PSALM 114 L.M.

1 When Isr’el out of Egypt came,
From people of a foreign tongue,
2 Then Judah was God’s holy place;
In Israèl was set his throne.

3 The sea beheld and swiftly fled;
The Jordan river turned away.
4 The lofty mountains skipped like rams,
The hills like little lambs at play.

5 O sea, why was it that you fled?
Why, Jordan, did you turn away?
6 Why, mountains did you skip like rams,
You hills, like little lambs at play?

7 Tremble, O earth, before the Lord,
Before the face of Jacob’s God,
8 Who turned the rock into a pool;
From solid rock the waters flowed.
