Psalms 114

1 In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,

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 has seen, and flees, The Jordan turns backward.

Mare vidit, et fugit; Jordanis conversus est retrorsum.

4 The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.

Montes exsultaverunt ut arietes, et colles sicut agni ovium.

5 What is [ailing] you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, you turn back!

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

6 O mountains, you skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!

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

7 From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,

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

8 He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!

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