Psalms 114

1 At the time of the exodus of Israel from Egypt, when the descendants of Jacob left that foreign country,

alleluia in exitu Israhel de Aegypto domus Iacob de populo barbaro

2 the land of Judah became the Lord's sanctuary, Israel his kingdom.

facta est Iudaea sanctificatio eius Israhel potestas eius

3 The Red Sea saw them and ran away; the Jordan River retreated.

mare vidit et fugit Iordanis conversus est retrorsum

4 Mountains jumped in fright like rams, hills startled like lambs.

montes exultaverunt ut arietes colles sicut agni ovium

5 Red Sea—why did you run away? Jordan River—why did you retreat?

quid est tibi mare quod fugisti et tu Iordanis quia conversus es retrorsum

6 Mountains—why did you jump in fright? Hills—why did you startle like lambs?

montes exultastis sicut arietes et colles sicut agni ovium

7 Earth, tremble in the presence of the Lord, tremble in the presence of the God of Jacob!

a facie Domini mota est terra a facie Dei Iacob

8 He is the one who turned the rock into a pool of water; making water flow from the hard rock.

qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum et rupem in fontes aquarum
