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.

2Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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