Psalms 114

1 When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of a strange language:

בְּצֵאת יִשְׂרָאֵל מִמִּצְרָיִם בֵּית יַעֲקֹב מֵעַם לֹעֵֽז׃

2 Judah became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.

הָיְתָה יְהוּדָה לְקָדְשׁוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל מַמְשְׁלוֹתָֽיו׃

3 The sea beheld it, and fled: the Jordan was driven backward.

הַיָּם רָאָה וַיָּנֹס הַיַּרְדֵּן יִסֹּב לְאָחֽוֹר׃

4 The mountains skipped like wethers, the hills like lambs.

הֶֽהָרִים רָקְדוּ כְאֵילִים גְּבָעוֹת כִּבְנֵי־צֹֽאן׃

5 What aileth thee, O sea, that thou fleest? thou, O Jordan, that thou art driven backward?

מַה־לְּךָ הַיָּם כִּי תָנוּס הַיַּרְדֵּן תִּסֹּב לְאָחֽוֹר׃

6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like wethers? ye hills, like lambs?

הֶֽהָרִים תִּרְקְדוּ כְאֵילִים גְּבָעוֹת כִּבְנֵי־צֹֽאן׃

7 At the presence of the Lord tremble, O earth, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

מִלִּפְנֵי אָדוֹן חוּלִי אָרֶץ מִלִּפְנֵי אֱלוֹהַּ יַעֲקֹֽב׃

8 Who changeth the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of water.

הַהֹפְכִי הַצּוּר אֲגַם־מָיִם חַלָּמִישׁ לְמַעְיְנוֹ־מָֽיִם׃
