A Psalm of Exodus
When Israel departed from Egypt,
the house of Jacob from a people of foreign tongue,
Judah became God’s sanctuary,
Israel His dominion.
The sea observed and fled;
the Jordan turned back;
the mountains skipped like rams,
the hills like lambs.
Why was it, O sea, that you fled,
O Jordan, that you turned back,
O mountains, that you skipped like rams,
O hills, like lambs?
Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord,
at the presence of the God of Jacob,
who turned the rock into a pool,
the flint into a fountain of water!
