Psalm 114

Christian Standard Bible

Psalm 114

God’s Deliverance of Israel

¹When Israel came out of Egypt—
the house of Jacob from a people
who spoke a foreign language^(A)—
²Judah became his sanctuary,
Israel, his dominion.^(B)

³The sea looked and fled;^(C)
the Jordan turned back.^(D)
⁴The mountains skipped like rams,
the hills, like lambs.^(E)
⁵Why was it, sea, that you fled?
Jordan, that you turned back?^(F)
⁶Mountains, that you skipped like rams?
Hills, like lambs?^(G)

⁷Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,^(H)
⁸who turned the rock into a pool,
the flint into a spring.^(I)
