Psalms 114

1 When Israel went out of Egypt, Jacob’s house from a barbarous people,

以色列出了埃及， 雅各家离开说异言之民；

2 God chose Judah for himself, Israel became his kingdom.

那时，犹大为主的圣所， 以色列为他所治理的国度。

3 The sea saw it, and fled, Jordan river ran backwards.

沧海看见就奔逃； 约旦河也倒流。

4 Mountains skipped like rams, hills like the young of the flock.

大山踊跃，如公羊； 小山跳舞，如羊羔。

5 Why, sea, do you flee? Jordan, why run backwards?

沧海啊，你为何奔逃？ 约旦哪，你为何倒流？

6 Mountains, why skip ram-like? Why, hills, like the young of the flock?

大山哪，你为何踊跃，如公羊？ 小山哪，你为何跳舞，如羊羔？

7 Earth, tremble before the Lord, at the presence of Jacob’s God,

大地啊，你因见主的面， 就是雅各 神的面，便要震动。

8 who turns rocks into pools of water, and flint into fountains of water.

他叫磐石变为水池， 叫坚石变为泉源。
