Psalm 114

Tremble at the Presence of the Lord

1  When Israel went out from Egypt,
the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2  Judah became his sanctuary,
Israel his dominion.

3  The sea looked and fled;
Jordan turned back.
4  The mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like lambs.

5  What ails you, O sea, that you flee?
O Jordan, that you turn back?
6  O mountains, that you skip like rams?
O hills, like lambs?

7  Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8  who turns the rock into a pool of water,
the flint into a spring of water.

Psalm 114

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

2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

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

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

5 What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?

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

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

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