Psalms 114— NRS

1When Israel went out from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

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

3The sea looked and fled; Jordan turned back.

4The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.

5Why is it, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back?

6O mountains, that you skip like rams? O hills, like lambs?

7Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

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