Chapter 114
Psalm 114
1 When Israel came out of Egypt,(a)
Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
2 Judah(b) became God's sanctuary,(c)
Israel his dominion.
3 The sea looked and fled,(d)
the Jordan turned back;(e)
4 the mountains leaped(f) like rams,
the hills like lambs.
5 Why was it, sea, that you fled?(g)
Why, Jordan, did you turn back?
6 Why, mountains, did you leap like rams,
you hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, earth,(h) at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 who turned the rock into a pool,
the hard rock into springs of water.(i)
