Psalm 114 In exitu Israel
1 Hallelujah! When Israel came out of E-gypt, *
the house of Jacob from a people of strange speech,
2 Judah became God’s sanctu-ar-y *
and Israel her do-minion.
3 The sea beheld it and fled; *
Jordan turned and went back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams, *
and the little hills like young sheep.
5 What ailed you, O sea, that you fled? *
O Jordan, that you turned back?
6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams? *
you little hills like young sheep?
7 Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, *
at the presence of the God of Ja-cob,
8 Who turned the hard rock into a pool of wa-ter *
and flintstone into a flow-ing spring.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spir-it: *
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. A-men.
