Psalms 114

God’s Deliverance of Israel from Egypt.

1When Israel went forth 1from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of 2strange language,2Judah became 3His sanctuary, Israel, 4His dominion.

3The 5sea looked and fled; The 6Jordan turned back.4The mountains 7skipped like rams, The hills, like lambs.5What 8ails you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back?6O mountains, that you skip like rams? O hills, like lambs?

79Tremble, O earth, before the Lord, Before the God of Jacob,8Who 10turned the rock into a 11pool of water, The 12flint into a fountain of water.
