< Psalms 114 >
1 When Israel went out of Egypt, and the house of Iaakob from the barbarous people,
Alleluia. In exitu Israel de Ægypto, domus Iacob de populo barbaro:
2 Iudah was his sanctification, and Israel his dominion.
Facta est Iudæa sanctificatio eius, Israel potestas eius.
3 The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.
Mare vidit, et fugit: Iordanis conversus est retrorsum.
4 The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.
Montes exultaverunt ut arietes: et colles sicut agni ovium.
5 What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?
Quid est tibi mare quod fugisti: et tu Iordanis, quia conversus es retrorsum?
6 Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?
Montes exultastis sicut arietes, et colles sicut agni ovium?
7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,
A facie Domini mota est terra, a facie Dei Iacob.
8 Which turneth the rocke into waterpooles, and the flint into a fountaine of water.
Qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum, et rupem in fontes aquarum.
