1. |
When Israel went forth out of Egypt, The house of Jacob from a people of strange language; |
2. |
Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion. |
3. |
The sea saw it, and fled; The Jordan was driven back. |
4. |
The mountains skipped like rams, The little hills like lambs. |
5. |
What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? Thou Jordan, that thou turnest back? |
6. |
Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; Ye little hills, like lambs? |
7. |
Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob, |
8. |
Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of waters. |
