1When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language, 2Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion. 3The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back. 4The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs. 5What ails thee, O thou sea, that thou flee? Thou Jordan, that thou turn back? 6Ye mountains, that ye skip like rams, ye little hills, like lambs? 7Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of LORD, at the presence of the God of Jacob, 8who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
