Psalms 114

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:

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

2 Judea made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

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

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

The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.

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

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

5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O Jordan, that thou wast turned back?

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

6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs of the flock?

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

7 At the presence of the Lord the earth was moved, at the presence of the God of Jacob:

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

8 Who turned the rock into pools of water, and the stony hill into fountains of waters.

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