< Psalms 114 >

1 When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
WHEN Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3 The sea saw it, and fled; Jordan was driven back.
The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like young sheep.
The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?
What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
6 Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; ye little hills, like young sheep?
Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8 Which turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
