Psalms 114

   |   

A Passover Song

1 (a)When the people of Israel left Egypt,
    when Jacob's descendants left that foreign land,
2 Judah became the Lord's holy people,
    Israel became his own possession.

3 (b)The Red Sea looked and ran away;
    the Jordan River stopped flowing.
4 The mountains skipped like goats;
    the hills jumped around like lambs.

5 What happened, Sea, to make you run away?
    And you, O Jordan, why did you stop flowing?
6 You mountains, why did you skip like goats?
    You hills, why did you jump around like lambs?

7 Tremble, earth, at the Lord's coming,
    at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8 (c)who changes rocks into pools of water
    and solid cliffs into flowing springs.
