Psalms 114

1In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,

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

2Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

2 Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.

3 The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;

4The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.

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

5What--to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou turnest back!

5 What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?

6O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!

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

7From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,

7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of theGod of Jacob,

8He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!

8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
