The Book of Psalms, Chapter 114
|
| 1 |
When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people
of strange language;
|
| 2 |
Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
|
| 3 |
The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
|
| 4 |
The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like
lambs.
|
| 5 |
What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan,
that thou wast driven back?
|
| 6 |
Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills,
like lambs?
|
| 7 |
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the
presence of the God of Jacob;
|
| 8 |
Which turned the rock into a standing water, the flint into a
fountain of waters.
