Psalm 114

When Israel went out from Egypt, 
    the house of Jacob from a people of strange language, 
Judah became his sanctuary, 
Israel his dominion. 
The sea looked and fled; 
Jordan turned back. 
The mountains skipped like rams, 
    the hills like lambs. 
What ails you, O sea, that you flee? 
O Jordan, that you turn back? 
O mountains, that you skip like rams? 
O hills, like lambs? 
Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, 
    at the presence of the God of Jacob, 
    who turns the rock into a pool of water, 
    the flint into a spring of water.
