Psalms 114

1 When Israel came forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from among a people of strange tongue,

Alleluja. [In exitu Israël de Ægypto, domus Jacob de populo barbaro,

2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his realm:

facta est Judæa sanctificatio ejus; Israël potestas ejus.

3 The sea, beheld, and fled, The Jordan, turned back;

Mare vidit, et fugit; Jordanis conversus est retrorsum.

4 The mountains, started like rams, The hills like the young of the flock?

Montes exsultaverunt ut arietes, et colles sicut agni ovium.

5 What aileth thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, that thou turnest back?

Quid est tibi, mare, quod fugisti? et tu, Jordanis, quia conversus es retrorsum?

6 Ye mountains, that ye start like rams? Ye hills, like the young of the flock?

montes, exsultastis sicut arietes? et colles, sicut agni ovium?

7 Before the Lord, be in anguish, O earth, Before the GOD of Jacob:

A facie Domini mota est terra, a facie Dei Jacob:

8 Who turneth The Rock into a pool of water, The Flint into springs of water.

qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum, et rupem in fontes aquarum.
