1.
When Israel came out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
|
|
2.
Judah became God's sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
|
|
3.
The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back;
|
|
4.
the mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.
|
|
5.
Why was it, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, that you turned back,
|
|
6.
you mountains, that you skipped like rams, you hills, like lambs?
|
|
7.
Tremble, O earth, 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.
