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