Psalms 114 — NET Bible

1When Israel left Egypt, when the family of Jacob left a foreign nation behind,

2Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his kingdom.

3The sea looked and fled; the Jordan River turned back.

4The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.

5Why do you flee, O sea? Why do you turn back, O Jordan River?

6Why do you skip like rams, O mountains, like lambs, O hills?

7Tremble, O earth, before the Lord — before the God of Jacob,

8who turned a rock into a pool of water, a hard rock into springs of water!
