Psalms 114

MSG

NIV

1 After Israel left Egypt, the clan of Jacob left those barbarians behind;
1 When Israel came out of Egypt, Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
2 Judah became holy land for him, Israel the place of holy rule.
2 Judah became God’s sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3 Sea took one look and ran the other way; River Jordan turned around and ran off.
3 The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back;
4 The mountains turned playful and skipped like rams, the hills frolicked like spring lambs.
4 the mountains leaped like rams, the hills like lambs.
5 What's wrong with you, Sea, that you ran away? and you, River Jordan, that you turned and ran off?
5 Why was it, sea, that you fled? Why, Jordan, did you turn back?
6 And mountains, why did you skip like rams? and you, hills, frolic like spring lambs?
6 Why, mountains, did you leap like rams, you hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, Earth! You're in the Lord's presence! in the presence of Jacob's God.
7 Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 He turned the rock into a pool of cool water, turned flint into fresh spring water.
8 who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water.
