< Psalms 114 >
1 In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,
Halleluja! Da Israel drog fra Ægypten, Jakobs Hus fra det stammende Folk,
2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
da blev Juda hans Helligdom, Israel blev hans Rige.
3 The sea has seen, and flees, The Jordan turns backward.
Havet så det og flyede, Jordan trak sig tilbage,
4 The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.
Bjergene sprang som Vædre, Højene hopped som Lam.
5 What is [ailing] you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, you turn back!
Hvad fejler du, Hav, at du flyr, Jordan, hvi går du tilbage,
6 O mountains, you skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!
hvi springer I Bjerge som Vædre, hvi hopper I Høje som Lam?
7 From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,
Skælv, Jord, for HERRENs Åsyn, for Jakobs Guds Åsyn,
8 He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
han, som gør Klipper til Vanddrag, til Kildevæld hården Flint!
