1When Israel went out from Egypt,the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2Judah became his sanctuary,Israel his dominion.
3The sea looked and fled;Jordan turned back.
4The mountains skipped like rams,the 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 hills, like lambs?
7Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8who turns the rock into a pool of water,the flint into a spring of water.
