1When Israel came out of Egypt, the children of Jacob from a people whose language was strange to them;
1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2Judah became his holy place, and Israel his kingdom.
2 Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3The sea saw it, and went in flight; Jordan was turned back.
3 The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;
4The mountains were jumping like goats, and the little hills like lambs.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
5What was wrong with you, O sea, that you went in flight? O Jordan, that you were turned back?
5 What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?
6You mountains, why were you jumping like goats, and you little hills like lambs?
6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?
