¹ When Israel left Egypt,
when the family of Jacob left a foreign nation behind,
² Judah became his sanctuary,
Israel his kingdom.
³ The sea looked and fled;
the Jordan River turned back.
⁴ The mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like lambs.
⁵ Why do you flee, O sea?
Why do you turn back, O Jordan River?
⁶ Why do you skip like rams, O mountains,
like lambs, O hills?
⁷ Tremble, O earth, before the Lord—
before the God of Jacob,
⁸ who turned a rock into a pool of water,
a hard rock into springs of water!
