Ex 12.51
When the people of Israel left Egypt,
when Jacob's descendants left that foreign land,
2Judah became the Lord's holy people,
Israel became his own possession.

Ex 14.21; Josh 3.16 The Red Sea looked and ran away;
the River Jordan stopped flowing.
4The mountains skipped like goats;
the hills jumped about like lambs.
5What happened, Sea, to make you run away?
And you, O Jordan, why did you stop flowing?
6You mountains, why did you skip like goats?
You hills, why did you jump about like lambs?
7Tremble, earth, at the Lord's coming,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,

Ex 17.1–7; Num 20.2–13 who changes rocks into pools of water
and solid cliffs into flowing springs.

Tehillim (Psa) 114
114
1When Isra’el came out of Egypt,
the house of Ya‘akov from a people of foreign speech,
2Y’hudah became [God’s] sanctuary,
Isra’el his domain.
3The sea saw this and fled;
the Yarden turned back;
4the mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like young sheep.
5Why is it, sea, that you flee?
Why, Yarden, do you turn back?
6Why, mountains, do you skip like rams;
and you hills like young sheep?
7Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Ya‘akov,
8who turned the rock into a pool of water,
flint into flowing spring.
