Psalms 114

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