Psalms 114

Psalm 114

God's Deliverance of Israel from Egypt.

1When Israel went forth from Egypt,

The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

2Judah became His sanctuary,

Israel, His dominion.

3The sea looked and fled;

The Jordan turned back.

4The mountains skipped like rams,

The hills, like lambs.

5What ails you, O sea, that you flee?

O Jordan, that you turn back?

6O mountains, that you skip like rams?

O hills, like lambs?

7Tremble, O earth, before the Lord,

Before the God of Jacob,

8Who turned the rock into a pool of water,

The flint into a fountain of water.
