Psalms 114

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

When Israel came forth from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

2 Judea made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

Judah was his sanctuary, And Israel his dominion.

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

The sea beheld, and fled; The Jordan 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 aileth thee, O thou sea! that thou fleest? Thou, Jordan, that thou runnest back?

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

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

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

Tremble, O earth! 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 a standing lake, And the flint into a fountain of water!
