< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, and the house of Iaakob from the barbarous people,
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2 Iudah was his sanctification, and Israel his dominion.
Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3 The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.
The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;
4 The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.
The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
5 What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?
What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?
6 Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?
Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?
7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,
Tremble, thou earth, 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 a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
