[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.
