< Psalms 114 >
1 Alleluya. In the goyng out of Israel fro Egipt; of the hous of Jacob fro the hethene puple.
When Israel went forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2 Judee was maad the halewyng of hym; Israel the power of hym.
Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3 The see siy, and fledde; Jordan was turned abac.
The sea saw it, and fled; The Jordan was driven back.
4 Munteyns ful out ioyeden as rammes; and litle hillis as the lambren of scheep.
The mountains skipped like rams, The little hills like lambs.
5 Thou see, what was to thee, for thou fleddist; and thou, Jordan, for thou were turned abak?
What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?
6 Munteyns, ye maden ful out ioye as rammes; and litle hillis, as the lambren of scheep.
Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; Ye little hills, like lambs?
7 The erthe was moued fro the face of `the Lord; fro the face of God of Jacob.
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 Which turnede a stoon in to pondis of watris; and an hard rooch in to wellis of watris.
Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of waters.
