Psalm 114God's Deliverance of Israel
-
When Israel came out of Egypt-- the house of Jacob from a people who spoke a foreign language--
-
Judah became his sanctuary, Israel, his dominion.
-
The sea looked and fled; the Jordan turned back.
-
The mountains skipped like rams, the hills, like lambs.
-
Why was it, sea, that you fled? Jordan, that you turned back?
-
Mountains, that you skipped like rams? Hills, like lambs?
-
Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
-
who turned the rock into a pool, the flint into a spring.
