Psalms 114

Psalm 114

God’s Deliverance of Israel

1When Israel came out of Egypt — the house of Jacob from a people who spoke a foreign language —2

3Judah became his sanctuary, Israel, his dominion.4

5The sea looked and fled; the Jordan turned back.6

7The mountains skipped like rams, the hills, like lambs.8

9Why was it, sea, that you fled? Jordan, that you turned back?10

11Mountains, that you skipped like rams? Hills, like lambs?12

13Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,14

15who turned the rock into a pool, the flint into a spring.16
