A Psalm from the Exodus

1
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:
2
Judea made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3
The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
4
The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like the lambs of the flock.
5
What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O Jordan, that thou wast turned back?
6
Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs of the flock?
7
At the presence of the Lord the earth was moved, at the presence of the God of Jacob:
8
Who turned the rock into pools of water, and the stony hill into fountains of waters.

A Psalm from the Exodus

1
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language,
2
Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3
The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.
4
The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.
5
What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?
6
You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You little hills, like lambs?
7
Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8
who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
