw it, and fled; the Jordan turned backward.

4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like the lambs of the flock.

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

5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O Jordan, that thou wast turned back?

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

6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs of the flock?

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

7 At the presence of the Lord the earth was moved, 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 pools of water, and the stony hill into fountains of waters.

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