Psalm 114

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 When Isra'el came out of Egypt, the house of Ya'akov from a people of foreign speech,

2 Y'hudah became [God's] sanctuary, Isra'el his domain.

3 The sea saw this and fled; the Yarden turned back;

4 the mountains skipped like rams, the hills like young sheep.

5 Why is it, sea, that you flee? Why, Yarden, do you turn back?

6 Why, mountains, do you skip like rams; and you hills like young sheep?

7 Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Ya'akov,

8 who turned the rock into a pool of water, flint into flowing spring.

The Message Bible MSG

1 After Israel left Egypt, the clan of Jacob left those barbarians behind;

2 Judah became holy land for him, Israel the place of holy rule.

3 Sea took one look and ran the other way; River Jordan turned around and ran off.

4 The mountains turned playful and skipped like rams, the hills frolicked like spring lambs.

5 What's wrong with you, Sea, that you ran away? and you, River Jordan, that you turned and ran off?

6 And mountains, why did you skip like rams? and you, hills, frolic like spring lambs?

7 Tremble, Earth! You're in the Lord's presence! in the presence of Jacob's God.

8 He turned the rock into a pool of cool water, turned flint into fresh spring water.
