Psalms 114

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, and the house of Iaakob from the barbarous people,

Halleluja! Da Israel drog fra Ægypten, Jakobs Hus fra det stammende Folk,

2 Iudah was his sanctification, and Israel his dominion.

da blev Juda hans Helligdom, Israel blev hans Rige.

3 The Sea sawe it and fled: Iorden was turned backe.

Havet så det og flyede, Jordan trak sig tilbage,

4 The mountaines leaped like rams, and the hils as lambes.

Bjergene sprang som Vædre, Højene hopped som Lam.

5 What ailed thee, O Sea, that thou fleddest? O Iorden, why wast thou turned backe?

Hvad fejler du, Hav, at du flyr, Jordan, hvi går du tilbage,

6 Ye mountaines, why leaped ye like rams, and ye hils as lambes?

hvi springer I Bjerge som Vædre, hvi hopper I Høje som Lam?

7 The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Iaakob,

Skælv, Jord, for HERRENs Åsyn, for Jakobs Guds Åsyn,

8 Which turneth the rocke into waterpooles, and the flint into a fountaine of water.

han, som gør Klipper til Vanddrag, til Kildevæld hården Flint!
