A Psalm from the Exodus

1
In the going out of Israel from Egypt, || The house of Jacob from a strange people,
2
Judah became His sanctuary, || Israel his dominion.
3
The sea has seen, and flees, || The Jordan turns backward.
4
The mountains have skipped as rams, || Heights as sons of a flock.
5
What is [ailing] you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, you turn back!
6
O mountains, you skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!
7
From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, || From before the God of Jacob,
8
He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, || The flint to a fountain 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.
