Psalm 114
1When Israel left Egypt,
when Jacob’s family left people who spoke a foreign language,
2Judah became his holy place and Israel became his kingdom.
3The Red Sea looked at this and ran away.
The Jordan River turned back.
4The mountains jumped like rams.
The hills jumped like lambs.
5Red Sea, why did you run away?
Jordan River, what made you turn back?
6Mountains, what made you jump like rams?
Hills, what made you jump like lambs?
7Earth, tremble in the presence of the Lord,
in the presence of the God of Jacob.
8He turns a rock into a pool filled with water
and turns flint into a spring flowing with 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.
