Psalms 114
God’s Rescue of Israel from Egypt.
1When Israel came out of Egypt,
The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2Judah became His sanctuary,
And Israel His dominion.
3The [Red] Sea looked and fled;
The Jordan turned back.
4The mountains leaped like rams,
The [little] hills, like lambs.
5What ails you, O sea, that you flee?
O Jordan, that you turn back?
6O mountains, that you leap like rams,
O [little] hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
At the presence of the God of Jacob (Israel),
8Who turned the rock into a pool of water,
The flint into a fountain of water.
