Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)

114 When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

² Judah was his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

³ The sea saw it and fled, the Jordan turned back;

⁴ The mountains skipped like rams, the hills like lambs.

⁵ What ailed thee, thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou turnedst back?

⁶ Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams? ye hills, like lambs?

⁷ Tremble, thou earth, 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.

¹⁹ For the horse of Pharaoh, with his chariots and with his horsemen, came into the sea, and Jehovah brought again the waters of the sea upon them; and the children of Israel went on dry [ground] through the midst of the sea.

²⁰ And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took the tambour in her hand, and all the women went out after her with tambours and with dances.

²¹ And Miriam answered them, Sing to Jehovah, for he is highly exalted: The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

⁷ But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as those who are of the nations: for they think they shall be heard through their much speaking.

⁸ Be not ye therefore like them, for your Father knows of what things ye have need before ye beg [anything] of him.

⁹ Thus therefore pray *ye*: Our Father who art in the heavens, let thy name be sanctified,

¹⁰ let thy kingdom come, let thy will be done as in heaven so upon the earth;

¹¹ give us to-day our needed bread,

¹² and forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors,

¹³ and lead us not into temptation, but save us from evil.

¹⁴ For if ye forgive men their offences, your heavenly Father also will forgive you [yours],

¹⁵ but if ye do not forgive men their offences, neither will your Father forgive your offences.
