1. When Israel went out of Egypt,

1. the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;

2. Judah was his sanctuary,

2. and Israel his dominion.

3. The sea saw it, and fled:

3. Jordan was driven back.

4. The mountains skipped like rams,

4. and the little hills like lambs.

5. What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest?

5. thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?

6. ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams;

6. and ye little hills, like lambs?

7. Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord,

7. at the presence of the God of Jacob;

8. which turned the rock into a standing water,

8. the flint into a fountain of waters.
