Psalm 114
1 When Israel came out of Egypt,
Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
1 When Israel came out of Egypt,
Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
2 Judah became God’s sanctuary,
Israel his dominion.
Israel his dominion.
3 The sea looked and fled,
the Jordan turned back;
the Jordan turned back;
4 the mountains leaped like rams,
the hills like lambs.
the hills like lambs.
5 Why was it, sea, that you fled?
Why, Jordan, did you turn back?
Why, Jordan, did you turn back?
6 Why, mountains, did you leap like rams,
you hills, like lambs?
you hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 who turned the rock into a pool,
the hard rock into springs of water.
the hard rock into springs of water.
