THE BOOK OF
PSALMS
PSALM 114
The Lord governs the sea and the land for the blessing of his people.
  1 When Israel went out of aEgypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language;
  2 Judah was his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
  3 The sea saw it, and afled: Jordan was driven back.
  4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
  5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?
  6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs?
  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 standing water, the flint into a fountain of awaters.
