←Prev   Psalms 114 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



114:1  When the people of Israel left Egypt, when Jacob's descendants left that foreign land,
114:2  Judah became the Lord's holy people, Israel became his own possession.
114:3  The Red Sea looked and ran away; the Jordan River stopped flowing.
114:4  The mountains skipped like goats; the hills jumped around like lambs.
114:5  What happened, Sea, to make you run away? And you, O Jordan, why did you stop flowing?
114:6  You mountains, why did you skip like goats? You hills, why did you jump around like lambs?
114:7  Tremble, earth, at the Lord's coming, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
114:8  who changes rocks into pools of water and solid cliffs into flowing springs.
