When Israel went out of Egypt,
the house of Jacob from a people of foreign 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 was it, you sea, that you fled?
You Jordan, that you turned back?
6
You mountains, that you skipped like rams?
You little hills, like lambs?
7
Tremble, you 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 spring of waters.
