Psalm 114
Christian Standard Bible

Psalm 114

God’s Deliverance of Israel

1 When Israel came out of Egypt—
the house of Jacob from a people
who spoke a foreign language(A)—
2 Judah became his sanctuary,
Israel, his dominion.(B)

3 The sea looked and fled;(C)
the Jordan turned back.(D)
4 The mountains skipped like rams,
the hills, like lambs.(E)
5 Why was it, sea, that you fled?
Jordan, that you turned back?(F)
6 Mountains, that you skipped like rams?
Hills, like lambs?(G)

7 Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,(H)
8 who turned the rock into a pool,
the flint into a spring.(I)

Psalm 114
Common English Bible

Psalm 114

114 When Israel came out of Egypt—
    when the house of Jacob came out
    from a people who spoke a different language—
2     Judah was God’s sanctuary;
    Israel was God’s territory.

3 The sea saw it happen and ran away;
    the Jordan River retreated!
4 The mountains leaped away like rams;
    the hills leaped away like lambs!
5 Sea, why did you run away?
    Jordan, why did you retreat?
6     Mountains, why did you leap away like rams?
    Hills, why did you leap away like lambs?

7 Earth: Tremble before the Lord!
    Tremble before the God of Jacob,
8         the one who turned that rock into a pool of water,
        that flint stone into a spring of water!
