New Living Translation

    

Psalms 114

 1  When the Israelites escaped from Egypt—
  when the family of Jacob left that foreign land—
 2  the land of Judah became God's sanctuary,
  and Israel became his kingdom.

 3  The Red Sea [3]  saw them coming and hurried out of their way!
  The water of the Jordan River turned away.
 4  The mountains skipped like rams,
  the hills like lambs!
 5  What's wrong, Red Sea, that made you hurry out of their way?
  What happened, Jordan River, that you turned away?
 6  Why, mountains, did you skip like rams?
  Why, hills, like lambs?

 7  Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
  at the presence of the God of Jacob.
 8  He turned the rock into a pool of water;
  yes, a spring of water flowed from solid rock.
<<  114:3 Hebrew the sea; also in 114:5.
