Psalm 114
1When Israel came out of Egypt—
when the house of Jacob came out
from a people who spoke a different language—
2Judah was God’s sanctuary;
Israel was God’s territory.
3The sea saw it happen and ran away;
the Jordan River retreated!
4The mountains leaped away like rams;
the hills leaped away like lambs!
5Sea, why did you run away?
Jordan, why did you retreat?
6Mountains, why did you leap away like rams?
Hills, why did you leap away like lambs?
7Earth: Tremble before the Lord!
Tremble before the God of Jacob,
8the one who turned that rock into a pool of water,
that flint stone into a spring of water!

Psalm 114
114
Tremble at the Presence of the Lord
1When #Ex. 12:37 Israel went out from Egypt,
the house of Jacob from #Ps. 81:5; [Gen. 42:23]a people of strange language,
2Judah became his #Ps. 78:68, 69; [Ex. 15:17; 25:8]sanctuary,
Israel his dominion.
3 # See Ps. 77:16 The sea looked and fled;
# See Josh. 3:13-16 Jordan turned back.
4 # [Ps. 18:7; 29:6; Ex. 19:18] The mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like lambs.
5What #[Hab. 3:8]ails you, O sea, that you flee?
O Jordan, that you turn back?
6O mountains, that you skip like rams?
O hills, like lambs?

Ps. 96:9
Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8who turns #Num. 20:11; See Ps. 78:15 the rock into #See Ps. 107:35 a pool of water,
#
Deut. 8:15
the flint into a spring of water.
