| | 1 | When Israel came out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue, | |
| | 2 | Judah became God's sanctuary, Israel his dominion. | |
| | 3 | The sea looked and fled, the Jordan turned back; | |
| | 4 | the mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs. | |
| | 5 | Why was it, O sea, that you fled, O Jordan, that you turned back, | |
| | 6 | you mountains, that you skipped like rams, you hills, like lambs? | |
| | 7 | Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob, | |
| | 8 | who turned the rock into a pool, the hard rock into springs of water. | |
