Psalmorum 114

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

When Israel went out of Egypt, and the house of Iaakob from the barbarous people,

2 Facta est Iudaea sanctificatio eius, Israel potestas eius.

Iudah was his sanctification, and Israel his dominion.

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

The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.

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

The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.

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

What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?

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

Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?

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

The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,

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

Which turneth the rocke into waterpooles, and the flint into a fountaine of water.
