< Psalms 114 >
1 When went out Israel from Egypt [the] house of Jacob from a people speaking a foreign language.
When Israel came out of Egypt, the children of Jacob from a people whose language was strange to them;
2 It became Judah sanctuary his Israel dominion his.
Judah became his holy place, and Israel his kingdom.
3 The sea it saw and it fled the Jordan it turned around to backwards.
The sea saw it, and went in flight; Jordan was turned back.
4 The mountains they skipped about like rams hills like young ones of sheep.
The mountains were jumping like goats, and the little hills like lambs.
5 What? [is] to you O sea that you will flee O Jordan you will turn around to backwards.
What was wrong with you, O sea, that you went in flight? O Jordan, that you were turned back?
6 O mountains you will skip about like rams O hills like young ones of sheep.
You mountains, why were you jumping like goats, and you little hills like lambs?
7 From to before [the] lord tremble O earth from to before [the] God of Jacob.
Be troubled, O earth, before the Lord, before the God of Jacob;
8 Who turned the rock a pool of water flint into spring of his water.
Who made the rock into a water-spring, and the hard stone into a fountain.
