1. When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
2. Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3. The sea saw it, and fled; Jordan was driven back.
4. The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like young sheep.
5. What aileth thee, O thou sea, that thou fleest? thou Jordan, that thou turnest back?
6. Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams; ye little hills, like young sheep?
7. Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8. Which turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
