 1 When Israel left Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language, 2 Judah was His sanctuary, and Israel was His kingdom. 3 The sea saw it and fled. jordan was driven back. 4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs. 5 What ailed you, O sea, that you fled? O Jordan, that you turned back, 6 O mountains that skipped like rams, O little hills like lambs? 7 earth, tremble at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob, 8 who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a fountain of waters.
