1 W hen Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language;

2 J udah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 T he sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.

4 T he mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.

5 W hat was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?

6 Y ou mountains, that you skipped like rams; you little hills, like lambs?

7 T remble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

8 w ho turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
