Psalm 114:1-8 - Praise To God For His Works During The Exodus

¹ When Israel went forth from Egypt,
The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
² Judah became His sanctuary,
Israel, His dominion.

³ The sea looked and fled;
The Jordan turned back.
⁴ The mountains skipped like rams,
The hills, like lambs.
⁵ What ails you, O sea, that you flee?
O Jordan, that you turn back?
⁶ O mountains, that you skip like rams?
O hills, like lambs?

⁷ Tremble, O earth, before the Lord,
Before the God of Jacob,
⁸ Who turned the rock into a pool of water,
The flint into a fountain of water.
