< 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, and Israel his dominion.
3 The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.
The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4 The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.
The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5 What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?
What ailed you, O you sea, that you fled? you Jordan, that you were driven back?
6 Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?
All of you mountains, that all of you skipped like rams; and all of you little hills, like lambs?
7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,
Tremble, you 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.
Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
