Psalm 114
In exitu Israel
1
When Israel came out of Egypt *
and the house of Jacob from among the strange people,
2
Judah was his sanctuary *
and Israel his dominion.
3
The sea saw that, and fled *
Jordan was driven back.
4
The mountains skipped like rams *
and the little hills like young sheep.
5
What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest *
and thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
6
Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams *
and ye little hills, like young sheep?
7
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord *
at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8
Who turned the hard rock into a standing water *
and the flint-stone into a springing well.
