Psalms 114

1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

1When Israel came out of Egypt, the children of Jacob from a people whose language was strange to them;

2Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.

2Judah became his holy place, and Israel his kingdom.

3The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.

3The sea saw it, and went in flight; Jordan was turned back.

4The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.

4The mountains were jumping like goats, and the little hills like lambs.

5What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?

5What was wrong with you, O sea, that you went in flight? O Jordan, that you were turned back?

6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?

6You mountains, why were you jumping like goats, and you little hills like lambs?

7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;

7Be troubled, O earth, before the Lord, before the God of Jacob;

8Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a fountain of waters.

8Who made the rock into a water-spring, and the hard stone into a fountain.
