Psalm 114. In exitu Israel.
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.
