Psalmorum 114

1 Alleluia. In exitu Israel de Ægypto, domus Iacob de populo barbaro:

In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,

2 Facta est Iudæa sanctificatio eius, Israel potestas eius.

Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 Mare vidit, et fugit: Iordanis conversus est retrorsum.

The sea has seen, and flees, The Jordan turns backward.

4 Montes exultaverunt ut arietes: et colles sicut agni ovium.

The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.

5 Quid est tibi mare quod fugisti: et tu Iordanis, quia conversus es retrorsum?

What is [ailing] you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, you turn back!

6 Montes exultastis sicut arietes, et colles sicut agni ovium?

O mountains, you skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!

7 A facie Domini mota est terra, a facie Dei Iacob.

From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,

8 Qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum, et rupem in fontes aquarum.

He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
