< Psalmorum 114 >
1 alleluia in exitu Israhel de Aegypto domus Iacob de populo barbaro
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2 facta est Iudaea sanctificatio eius Israhel potestas eius
Judah was his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.
3 mare vidit et fugit Iordanis conversus est retrorsum
The sea saw [it], and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4 montes exultaverunt ut arietes colles sicut agni ovium
The mountains skipped like rams, [and] the little hills like lambs.
5 quid est tibi mare quod fugisti et tu Iordanis quia conversus es retrorsum
What [ailed] thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, [that] thou wast driven back?
6 montes exultastis sicut arietes et colles sicut agni ovium
Ye mountains, [that] ye skipped like rams; [and] ye little hills, like lambs?
7 a facie Domini mota est terra a facie Dei Iacob
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8 qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum et rupem in fontes aquarum
Which turned the rock [into] a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
