Tremble at the Presence of the Lord

Chapter 114

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

2. Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3. The sea looked and fled; Jordan turned back.

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

5. What ails you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back?

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

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

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