< Psalms 114 >

1 Alleluya. In the goyng out of Israel fro Egipt; of the hous of Jacob fro the hethene puple.
When Israel left Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people who spoke a foreign language,
2 Judee was maad the halewyng of hym; Israel the power of hym.
Judah became his holy place, Israel his kingdom.
3 The see siy, and fledde; Jordan was turned abac.
The sea looked and fled; the Jordan turned back.
4 Munteyns ful out ioyeden as rammes; and litle hillis as the lambren of scheep.
The mountains skipped like rams, the hills skipped like lambs.
5 Thou see, what was to thee, for thou fleddist; and thou, Jordan, for thou were turned abak?
Why did you flee, sea? Jordan, why did you turn back?
6 Munteyns, ye maden ful out ioye as rammes; and litle hillis, as the lambren of scheep.
Mountains, why did you skip like rams? You little hills, why did you skip like lambs?
7 The erthe was moued fro the face of `the Lord; fro the face of God of Jacob.
Tremble, earth, before 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.
He turned the rock into a pool of water, the hard rock into a spring of water.
