Psalms 114
114
A Passover Song
1 #
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,
8 #
Ex 17.1–7; Num 20.2–13 who changes rocks into pools of water
and solid cliffs into flowing springs.

Psalms 114
114
1In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,
2Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.
4The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.
5What — to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou turnest back!
6O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!
7From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,
8He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
