< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel left Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people who spoke a foreign language,
alleluia in exitu Israhel de Aegypto domus Iacob de populo barbaro
2 Judah became his holy place, Israel his kingdom.
facta est Iudaea sanctificatio eius Israhel potestas eius
3 The sea looked and fled; the Jordan turned back.
mare vidit et fugit Iordanis conversus est retrorsum
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills skipped like lambs.
montes exultaverunt ut arietes colles sicut agni ovium
5 Why did you flee, sea? Jordan, why did you turn back?
quid est tibi mare quod fugisti et tu Iordanis quia conversus es retrorsum
6 Mountains, why did you skip like rams? You little hills, why did you skip like lambs?
montes exultastis sicut arietes et colles sicut agni ovium
7 Tremble, earth, before the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob.
a facie Domini mota est terra a facie Dei Iacob
8 He turned the rock into a pool of water, the hard rock into a spring of water.
qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum et rupem in fontes aquarum
