Psalm 114

New Coverdale Version

When Israel came out of Egypt, * and the house of Jacob from among a people of a foreign tongue,

Judah was God’s sanctuary, * and Israel his dominion.

The sea beheld it and fled; * Jordan was driven back.

The mountains skipped like rams, * and the little hills like young sheep.

What ailed you, O sea, that you fled? * O Jordan, that you were driven back?

You mountains, that you skipped like rams, * and you little hills like young sheep?

Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, * at the presence of the God of Jacob,

Who turned the hard rock into a pool of water, * and the flint stone into a springing well.
