< Psalms 114 >
1 In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,
Alleluia. In exitu Israel de Aegypto, domus Iacob de populo barbaro:
2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
Facta est Iudaea sanctificatio eius, Israel potestas eius.
3 The sea has seen, and flees, The Jordan turns backward.
Mare vidit, et fugit: Iordanis conversus est retrorsum.
4 The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.
Montes exultaverunt ut arietes: et colles sicut agni ovium.
5 What is [ailing] you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, you turn back!
Quid est tibi mare quod fugisti: et tu Iordanis, quia conversus es retrorsum?
6 O mountains, you skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!
Montes exultastis sicut arietes, et colles sicut agni ovium?
7 From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,
A facie Domini mota est terra, a facie Dei Iacob.
8 He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
Qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum, et rupem in fontes aquarum.
