< Psalms 114 >

1 Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people, 2 Judea became his sanctuary, [and] Israel his dominion. 3 The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back. 4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs. 5 What [ailed] you, O sea, that you fled? and you Jordan, that you were turned back? 6 [You] mountains, that you skipped like rams, and [you] hills, like lambs? 7 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 flint into fountains of water.
