Psalms 114

1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:

2Judea made his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.

4The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like the lambs of the flock.

5What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou didst flee: and thou, O Jordan, that thou wast turned back?

6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs of the flock?

7At the presence of the Lord the earth was moved, at the presence of the God of Jacob:

8Who turned the rock into pools of water, and the stony hill into fountains of waters.

1Alleluja. [In exitu Israël de Ægypto, domus Jacob de populo barbaro,

2facta est Judæa sanctificatio ejus; Israël potestas ejus.

3Mare vidit, et fugit; Jordanis conversus est retrorsum.

4Montes exsultaverunt ut arietes, et colles sicut agni ovium.

5Quid est tibi, mare, quod fugisti? et tu, Jordanis, quia conversus es retrorsum?

6montes, exsultastis sicut arietes? et colles, sicut agni ovium?

7A facie Domini mota est terra, a facie Dei Jacob:

8qui convertit petram in stagna aquarum, et rupem in fontes aquarum.

1Alleluia. At the departure of Israel from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people:

2Judea was made his sanctuary; Israel was made his power.

3The sea looked, and it fled. The Jordan was turned back again.

4The mountains exulted like rams, and the hills like lambs among the sheep.

5What happened to you, O sea, so that you fled, and to you, O Jordan, so that you were turned back again?

6What happened to you, O mountains, so that you exulted like rams, and to you, O hills, so that you exulted like lambs among the sheep?

7Before the face of the Lord, the earth was moved, before the face of the God of Jacob.

8He converted the rock into pools of water, and the cliff into fountains of waters.
