New Century Version

Psalms 114

God Brought Israel from Egypt

1 When the Israelites went out of Egypt,
    the people of Jacob left that foreign country.
2 Then Judah became God's holy place;
    Israel became the land he ruled.

3 The Red Sea looked and ran away;
    the Jordan River turned back.
4 The mountains danced like sheep
    and the hills like little lambs.
5 Sea, why did you run away?
    Jordan, why did you turn back?
6 Mountains, why did you dance like sheep?
    Hills, why did you dance like little lambs?

7 Earth, shake with fear before the Lord,
    before the God of Jacob.
8 He turned a rock into a pool of water,
    a hard rock into a spring of water.
