1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2Judah was His sanctuary, and Israel was His kingdom.
3The sea saw it and fled; Jordan was driven back.
4The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
5What ailed you, O sea, that you fled? O Jordan, that you turned back,
6O mountains that skipped like rams, O little hills like lambs?
7Earth, tremble at the presence of the 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.
