Psalms 114

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, and the house of Iaakob from the barbarous people,

Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,

2 Iudah was his sanctification, and Israel his dominion.

Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.

3 The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.

The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.

4 The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.

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

5 What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?

What [ailed] thee, O sea, that thou fleddest? and thou Jordan, that thou wast turned back?

6 Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?

[Ye] mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and [ye] hills, like lambs?

7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,

The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

8 Which turneth the rocke into waterpooles, and the flint into a fountaine of water.

who turned the rock into pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.
