Psalms 114

1 When Israel came forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

Alleluja. [In exitu Israël de Ægypto, domus Jacob de populo barbaro,

2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominion.

facta est Judæa sanctificatio ejus; Israël potestas ejus.

3 The sea saw it, and fled; the Jordan turned backward.

Mare vidit, et fugit; Jordanis conversus est retrorsum.

4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like young sheep.

Montes exsultaverunt ut arietes, et colles sicut agni ovium.

5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? thou Jordan, that thou turnest backward?

Quid est tibi, mare, quod fugisti? et tu, Jordanis, quia conversus es retrorsum?

6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; ye hills, like young sheep?

montes, exsultastis sicut arietes? et colles, sicut agni ovium?

7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

A facie Domini mota est terra, a facie Dei Jacob:

8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum, et rupem in fontes aquarum.
