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; The Jordan was driven back.
4 - The mountains skipped like rams, The little hills like lambs.
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 lambs?
7 - Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, At the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 - Who turned the rock into a pool of water, The flint into a fountain of waters.
