Psalm 114

 1 When Israel came out of Egypt,
   the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
2 Judah became God’s sanctuary,
   Israel his dominion.

 3 The sea looked and fled,
   the Jordan turned back;
4 the mountains skipped like rams,
   the hills like lambs.
 5 Why was it, O sea, that you fled,
   O Jordan, that you turned back,
6 you mountains, that you skipped like rams,
   you hills, like lambs?
 7 Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
   at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 who turned the rock into a pool,
   the hard rock into springs of water.
