2 Judah became his holy place and Israel became his kingdom.

3 The Red Sea looked at this and ran away. The Jordan River turned back.
3 The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back;
4 The mountains jumped like rams. The hills jumped like lambs.
4 the mountains leaped like rams, the hills like lambs.
5 Red Sea, why did you run away? Jordan River, what made you turn back?
5 Why was it, sea, that you fled? Why, Jordan, did you turn back?
6 Mountains, what made you jump like rams? Hills, what made you jump like lambs?
6 Why, mountains, did you leap like rams, you hills, like lambs?
7 Earth, tremble in the presence of the Lord, in the presence of the God of Jacob.
7 Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 He turns a rock into a pool filled with water and turns flint into a spring flowing with water.
8 who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water.
