Psalms 114

1 Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,

Da Israel aus Ägypten zog, das Haus Jakob aus dem fremden Volk,

2 Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion.

da ward Juda sein Heiligtum, Israel seine HERRSChaft.

3 The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.

Das Meer sah und floh; der Jordan wandte sich zurück;

4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.

die Berge hüpfeten wie die Lämmer, die Hügel wie die jungen Schafe.

5 What [ailed] you, O sea, that you fled? and you Jordan, that you were turned back?

Was war dir, du Meer, daß du flohest, und du Jordan, daß du dich zurückwandtest;

6 [You] mountains, that you skipped like rams, and [you] hills, like lambs?

ihr Berge, daß ihr hüpfetet wie die Lämmer, ihr Hügel, wie die jungen Schafe?

7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

Vor dem HERRN bebete die Erde, vor dem Gott Jakobs,

8 who turned the rock into pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.

der den Fels wandelte in Wassersee und die Steine in Wasserbrunnen.
