1When Israel came out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His kingdom.
3The sea looked and fled; the Jordan turned back;
4the mountains skipped like rams; the little hills like lambs!
5What ails you, O sea, that you flee? O Jordan, that you turn back?
6O mountains, that you skip like rams? O little hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, O earth, from the face of the Lord, from the face of the God of Jacob;
8who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
