1 In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,

2 Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

3 The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.

4 The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.

5 What — to thee, O sea, that thou fleest ? O Jordan, thou turnest back !

6 O mountains, ye skip as rams ! O heights, as sons of a flock !

7 From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,

8 He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters !
