¹When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language, ²Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion. ³The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back. ⁴The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs. ⁵What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back? ⁶You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You little hills, like lambs? ⁷Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob, ⁸who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
