Psalms 114

1 In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,

Då Israel drog ut or Egyptarland, Jakobs hus frå eit folk med framand tunga,

2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

då vart Juda hans heilagdom, Israel hans rike.

3 The sea has seen, and flees, The Jordan turns backward.

Havet såg det og flydde, Jordan drog seg attende.

4 The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.

Fjelli hoppa som verar, haugarne som lamb.

5 What is [ailing] you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, you turn back!

Kva hev hendt deg, hav, at du flyr? du Jordan, at du dreg deg attende?

6 O mountains, you skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!

de fjell, at de hoppar som verar, de haugar som lamb?

7 From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,

For Herrens åsyn må du skjelva, jord, for Jakobs Guds åsyn!

8 He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!

Han som gjer berget til ein sjø, harde steinen til ei vatskjelda.
