< Psalms 114 >

1 Alleluia. At the departure of Israel from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people: 2 Judea was made his sanctuary; Israel was made his power. 3 The sea looked, and it fled. The Jordan was turned back again. 4 The mountains exulted like rams, and the hills like lambs among the sheep. 5 What happened to you, O sea, so that you fled, and to you, O Jordan, so that you were turned back again? 6 What happened to you, O mountains, so that you exulted like rams, and to you, O hills, so that you exulted like lambs among the sheep? 7 Before the face of the Lord, the earth was moved, before the face of the God of Jacob. 8 He converted the rock into pools of water, and the cliff into fountains of waters.
