Psalmorum 114

1 alleluia in exitu Israhel de Aegypto domus Iacob de populo barbaro

When Israel came forth from 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 beheld, and fled; The Jordan turned back.

4 montes exultaverunt ut arietes colles sicut agni ovium

The mountains skipped like rams, And the hills like lambs.

5 quid est tibi mare quod fugisti et tu Iordanis quia conversus es retrorsum

What aileth thee, O thou sea! that thou fleest? Thou, Jordan, that thou runnest back?

6 montes exultastis sicut arietes et colles sicut agni ovium

Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams, And ye hills like lambs?

7 a facie Domini mota est terra a facie Dei Iacob

Tremble, O 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

Who turned the rock into a standing lake, And the flint into a fountain of water!
