Psalms 114

1 When Israel came out of Egypt, Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,

1 When Israel came out of Egypt— when the house of Jacob came out from a people who spoke a different language—

2 Judah became God’s sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

2 Judah was God's sanctuary; Israel was God's territory.

3 The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back;

3 The sea saw it happen and ran away; the Jordan River retreated!

4 the mountains leaped like rams, the hills like lambs.

4 The mountains leaped away like rams; the hills leaped away like lambs!

5 Why was it, sea, that you fled? Why, Jordan, did you turn back?

5 Sea, why did you run away? Jordan, why did you retreat?

6 Why, mountains, did you leap like rams, you hills, like lambs?

6 Mountains, why did you leap away like rams? Hills, why did you leap away like lambs?

7 Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

7 Earth: Tremble before the Lord! Tremble before the God of Jacob,

8 who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water.

8 the one who turned that rock into a pool of water, that flint stone into a spring of water!
